Pinterest Announces Top 100 Trends For 2017
We love keeping up with the latest trends at The Longest Stay. Whether it’s how we should be dressing our interiors or the latest health care or even what shoes are in this season! Where better to look for inspiration for the best trends for this year than Pinterest? They recently released their 100 for 2017 which includes everything from delicious food recipes to travel tips to various beauty how tos. Today’s blog takes a look into some of the interior trends set out by Pinterest with our unique take on them.
If you took the time last year to keep up with all the trends then this one might seem a little familiar. Farmhouse style interiors are reminiscent of the hygge concept that encourages a warm, comfortable and simplistically styled home. The difference between the two trends is that though both aim to create this inviting atmosphere, farmhouse style requires a healthy amount of clutter in your space, whereas hygge focused on eliminating it.
To achieve a farmhouse style look, stick to cool and natural colours with your furniture – the Moroso Gentry 2 Seater Sofa Major, for example, will help create a relaxed yet stylish living room. Designer sofas, such as this one, paired with cushions and a throw or two will make for a cosy place to curl up in after a long day. A fireplace will also help form a cosy feel while accessorising the mantelpiece with personal effects and home accessories will help inject your personality into the room.
Bringing nature into your home is not a new trend – in fact it’s been one of the most talked about interior design ideas for the past few seasons. However, this season it can be linked to Pantone’s colour of the year – greenery. Injecting bursts of vibrant greens into your home will brighten your interiors, whether in the form of an indoor plant, vases of beautiful flowers or, as Pinterest included on their 100 for 2017 board, indoor vines that cascade down shelving units! For an elegant look, the Rokos Single Stem Vase will display just one gorgeous flower showing off its delicate features while being an eye catching item in itself.
Attention: navy blue is the new black! For a colour that is just as intense as black yet a little less dramatic, search no further than the elegant and classic navy blue. Like black furniture, navy blue items, such as the Koket Caprichosa Sofa, exude a look that is mature and confident, but doesn’t juxtapose quite so sharply with lighter shades in a room. The colour blue continues to stay in style year after year, with new and interesting ways to feature the colour becoming apparent all the time. Whether you decide to introduce a small navy blue item into a room, such as a cushion or rug, or a larger piece, like a sofa or even a statement wall, this gorgeous colour will instil an elegant vibrancy into your home.
For a simple way to update your home without having to replace all of your gorgeous furniture, introducing wallpaper is ideal. Not only will it add an interesting aesthetic, but it will also introduce depth and texture to your home. With a wide range to choose from in The Longest Stay’s collection, you’re bound to find the piece perfect for you. Natural effect wallpaper, like the NLXL White Marble Wallpaper, is set to be a huge trend this year. This striking design will have a fantastic impact on homes in need of a touch of class, all without the marble price tag!
Acrylic products are set to have a big impact on interiors this year, with acrylic artwork, chairs, tables, lamps and more being brought into our homes! For unique furniture that oozes modernity and style, look no further than acrylic products such as items created by Acrila, who are well known for creating stunning products using this material. The Acrila Puzzle Wood Legs Chair, for example, will bring a quirky and refreshing feel to any room you place it in!
We hope we’ve given you a few ideas on how to update your interiors this season. Take a look on our website for more inspiration for 2017!
