Trends such as industrial kitchens, open shelving, and fast furniture are predicted to fade, replaced by more functional, sustainable, and high-quality design choices.
Vintage-inspired aesthetics, including mid-century modern, Art Deco, and Rococo Revival, are anticipated to dominate, bringing nostalgia and opulence into interior spaces.
Chrome is emerging as a preferred metal finish for its sleek, versatile appeal, overtaking brass, which is expected to see reduced use outside of natural finishes.
