Spring offers a perfect opportunity to refresh our home interiors and according to current design trends, taking your cues from nature will get you there. According to Houzz, the dominant trends lend themselves to a more casual, less polished approach with softer, lighter paint colors, raw wood tones and a mix of styles that showcase your personality in a relaxed way. Casual sophistication is what I call it, an approach that embraces not only your season of life but your lifestyle personified.

Softer color palettes come to life with visual texture and layered design as seen in this casual yet sophisticated living room finished with chalky plastered walls.

This English Manor-styled home has nature in mind with a garden print inspired entry, soft color tones and perfectly scaled design elements.

Beautiful tone-on-tone blue accents in numerous textures and patterns exude calmness and an invitation to linger.

Neutral tones are great for creating a light, open space that, in this case, connects with the exterior.

Casual, yet elegant dining is more in line with today’s lifestyle and these homeowners opted to replace a formal dining room for a more simplistic elegance fit for any dining occasion.

Color trends today are “reflective of a longing for serenity in the hectic world we live in these days”, according to Benjamin Moore in its introduction of October Mist, Color of the Year 2022, and I couldn’t agree more.

Spring is here!
