Interior Design Trend #1: Bold Bed Linens

While 2015 catered to demure bedroom palettes in beige, taupe and white, this year we’re seeing bold bed linens make a statement.

The best way to make this trend work in your favor is to invest in a neutral-based bed like the Erika bed in beige.

Its solid base acts as the perfect starting point to begin building your bold bed without going overboard and confusing the eye.

We love the look of red and beige together, so we suggest investing in red bedding that pops!

But don’t stop there; take advantage of the Erika bed’s high headboard by accessorizing with fun accent pillows that make a statement.

 !nspire tip: Not a fan of going bold in the bedroom? Stay neutral with your bedding and go bright with your sheets for a playful pop of color when you nuzzle under the covers!

Interior Design Trend #2: Pedestal Tables

The interior design world has come a long way in terms of accent tables: From metallic to chrome, wood, glass and everything in between, it’s safe to say there’s an accent table for every style out there.

This year, we’re excited to see pedestal tables in cascading heights take center stage.

Ideal for your sparest corners and awkward spaces, these tall, handsome pedestal tables are perfect for displaying your favorite sculpture, houseplant or accent lamp.

Our top pick? The Trenton 2-piece accent tables in distressed pine.

Sold as a set of two, these distressed tables look beautiful in the hallway, living room or den, adding a touch of rustic modern design to your space!

Interior Design Trend #3: The Return Of The Desk

Working on your laptop in bed is SO 2015!

At the same time, confining yourself to your home office can make you feel cut-off from the rest of the household.

This year we’re embracing the return of the desk by creating nook-like ‘office’ spaces in the comfort of your main living spaces, be it the living room, kitchen or den.

Technology is such a big part of our lives in 2016 and designers are taking note.

We’ve seen plenty of gorgeous high-loss, streamlined desks infused into all areas of the house, making it much easier to work on a whim, or cook along to your favorite online recipe!

Interior Design Trend #4: Mixed Metals

The mixed metal trend has been lingering for years but 2016 sees industrial chic designs taking over entire households.

To try this trend in your own space, start in the living room by switching up your end tables.

Gone are the days where accent tables have to match, so we recommend pairing the Ester accent table and Geoffrey accent table for a unique look that screams style.

The antique silver features of the Ester accent table complement the aluminum finish of the Geoffrey accent table, making this an ideal combination for trendsetters across the country.

!nspire tip: If you’re not ready to switch up your end tables, start small by mixing your metal home décor accessories like bowls, vases and vignettes.

Interior Design Trend #5: Traditional Tableware

Remember sitting in your grandmother’s kitchen as a kid, admiring her tediously placed collection of gravy boats and footed bowls?

These traditional tableware accessories are back and overtaking kitchens with sophisticated style!

We love this trend because:

A) The kitchen is a place of limited accessories. It’s refreshing to work with a trend that allows you to have some fun, and B) The addition of traditional tableware may just !nspire you to gather round the table more often for a much-needed family dinner.
