Colours And Patterns Trending In 2023 - Part I
New Year's Eve marked a new beginning for many people and it's usually a time of evaluation, pondering on what to keep and what to make changes to. And perhaps amongst some of the changes you have planned for the upcoming year is also a new look for your home. As winter will be slowly turning into spring, it's the perfect time for decorating ideas and plans to have a new start with a crisp fresh feel.
Not all changes have to be challenging. Let's make this one fun! We are here to help you with inspiration and a sneak peak of 2023 trends.
From bright and bold to earthy tones
Big bold and loud patterns were dominating until now, helping us to brighten up our homes as we have been spending significantly more time within its walls the past few years. Colourful tropical jungles with rather realistic animals standing out were one of the most popular patterns and the photos you have shared with us are the proof. You have done stunning work, thank you for sharing! It's been fun and a real treat for vision for quite some time. Perhaps that's why lots of the newest designs that are fashioned with more subtlety and bright colours are now fading into more earthy tones of sage greens and terracotta oranges, offering the eyes a little rest.

Grey all the way
Grey continues to be a favourite. It's calming on the eye and very versatile which makes it a winner. Elegant and smart on it's own, whilst looking amazing when paired with other designs.

Timeless wood paneling
Wooden panelling is timeless and keeps coming back with various contemporary twists. They make for a really lovely cozy feel. Wood slats are now super popular in many different natural shades, so you can easily get the one which is the perfect colour match for your room.
