Top Interior Design Trends in 2023 – Which Will You Choose?
As with fashion, interior design trends are popular for a period of time and then they can fade out. They tend to be influenced by the latest technology, cultural changes, and economic factors like a recession. With that in mind, here are some of the most popular interior design trends that are likely to stand the test of time and give you plenty of different looks to help you curate your personal style.
Hygge
Hygge is the Danish practice of creating intimacy in interior spaces with textures, shapes, and positive flow. Hygge spaces banish clutter in favour of white space and utilise functional but soft furniture and décor. You can embrace the Hygge way of life with nature, spaciousness, cosiness, warming textures and lighting, and an open layout. Your interior design efforts should create a feeling of well-being and contentment in your home.
Art Moderne
Art Moderne is a period interior style born from Art Deco. While Art Deco used liberal embellishments, Art Moderne tones it down with simpler décor, low horizontal lines, and solid textures and colours. You can get the look with Art Deco features backed by curved and low furniture, pastels and dusky colours, and asymmetrical details.
Maximalism

Cottage-glam
While the country cottage style has died down over the last few years, cottage glam has thrived and is set to be a big theme in 2023. Cottage-glam combines elements from the country cottage and glitz and glam styles, bringing a sense of luxury and prestige to country spaces. Think white furniture and homely textures alongside metallic lampshades and diamante cushions.
Naturalism
Naturalism replaces synthetic and flat surfaces and textures with natural materials, such as concrete-effect wallpaper, plants instead of ornaments, and natural wood instead of painted. This creates clean, fresh, and outdoorsy spaces that are beloved of the Scandi style. Incorporating natural and nature-inspired materials into the home and making better use of natural light is a fantastic way to make your space more comfortable.

Urban Modern
The urban-modern interior style fuses opposing styles together, just like modern cities fuse glass skyscrapers with Gothic architecture. You can think of urban modern as a fusion of minimalist, industrial, bohemian, and glam interior styles emphasising modern elements. Urban interiors are trendy and new, with many metallics, clean shapes, and textures.

Knits and Organic Materials
More people are ditching synthetic fabrics in favour of natural materials like cotton, bamboo fibre, straw, sisal, and jute because they are better for the environment and offer a natural look missing in synthetic materials. In 2023, interior design experts expect more people to choose natural curtains, bedding, mattresses, rugs, cushions and throws when furnishing their spaces.
