Insider asked interior designers to share which trends will be all the rage in the new year, and which trends should stay in place in 2023.
Biophilic design is here to stay
Planner 5D interior designer Alice Moszczynski told Insider that biophilic design will be a big thing in 2024.
The main goal of biophilic design is to increase our connection with natural elements by using nature both directly and indirectly.
“The essence of biophilic design is the feeling of being out in nature, surrounded by lush greenery and natural light. It's all about bringing the outdoors in,” Moszczynski said.
She said this design style would include more natural materials, sunlight and plants.
Warm tones take center stage

In the new year, earthy browns, rich terracottas, and deep oranges will take center stage.
“These shades bring comfort and homeliness to the space, creating a cozy atmosphere,” Moszczynski said.
Forest green has its moment
Interior designer Kelly Marole of Neutral Home Design predicts that by 2023, we'll see more forest greenery in different parts of our homes.

Jennifer Verruto, CEO and founder of Blythe Interiors, told Insider that round shapes will be appearing in homes everywhere in 2024 because of their appealing nature.
“Introducing the mirror-like rounded shape of an arched vanity brings softness and beautiful juxtaposition to an often straight vanity,” said Werth.
She also said that the arch “exudes a sophisticated, ancient feel” but is versatile enough to combine with a variety of design styles.
Scalloped design brings great benefits
This year, homeowners will welcome scalloped designs into their homes, according to interior designer Julia Longchamp of Julia Longchamp Design.
“Scalloped details in furniture and upholstery are being introduced into the design world,” Longchamp told Insider. She said scalloped edges can also be a nice accent on furniture.

Subway tile has been popular for years, but a new take on it will be making waves in 2024 and beyond.
“There's nothing more classic than subway tile, but we give it a modern spin by stacking tiles vertically or horizontally instead of traditional brick pavers,” Verruto told Insider.
She said she predicts this trend will remain timeless for years to come.
Fractals will have a big moment in 2024
Interior designer Debbie Daly told Insider there will be more fractal designs coming next year. Fractal designs are usually made up of geometric shapes that add dimension.
“If you think about scientific theory in design and how shapes and geometric designs appeal to the brain, we're going to see a lot of fractals in our homes,” Daly said.
Daly said you can expect fractal designs on tables, cabinetry, accent pieces, lighting and more.
On the other hand, industrial style is on the decline.

Ultraminimalism falls out of favor
Brad Smith, interior designer and CEO of Omni Home Ideas, told Insider that ultra-minimalism, characterized by neutral colors and few details or furniture, will start to fade. .

Fast furniture is becoming unpopular for many
Cheap furniture mass-produced in flat packs has long been popular for its convenience and budget-friendly nature, but Smith told Insider that the fast furniture trend is fading.
“There is a growing awareness of sustainability and the environmental impact of single-use items. People are increasingly investing in high-quality items that last longer and have a lower environmental impact,” Smith said.

Daley told Insider that the once-popular gray trend is quickly dying out and will continue to do so in 2024.
“Due to its popularity, many homeowners have jumped on the gray bandwagon,” Daly said. “With so many similar interiors becoming overdone, gray has been sidelined in favor of bold, moody colors in the home.”
The beige monochrome design is starting to look outdated.
The beige look was all the rage a few years ago, but in 2024, the basic hue will be replaced by bolder hues.
“Vivid colors, rich textures and exhilarating patterns take center stage, like bold wallpaper,” Welt said.
