Designing 2024: More Of This, Less Of That

This blog explores the interior design elements and trends we’re itching to see more of and those we’re ready to bid adieu. From embracing quirky accents that spark joy to waving goodbye to anything that feels too ‘been there, done that,’ I polled our design team for their opinion, so here’s how we are diving into 2024!

1. The One-Color Accent Wall:

The rockstar of the room. The one wall that stands out and painted differently to keep things interesting. Just like the accent wall’s edge, we are evenly divided.
