There isn’t a shortage of design inspiration for home décor in 2022. As most interior designers will agree, the rules this season are there are no rules. Debbie Pratt and Megan Fornes of ML Interiors help clients find their own styles. The most common question they hear is, “How can we use what we have?” Well, flipping formal dining rooms to comfortable wine lounges or reading nooks is one way Pratt and Fornes are assisting clients reinvent rooms by their own rules.
The color palette of choice this season creates warm and inviting areas using a variety of neutral shades. Juliana Oliveira, owner of Beyond Interior Design, is seeing modern organic styles dominate. “Modern elements in a room add volume and interest,” she says. Oliveira, Pratt, and Fornes all agree that instant gratification furniture is out. People are tired of disposable pieces and are willing to wait and make the investment in quality furnishings that are durable, eco-friendly, and multi-generational.
And for customers wanting more sustainable and organic elements incorporated into their living spaces, creative aesthetics are trending. From art that tells a story to textiles that evoke the great outdoors, functionality and comfort is always close to mind.
