55 Trendiest Home Décor Ideas

Some trends stick around for decades, like the fashionable gray rooms that are now being replaced with browns and greens, according to Insider. Additionally, many trends are repeats of history, like bringing in antique furniture pieces and putting up wallpaper. Trends are often a sign of the times as well; people are spending more time inside their homes, which means building spaces within for all of the things they need — a space for relaxation, somewhere to get work done, and a nice relaxing spot to hang out outside.

Sustainability is another key ingredient in the home décor trends that are emerging. Buying vintage is giving something old new life again. Shopping at local thrift and vintage stores also puts money in local pockets and does more for small businesses. Furthermore, not only do vintage accents add discussion-worthy pieces to your home, but you get a sense of history when you sit and enjoy them for a bit. Those are just a few of the trendiest home décor ideas we'll discuss in this article.

Macramé has been making a steady comeback for a couple of years, both as a creative hobby and as a form of household décor. The Spruce Crafts has some instructions on how to get started if you want to make some of your own knotted décor.

Whether you use it in the bedroom for extra throw blankets or in the living room, blanket ladders offer a stylish way to keep extra warmth nearby without cluttering up couches or requiring you to dig through a closet or drawer when you're chilly.

Art doesn't have to be complex. If you have a green thumb and want to embrace the beauty of houseplants even in rooms without ample light for real plant life, create or invest in some "green" art. From ferns to leafy plants, this art will make your home feel alive.

If you're working on maximizing hygge in your home, you're going to want some big comfy blankets to keep warm with. They're perfect in the bedroom and any space in the house in which you want to relax.

Whether you're a pro or only started to develop your green thumb, live plants always make wonderful home décor. If you want plants that don't need a lot of attention, look into succulents and cactus plants — they need less watering than most plants and are often more forgiving when neglected for a bit.

Another way to bring more nature into your home is with dried plants. These need no water or special care and add simple elegance to any room of the house.

While you're focusing on trendy nature themes for your home décor, consider using terracotta pots. These red clay pots are beautiful, enhance the green of your plants, and add great earthy tones to any room.

What is old usually comes back around again. If you have vintage typewriters, clocks, radios, or cameras just lying around, use them to make your home look cool. Records make great wall décor (so don't toss the scratched or warped ones when they start skipping on the turntable).

Enjoy the creativity of geometric designs in your space. From end tables to lampshades, there are all sorts of décor items being made in these intricate, yet sturdy, shapes.

Rather than going with basic, boring shelving, consider trying out floating shelves. One of the benefits of these trendy shelves is that they take up less space on your walls than traditional hanging shelves. Plus, they just look cool.

Basic ceiling lights don't offer enough light for keeping a room bright. If you're an artist or other creative type who craves lots of good lighting, invest in trendy track lights.

Brown is one of the "in" colors right now, according to Vogue. No matter which tones you choose to incorporate within the rooms of your home, they'll bring warmth and comfort.

Wicker furniture isn't just for patios and porches. It offers a great way to bring more sustainable furniture into the home and adds to a natural aesthetic. Wicker baskets and totes are great for storage and controlling clutter.

Pallet crafting isn't a new thing, but it is definitely a trendy thing. You can make your own pallet bookcases with instructions from online bloggers like Jen Woodhouse, or look for them at rustic shops and craft events.

Another way to bring nature inside is to look for natural fabrics, including leather. Leather furniture is trending and you can go for new or vintage. The "used" look of vintage leather adds character to your décor.

There's something about throw pillows that brings a room together and adds creativity. While their only real purpose is aesthetic beauty, picking the right patterns and colors for your couch or bed can make any room look like it's clipped right out of a trendy magazine.

Bring life to the walls in your home with living art. This gorgeous piece of greenery is made of succulents. In the bathroom, it won't get a lot of natural light, but it will get a nice drink of water from the shower steam. Make your own with these instructions from Better Homes & Gardens.

What does your entryway look like? Are you getting the most of that space? Invest in some great spaces to store hats, coats, umbrellas, and other stuff you tend to discard the moment you walk in the door — without excess clutter!

While natural colors, like brown tones, may be the "in" colors, if bright tones are more your vibe, consider something striking. Pairing deep turquoise with pale pink in multiple areas of the room, for example, makes for a lively and cozy atmosphere.

If you were alive in the '70s or '80s, you know all about floral wallpaper patterns. They're "in" again. Add some vintage pizazz to any room in your home with a garish wallpaper print. Not into floral? Try paisley. 

Even fake fireplaces can add comfort to a room. Whether you put in a mantle like the one pictured or integrate an unusable fireplace into a space for candles and fairy lights, you can have the delights of this beautiful décor without the smoke and need for a chimney sweep.

When it comes to trendy things, stuff that floats will be cool for a while. You've seen floating shelves, now it's time for floating stairs. These may not be a great option if anyone in your home is afraid of heights.

Chaise lounges, sometimes referred to as fainting couches, are a great addition to any room. Put one in the living room for extra seating, or in the bedroom as a place to lounge when you don't feel like getting in bed quite yet. Velvet lounges are exquisite and might make you feel like royalty.

Your curtains don't have to be one color. Get creative with the use of valences and sashes. The blue paired with off-white in this living space adds a bright pop of color to the room.

With more people working from home, it makes sense to find a space to set up a little home office area. Pick a chair that you find comfortable, even if it isn't a computer chair. Use a modern desk or something kitsch like the one in the background of this picture.

If wellness is important to you, one trend you may want to participate in is creating a meditation space where you can enjoy the lack of clutter and the silence you need in order to drift inward. If enough space is available, you can do yoga there too.

Trendy living rooms are giving up on the traditional coffee tables and investing in elegant chunks of wood that bring a rustic feel into even the most modern home. You can stick with one table, pair up tables for coffee table style looks, or even use them as end tables.

No matter how big or small your couch is, get trendy with a curvy sofa if it's time for a replacement. These somewhat circular couches give you a better TV viewing angle and allow for better chats when you're hanging out with the family or have guests over.

Basic bathroom sinks are boring. Consider creating a modern atmosphere with a trendy bowl-style sink. It's like the past meets the future.

Fabulous cupboards are in your future. Whether you want bright colors or you'd prefer fancy hardware, your bathroom and kitchen could use some trendy modern style.

If you're spending more time enjoying your libations at home and less time going out for drinks, a home bar is a great addition to your place. You can set one up in any space that has room in your home, including a finished basement.

Antiques will always have a place in homes, but they're becoming more and more trendy. Head out to your local vintage shop and find the perfect accent piece for your living room, den, or dining area. 

Bold patterns, like these striped walls, are in right now. Bedrooms aren't the only place to go for patterns that stand out; use them in the living room, kitchen, or anywhere else that strikes your fancy.

While there is a lean toward natural tones, like greens and browns, bold colors in bright shades are also trendy and stylish. Bring a rainbow of color into a room you enjoy spending time in to help bring a constant smile to your face.

If you've found yourself bored with basic curtains, you may be happy to know that vintage-style patterned curtains are making a comeback. Go simple yet vivid with bright florals on white, or look for something even more vintage and shocking.

Bring the outdoors in with creative terrariums. Nature décor is trendy in any way, from live plants in basic pots to dried plants. For terrariums, you get the creativity of a flower arrangement, of sorts, mixed with live plants that won't die in a couple of weeks (unless you improperly care for them, of course).

While you're turning your home into a relaxing sanctuary that you're happy to spend more time in, add some beautiful stone and pottery pieces. A raw rock looks just as beautiful as a handmade pottery piece.

Three-dimensional art adds more depth to a room and looks unique while doing it. There are all sorts of cool art pieces out there in 3D form, including kitsch wood animal head mounts like the one in this picture.

Traditional bookshelves are boring, so consider replacing yours with some wooden crates. You can buy them new or find them at thrift and antique shops. Mix and match colors, repaint them yourself, or go for uniform matching sets. These are great for all sorts of décor, not just books.

While TV stands are no longer a must-have with flat-screen televisions being easily mountable, you may still want some storage space for your Blu-ray collection or other random items. Look for oblong shelving with unique designs, like the trendy piece in this image.

Canopy beds are beautiful. While they may have turned into a "princess" bedroom motif over the years, they're now making a comeback in adult bedrooms. You can opt to stick with the basic four-poster bed look or hang some sheer curtains to add whimsy and romance.

Dark kitchens seem to be something many people avoid, but they're becoming popular now. Stick with the brown tones that are trendy, add a little mood lighting, and ditch the bright whites and yellows. Some off-white accent areas on the wall will still give you a little pop of brightness when you need it.

Pair cool household items with your usual wall artwork. Wicker and other natural elements are "in," so hang stuff you're not getting everyday use of on the walls — like old paper plate holders and fun bags that are too small for your shopping trips.

Breakfast nooks offer a stylish space for enjoying breakfast or brunch. Nooks are all the rage right now, so this is a great way to integrate one into the kitchen area. It's a small area and can double as a dining space if your home is smaller.

Coffee table books are back in style, whether you're displaying your current bestseller reads, self-help guides, or some photography books. Pair your book piles with other delights, like candles and pretty dishes.

Floral curtains and wallpaper have already been covered in this list, but you can expand the floral focus more — from floral pillows to wall art and even fresh cut flowers in fancy vases. 

Go big if you want your home to be trendy. Big mirrors, large blanket knits, and oversized clocks are just a few good additions. The larger-than-life décor stands out and adds to the maximalist trend that is becoming popular again.

Black accents are coming to many rooms near you. They give a dark yet classic feel to any room. This black and white bathroom is stylish and bold.

Circular designs are another trendy accent to look into. From rugs and mirrors to tables and clocks, bring some round stuff into your home. Shapes catch the eye, and mixing and matching shapes adds more creativity to any space.

Brown isn't the only color trending — green is growing in popularity as well. Natural shades and earthy tones are exactly what you want to look for if you're giving your home a makeover.

If you're not keen on leather couches, for whatever reason, velvety sofas in rich earth tones, like this green one, are also a trendy option. Soft, comfortable, and beautiful, the right couch will be the focal point of your living room or den.

Another wonderful trend to follow is bringing indoor spaces outside. Make use of your backyard, deck, or patio by investing in your own relaxation. Outdoor furniture doesn't have to look boring and plastic.
