You know what all the magazines say: your home should be a reflection of your totally amazing personality, right?
But you’re not alone if you find yourself looking around the living room, hoping your hodge-podge of hand-me-down furniture isn’t a mirror of your best traits.
Perhaps it’s time to turn your home into a space that shows off who you really are. Get started by checking out our list of the hottest furniture trends of 2020.
1. Vintage and Antique
If your home is feeling a little sterile or one-note, a vintage or antique furniture piece is the perfect antidote. Designers are using this little tip in full-force for 2020, searching the world over for unique dressers, credenzas, dining chairs, and more to add something special to any room.
2. Farmhouse Style
Farmhouse style exploded onto the scene a few years ago, and it’s not slowing down anytime soon. It’s easy to see why designers and homeowners alike are loving this trend. Farmhouse furniture is practical (think: kitchen benches and overstuffed accent chairs), charming, and cozy. Incorporate this style by looking for furniture that is white-washed or made from reclaimed barn wood.
3. Colonial
Looking for the next big furniture style to hit the design world? Colonial is it. This furniture style is rooted in old-world Europe, yet feels totally fresh and all-American when paired with an eclectic mix of pieces. Colonial furniture is loved for its long-lasting construction and attention to detail. Examples include spindles, carved knobs, graceful arches, and more.
4. Rattan and Wicker
When you want to add texture and interest to your space, rattan and wicker furniture is a sure-fire way to do it. One part bohemian and one part “grandma-style,” this throwback material is taking on new life in 2020. The modern version of this style goes way beyond being one of the most popular home trends in patio furniture: find it used for indoor chairs, credenzas, and mirrors.
5. Spanish
Can’t afford a trip to Madrid or Barcelona? Bring the exotic touch of Spain to your home with Spanish-style furniture and decor. Spanish style is different from what many people think of when they imagine European furniture. While Spain is known for rod iron, brightly colored tiles, stucco, and clay, the furniture is characterized by silk-cushioned seats, detailed leather, and rustic wood.
6. Art Deco
Love the decor of The Great Gatsby and the Roaring 20s? Get that vibe with art deco furniture, which encapsulates all the glam and guild of the era in interesting, geometric pieces. Consider investing in an art deco headboard, velvet loveseat, or exotic wood chair. Art deco is all about boldness and luxury, so choose a few fun pieces and let them take center stage in your home. This is also a good chance to incorporate the latest furniture color trends, like warm pastels and bold jewel tones.
