Where do the ‘trends’ for interior design come from?  In a word-FASHION

This year’s direction has an overall theme of modern elegance and casual luxury.  Shine, plush textures neutral color palettes with pops of bright color are in the fore front.

Gray is the basic neutral of the year.  Try gray velvet for a sofa or chair.  Take it to the next level by diamond tufting the back.   This bed by Bernhardt is a perfect visual example of the style that is becoming ‘in trend’.Take it up a notch by adding some extra bling in the form of  diamond/pave buttons in each of the tufts.

Yellow, navy, teal and cobalt are the pops of color to use on top of your neutrals.  Pillows and throws of these ‘happy’ colors on the top of your neutral linen sofa will bring life to any room.
