4 interior design trends that we love in 2022

When it comes to interior design, are you a trend follower or do you tend to stick with timeless elegance? We choose both! Because whoā€™s to say trends canā€™t be timeless or timeless canā€™t be trendy? Weā€™ve chosen 4 interior design trends we think are worth jumping on in 2022.


1.     All green everything


If youā€™ve had a look at the annual colour of the year palettes, thereā€™s no doubt youā€™ve spotted all the shades of green and blue with a hint of warm neutrals. Where 2021 was the year of comfortable soft hues, 2022 brings us a bolder and brighter colour palette with nature as its inspiration.


Start off with a soft sage hue if youā€™re not a fan of the bold and bright. Otherwise, opt for a more saturated emerald green to energise your space. Want to give your chosen colour an additional sense of character? Try adding wall mouldings, they will change the look entirely and make the colour feel more dynamic.



 


2.     Natural shapes


Think rounded and organic shapes, from sculptures to furniture to rounded walls and arches.


Itā€™s no secret that at Orac DecorĀ® weā€™re big supporters of curved walls, itā€™s why we dedicated an entire range to it. With the Flex products, youā€™ll have no problem decorating a rounded wall, bar or arched doorway.





 



3.     Tactile textures


If the lockdown has taught us anything, itā€™s that we want our home to be comfortable and cosy. In 2022 weā€™re going for soft materials and a variety of textures to create our own calming environment.


Satisfy your senses with soft rugs, throws and cushions. Enhance the acoustics in a room with 3D Wall Covering, all the while adding roughness and structure to the wall, making it feel warmer and cosier.




 

4.     Paris je tā€™aime


Want a taste of Paris in your home?

Recreate the look and feel of a typical Parisian apartment with wall panelling. Look for existing architectural elements in the space, such as a mantlepiece or windowsills and start from there for a balanced composition.


Sketch a couple of designs first to see what suits the room best. You might want to highlight some sconces or a piece of art, or you may prefer a repetitive pattern. For the former, start by creating a frame around that element and work your way out from there, making the other frames narrower. As for the latter, youā€™ll want the frames to be the same width. Finish the design with matching cornice mouldings and ceiling roses for the additional wow factor.


One thing to always remember with classic wall panelling: symmetry and proportion are key!
