Inspiration for interior design can come from many places. If you're trying to find some new ideas, one easy way is by learning about the latest trends in interior design. There are plenty of up-and-coming trends to inspire you if it's time for an upgrade to your bedroom décor. Here are some of the major bedroom design trends to know:
Sustainability is an ever-rising concern and a popular trend in interior design. When decorating your bedroom, consider sustainable bedding as a starting point. Organic fabrics, recycled materials or sustainable fibers like bamboo are likely to increase in popularity and variety. You can already find organic cotton and bamboo bedding at major retailers with myriad options to choose from.
Soft neutrals will always be bedroom design favorites, but the trend has begun to lean into the warmer and bolder tones. Orange, caramel, burgundy and mustard have come to the fore both in major elements like bedding and smaller details like lamps and decorative pillows. Accent walls are an excellent way to try out this trend without committing to an entire room makeover. You can also start small by adding these bold, nature-inspired colors to wall décor and other accessories.
As it becomes more common to invite guests into our home, the guest bedroom is returning to prominence in many households. If you have converted a guest room for another purpose, trends suggest revamping the space to create a welcoming place for guests to sleep. Some easy and trending ways to refresh a guest bedroom include new paint, more colorful bedding and simple yet comfortable accent furniture. Try a bold pattern on throws or pillows to add color and depth to the room to make it a highlight rather than an afterthought.
I'm John Mahan, Sales Associate with William Raveis Real Estate, Harwich Port Office.
Throughout his childhood, John Mahan spent summers on Cape Cod at his parents’ home in Dennis Port. His intro to the Cape was, as he puts it, when his parents “carried me down the stairs at Sea Street Beach when I was a week old.” With a lifelong connection to Cape Cod, it seemed only natural for John and his wife, Mary, to move to Harwich – where they still reside – with their two young children in 1996.
Prior to moving to Cape Cod, John lived in the Worcester-Auburn area where he worked for Mass Electric for 10 years and was a member of the International Brotherhood of Utility Workers. When John and his family moved to the Cape, he worked at NSTAR for six years.
John began his career in real estate in 2002 when he joined Team Waystack Realty in Harwich Port. He has been a consistent top producing realtor in the Harwich area for the past 20 years. John’s approachable demeanor, combined with an integral understanding of the Cape Cod residential real estate market, have allowed him to build trusting, long-term relationships with his clients – both sellers and buyers.
