It is good to keep abreast of these trends in interior design in order to maintain, or sometimes even increase, the value of your house. It is also nice occasionally to have a change when it comes to home decor. Perhaps some of the above decorating trends would work for you.
2. If you are one who
watches the home
improvement and real
estate shows on
television or browses
decorating websites,
you have probably
noticed certain trends
when it comes to interior
design for residential
properties.

3. What are some of the
trends we are seeing
today that you might
consider when decorating
your own home or
preparing it to sell?
Certainly one trend is
toward simplification. Less
clutter is the order of the
day - clean, simple lines in
furniture and picture
placement. Less is best.

4. For some, this trend toward minimalism
presents a problem. Many people have in
the past been strongly influenced by the
Country Living look - lots of antique furniture,
and collections displayed on end tables,
mantels and shelves. Wallpaper too was very
popular.

5. Now though we are seeing
the emergence of simple
displays on table tops and
more blank spaces on
walls. Paint is in; wallpaper
is out. Perhaps you will see
a subtle geometric
wallpaper design on one
accent wall, but that is
about it.

6. Open floor plans are
popular today also. People
like a nice flow from room
to room. They don't like
being cut off from family or
guests by unnecessary
walls. While It is easy
enough to knock out a wall,
it must first be determined if
it is a bearing wall, one that
is supporting the ceiling or
roof.

7. There is also a strong trend toward the mid-
century modern look when it comes to interior
design. Again, the sleek lines are in both
furniture and house design. Some prefer a
more eclectic look that incorporates this mid-
century decor with other pieces that
complement the look.

8. One thing that is definitely out in residential
design is carpeting. People want wood or
bamboo flooring or a laminate that looks
like wood but is more durable. This offers a
clean look and a richness that only comes
from natural wood tones.
