4 . JAPANDI
Japandi is a trend we ’ ve seen gain popularity every year . A style rooted in minimalism , Japandi uses natural materials and soothing neutral tones to create a zen-like retreat from daily stresses . Begin with a calming colour scheme of whites , greys and browns , with black accents for contrast . Use a mix of light and dark wood to bring warmth and organic texture to your home – for example , pair a natural oak dining table with dark wooden chairs for a rich , contrasting effect . You can also introduce fluted panels or wood slats on a feature wall ( or a piece of furniture ) to add texture and detail .
Japandi furniture is all about clean lines and simplicity in design . Look for modern styles in low profiles – like a low bed and side tables – to create that sense of openness found in Japanese design . Combine this with cosy Hygge touches like soft organic cotton or linen textiles

5 . THE RETURN OF BROWN
In 2023 , we predict the return of brown to give our homes a sense of calm and comfort after a couple of tumultuous years . Tied to other soothing interior design trends like biophilic design and Japandi , brown can be used as a modern neutral to ground the room and let other colours stand out . On your walls , try light brown paint that ’ s similar to taupe for a cosiness that would work well in the bedroom or living room . Or use a warm brown with a tinge of golden orange so the overall effect isn ’ t too dark – style it with contemporary , light coloured furniture for a fresh and chic look .
