2022 Trend FAQs 

Trends always inspire questions, so we’ve gone to the trouble of answering some of the big ones below. Take a look and see…

1. What are the biggest interior design trends of 2022?

The interior design world has seen the emergence of several key trends in the run-up to 2022. Say hello to a delicate fusion of Japanese design with a Scandinavian touch, Japandi is the trend to watch this year. Using natural materials like bamboo, wood and stone and green colours to bring the outside in and appreciate the beauty in age and imperfection. Meanwhile Pantone’s Colour of 2022 is Very Peri. This new shade of violet-infused blue is striking and dynamic and really does bring joy - we hope to see a lot more of that this year!  Finally, as more of us adjust to a new way of working, creating multiple workspaces for families to balance home schooling and working will become a key focus this year. Think functional, space saving kids beds with a desk built-in, and smart desks with wireless charging and bluetooth speakers. 

2. What about Art Deco trend – is that still making a comeback?

Modern Art Deco brings together a luxurious hotel and the 50's diner look. Update this timeless trend with a touch of modern spirit by adding sleek furniture, matte finishes and a sprinkle of velvet. Invest in timeless yet contemporary pieces from brands like Bold Monkey, that you won't ever have to update.  Last year, Lagom (the Swedish word for ‘just-enough’) was popular, and this year, it looks like the Japandi trend might just knock others off the top spot. Think simplicity and organisation, this delicate fusion of Japanese and Scandanavian design elements brings together the best of both worlds and appreciating the beauty in age and imperfection.

3. What colours do I need to know about for 2022?

Bright Skies has emerged as one of most coveted colours. This airy light blue brings with it a fresh start and a wave of hope and optimism. After a year of dreaming of holidays and being outside Blue Skies is a colour trend we can definitely get on board with! Dulux we thank you for rewarding us with a colour that is truly uplifting, optimistic and bursting with joy! Other colours likely to be making their way into our homes this year include sunny yellows, calming chalky greens and ocean blue hues to capture relaxing poolsides and beach getaways.   

4. How can I easily integrate these interior design trends into my home?

Regardless of the space and budget available, everyone should be able to able to find a way to integrate 2022 trends into their home. Take time to consider which of your rooms might already support a particular trend, meaning less work will be required. For example, if your living room has lots of dark wood furniture, adding a statement midnight blue rug or glass art deco-style light could simply accentuate your existing style. Meanwhile, if your room is very white and Scandinavian, some Blue and Green chairs or houseplants in terracotta pots might work better.
