While design trends can be fun and lively, they can also become dated quickly. Rather than filling your home with fads that need to be replaced every few years, decorating with more timeless decor can be easier, cheaper, and more fulfilling.
Keep reading to find some of the best ways to decorate your home for a timeless, beautiful feel that will last for years to come.
White Linens In the Bedrooms
White is a classic color for a reason. Not only does it go with everything, but it’s also easy to dress up or down depending on your aesthetic. With white linens, you get a crisp, clean look that can easily be paired with your choice of accent colors and materials.
Marble Countertops
This elegant choice makes a great addition to any kitchen or bathroom. Marble counters elevate the look of any space and are easy to keep clean.
They are also durable, so you get more out of your investment than just good looks.
Blue & White Porcelain
Blue and white porcelain is a classic design option for a reason - it has literally been around for centuries and is popular all over the world.
While blue and white porcelain has been around in China since the 14th century, the trend became popular in the Netherlands around the 17th century due to trade routes between Europe and China.
Since then, blue and white porcelain has made its mark on the world, touching everything from accessories to tableware to tile work.
Hardwood Flooring
Similar to marble countertops, hardwood floors have several benefits in addition to looking great. Hardwood floors hold their color better than other flooring types like carpets without holding any dust and pollen.
And similarly to white linens, hardwood floors go with just about anything.
Built-In Shelving
Built-in shelving has been a favored design for centuries. Not only does it make your room look elegant, but it also makes the space feel bigger. As an added bonus, you get more storage space.
Clean Lines
While overly curved furniture or accessories may be a popular trend, they can quickly look dated. Though these pieces can add interest to a space, there is something timeless about clean lines.
Natural Materials & Tones
Natural materials have always been a prominent centerpoint for interior design. Materials like wood and stone are naturally beautiful and add visual interest, warmth, and texture to a space.
Many of these organic materials have been used in interior design for centuries and bring a space together in a way that exudes craftsmanship.
Avoid Overly Trendy Decor
Design trends fall in and out of style quickly. While they may seem stylish at the moment, they can quickly look dated once the trend falls out of fashion.
By avoiding overly trendy items, you can create a more cohesive space that centers on your specific style.
Make It Your Own
At the end of the day, interior design is about pieces that make you feel at home. If you gravitate towards a specific style, it will feel more timeless to you - so lean into that!
By making a space your own, you’ll always have a home you want to come home to.
Decorate a Home That’s Your Own
Finding your personal style can be challenging, but if you stay true to yourself, you’ll always have a home you love.
To make it feel cohesive, keep your designs consistent, have simple color palettes, add texture, create interest with unique pieces, and sprinkle in pops of color. But most importantly, design a home you want to live in.
