The start of a New Year provides the perfect opportunity to overhaul your apartment. Here, we share a few of the top home trends that are expected to make an impact in 2018 if you’re ready for a change!

Colorful Kitchens 

Gleaming white kitchens will never go out of style, but for those who prefer nontraditional decorating, the colorful kitchen trend should be welcome news. Pops of color are unexpected in the kitchen, and adding a few eye-catching accent pieces is a great way to spice up a room’s look. Vases in your favorite color are a nice touch, especially when they’re filled with fresh flowers.

Monochrome Rooms 

If you hate the look of a “busy” room, you can soften the space by decorating in a simple monochrome color scheme. When taking this approach, opt for knickknacks, bedding, and accessories that are complementary or similar colors. Black + white is an iconic monochrome combination, but the options are endless. Colors found in nature, like light blue or sage green, are calming and can help your room feel like a safe haven.

Curved Couches 

Hoping to cozy up your living room or office space? Curved couches are a growing trend, and they lend a laidback element to the room. For those who love ‘70s-inspired fashion that still looks chic, a curved couch could be a timeless addition to your apartment home. Bonus tip: this style of couch works exceptionally well in rectangle-shaped rooms.

Sleek Marble 

Marble has long been a staple in kitchens, but many modern households enjoy using marble for a variety of purposes. You’ve probably seen the marbled phone case trend, but this gorgeous natural stone is making an appearance in other surprising places. For example, marble-topped dining room and coffee tables are on the rise. If you have subtle yet classic style, marble could be a beautiful choice for items like tabletops and coasters.

Matte Black Finish

If you’re not a fan of glossy or chrome home décor, accent pieces with a matte black finish could be the ideal option. Products with a matte finish are everywhere, from cosmetics to kitchen appliances. To incorporate edgy elegance into your home, consider starting with a simple decorative piece like a vase or lamp.

Mixed Metals 

Matching isn’t a necessity, especially when it comes to metal. Instead of sticking to one material for fixtures and décor, try mixing things up with multiple metallics. For example, rose gold and iron are a striking combination that might work well in your home. As 2017 drew to an end, Pinterest searches for mixed metals were up 423 percent, so there should be plenty of ideas from which to draw inspiration.
