2023 HOME DESIGN TRENDS
With the new year comes a clean slate of forecasted home design elements.
EARTH TONES
Already dominating the interior design world for the past three years, designers predict that earth tones, especially shades of brown, will continue to rule in the upcoming year. Featuring tones like mauve, rust, blue-green, midnight blue, taupe, and creamy white, the earth tone palette is known for its calming effect and association with nature, an inclination that is spilling over from the pandemic years and continues to hold importance today. These relaxing shades speak to our core, inviting us to rest and reset.
NEOCLASSICISM
Rooted in history and withstanding the test of time, this style of design explores timeless architecture and thoughtful minimalism to create for an elegant look. Its focus relies heavily on symmetry, high ceilings, timeless furniture, and, above all, sophistication.

TIERED MONOCHROME
This design tactic has gained popularity in recent times as it envelopes a space with a serene, comfortable effect. It is accomplished by layering different textures and fabrics in similar tones to a space. Consistent with the rising trend of curating a home that eludes coziness and tranquility, tiered monochrome will surely be favored in 2023.
FOCUS ON WELLNESS
As we recover from the aftermath of the pandemic, we are seeing more and more homes prioritize the health and wellness of its residents. Whether it be through wellness design, that is tranquil, minimal, and warm-colored design, or the inclusion of amenities such as home gyms, an environment that facilitates healthy living can greatly impact one’s well-being. Overall its goal is to help set the tone for slowing down and practicing mindfulness in the home.
Particularly enlivening this ideal is 888 Lilac Drive, an estate that prioritizes its residents’ well-being and health immensely. With a home gym, steam shower, and even a sauna, this home makes it easy to focus on oneself.
Not only does the estate offer luxe amenities, but there are various aspects that go quietly unnoticed that contribute greatly to the quality of life at 888 Lilac Drive. Organic, toxin-free materials, low EMF ratings, and a home water and air filtration system foster an elevated level of wellness and a comfortable environment for those with allergen sensitivities. A gray water system and private well make sure you are always water-wise and keep the landscape looking lush. A whole-house generator offers peace of mind and is perfect for the occasional power outage. There is even a unique mineral system that reduces harsh chemicals and makes the pool water virtually drinkable.
MAXIMIZED NATURAL LIGHTING
Designers have recently reported a renewed sense of value in maximizing natural lighting with big, bare windows and reflective surfaces. Believed to improve sleep patterns, focus, and mood and promote vitamin D production, natural light will be featured more prominently in the coming year.
STATEMENT GLASS
For the year ahead, experts are excited about utilizing glass in innovative and unique ways. Whether it be a statement chandelier or a clever use of wall space, this design trend helps a home feel elevated and fresh.
SILVER AND IRON ACCENTS
Bronze, gold, and copper have long been the design industry’s metal of choice, however, in 2023 a new hue has galvanized our gaze: slick and polished silver. Its captivating shine and texture lend an everyday sophistication to any space and will be seen more prominently in decor pieces.
MASTER CRAFTSMANSHIP
Cookie-cutter design is falling away and yielding itself to a new design era that emphasizes quality, sustainability, and individuality. Rather than opting for the same furniture and designs we have seen time and time again, in 2023 experts predict a new embrace of craft in home design. Ornate decor, the reverence of wood, and specialized touches like hand-hewn details all add a wonderful warmth to where we spend our time and allow for the personalization of one’s home. In this way, one can voice their values through their purchases and design choices.
