These are the luxe design trends experts say will elevate your home interior

Luxe design style to up your interior design game

Interior design trends are always changing and sometimes they can be hard to keep up with. Luxe design trends are sophisticated and elegant without looking like you’ve tried too hard. This usually pricey style appears across all design styles, though, so it’s not that unattainable if you want to try to up your interior design game. Experts agree that design trends are moving toward more unique aesthetics, so choosing a luxe design style may now be more doable than ever. Check out the trends experts think will elevate your home decor this year.

Unique and custom pieces

Design trends have moved away from modern and sterile and have become more homey and unique. This is excellent news for anyone looking to add some luxe items to their home decor. Since luxury pieces aren’t usually cheap, the purchase can be more justifiable if you invest in something timeless that will be in your family for years to come. Even if you choose to go with a custom piece or two, like the hand-crafted ironwork that has been popping up everywhere, you won’t regret the purchase years from now, if it’s a design you truly love and not just a passing fad.

Micro-luxury

Jessica Sommer, VP of Wedgewood Homes & Maverick Design, explains that this rising trend “introduces the idea of going all out in a smaller space, or going ‘all in’ on just one luxury element used in combination with more budget-friendly items.” For example, use high-quality materials for the bathroom floors and counters mixed with more cost-effective items to give an overall luxury look but not break the bank. This is also a good place to sneak in some decadent patterns like damasks and large florals that are making a huge comeback.
