What are the 7 home trends of 2017 that we don’t want to see again? With the arrival of the new year, furnishing trends change and renew themselves but in the same way others decline and lose charm. It is a constantly changing sector, in search of solutions in line with new lifestyles and therefore of living. Here then are, in our opinion, the outdated home trends, which will tend to disappear during 2018.
Track lighting
Track lighting and visible lamps are now numbered. They were one of the lighting trends during 2017 but are giving way to recessed lighting, which is not seen and does not disturb, leaving the environment clean and decidedly neater.
Bamboo floors
Bamboo floors are one of the 2017 home trends that will decline in 2018. The reason is mainly linked to the environmental aspect, as there are doubts about the negative effects it has on biodiversity and carbon emissions. In short, it is better to choose a parquet of native woods, in line with the environment in which we find ourselves.
Kitchen with open shelves
On the covers of newspapers and magazines, the kitchens with open shelves are very tidy and super organized, which unfortunately is incompatible with real life. This is why shelves and shelves will be a declining trend as far as the cooking area is concerned.
DIY decor
Do-it-yourself and creative recycling offer many ideas to make your home original and unique. However, recovering everything, such as toilet paper rolls or egg cartons to decorate the house, can create a messy and a bit tangled effect.
Pink gold
2018 will be the year in which rose gold will come to its definitive decline, giving way to a mixed palette of metals and colors more in line with nature.
Bohemian style
The bohemian style, which gathers a bit of vintage, ethnic and exotic, is definitely on the decline. In fact, 2018 will prefer more relaxing interiors, with neutral colors and natural materials. A little bit of character is needed but without exaggerating!
Nordic vintage style
The Nordic style in a vintage key is also experiencing its decline. On the other hand, ample space will be given, in 2018, to a Nordic style with a more informal appearance, for welcoming and warm environments but not too built.
