A house is not a home until you make it your own. Whilst bare bricks can accommodate all those you love, a home is filled with character and memories – both of which your decor can reflect. As we embark into 2024, the latest trends provide opportunities for you to find the inspiration and perfect pieces that embrace your individual style.
Whether you’re searching for bright and bold or soft and comforting, 2024 home decor trends are going to add the YOU back into your home.
So, what are the 2024 home decor trends that we should be keeping an eye out for?

Original Woodwork
Exposed, original woodwork is really pioneering, especially with fans of home renovation. However, it’s not just high beams and wood flooring that we’re expecting to trend in 2024, but also natural woodwork in furniture, frames and home decor.
Why do people adore natural wood?
Original or exposed woodwork has a natural beauty to it, generating a warm and cosy aesthetic. Wood adds texture and character to a space, with unique grain patterns and intentional imperfections, whilst bringing a biophilic design into the indoors. Many also like the look of wood as it has a timeless appeal, connecting the home to historical and cultural significance, as well as traditional craftsmanship. It’s also completely versatile, meaning you can add natural wood in all areas of your home, including flooring, furniture, trimmings and decor.

Bold Lighting
Bold lighting is set to make a statement in 2024 home decor. Why should light shades be boring? Turn them into conversation starters with 3D shapes, artistic and conceptual pieces exactly what we’re expecting to see in lighting fixtures this year.
Make every room bright and different
We have lights all over our homes, from cosy nooks to overhead hanging bulbs. However, bold lighting creates a statement – drawing attention to every corner of the room – whilst also influencing its ambiance. Even if you have quite a muted decor theme, bold lighting can serve as a focal point, whilst adding to the overall aesthetics of the space.

Saturated Colours
We’re leaving the soft and muted tones in 2023, moving towards bright saturated colours in the coming year. Think bold statement colour schemes, painting the walls in all your favourite colours, making your home truly a reflection of you and your family’s character.

Make every room a statement piece
We’re loving saturated colours in 2024 because they bring vibrancy and energy into a space, breathing life back into your home. These hues allow you to fully express your individual personality and style throughout your home, brightening moods and creating a more positive and energetic space. Bold statement colours prevent your home from feeling dull or monotonous.

Vintage and Antique
We were pleased to learn that the love for vintage and antique decor is really going to pique in 2024. If you’re a fan of the old, the odd and the unique, then this year is going to be the perfect time for you to find some forever pieces for your home.
Why is old the new new?
The new year is embracing timeless appeal when it comes to home decor. This style gives the home a classic and enduring aesthetic, with one-of-a-kind pieces that add a sense of individuality and character. The craftsmanship of vintage and antique furniture and decor showcases the owner’s appreciation for history, skill and attention to detail, whilst also promoting sustainability – something important to consider when we talk about ‘trends’. Vintage and antique decor comes in a huge array of styles and designs, allowing you to find the perfect pieces to fit into your home’s aesthetic.
Luxury Spa
‘Quiet luxury’ was a term we heard a lot in 2023 – a soft opulence of expensive taste within a home. However this year, this ‘luxury’ feel is moving more towards a relaxing, spa-type aesthetic – set to make every home feel like the most luxurious, wellness hub.
Making your home a place to relax
Your home should be your sanctuary, and 2024 home decor trends are set to make this a visual reality. Making your home feel like a spa is about creating a tranquil environment, which contributes to stress reduction – a retreat from the demands of everyday life. Creating a space in your home dedicated to mindful living can often look like plants, natural materials and neutral colour palettes, with furnishing inspired by aesthetics, functionality and comfort. We see a huge rise in candles, luxurious linens and soft lighting as this trend develops.

Mix and Match
In what world are we tied to everything being so matchy-matchy? Not 2024, that’s for sure! A huge trend moving from fashion to home decor is a conscious mix-and-match approach of metals, textures and even eras.
Find the perfect balance of mix-and-match in your home
Mix and matching is dynamic and modern, breaking away from traditional approaches to home decor. Blending up your decor adds visual complexity and contrasting aesthetics to your home, customised to your own unique and personal style. The combination of old and new, cool and warm, soft and hard can be done in so many ways, creating versatility and flexibility when decorating a space – preventing a visually flat or monotone appearance.
