The most extraordinary spaces are personal, inviting and evolve overtime. Great interiors contains highs and lows, old and new and a blend of pattern and texture. They don’t look like they’ve been plucked from the most current and in demand furniture catalog. So, when asked “What are the most important trends for 2011?”, I tried peeling away the current images of chic product ads and focused on décor elements that are timeless, innovative or making a resurgence. So with that, here is what’s trending for 2011…

I've always loved animal prints and always will! I even used red zebra ribbons in my wreaths for the holidays. The bold color I do see as the biggest influence for the coming year -- nice fresh change. Your images are great.
ReplyDeleteGreat post - all of your predictions can fit anyone's style, too.
ReplyDeleteReally love all these choices. You did a great job. Hope you are well.
ReplyDeleteI love the global/worldly trend and hope to see it everywhere! You did a great job with all of these palettes!

Thanks for visiting! I'm now your latest follower. ;-)
ReplyDeleteWell, since I recently stenciled the top 1/3 of the walls in my landscape design home office with a silver & white quatrefoil design, I'm glad I'm right on target with the stenciling and bold print! I stenciled because I wasn't brave enough to try wallpaper but it didn't take me very long to WISH I had wallpapered instead!
ReplyDeleteI don't know what the trends are INSIDE a home but I'm enjoying the new outdoor trends toward sustainability and 'growing local'.
Well researched and exciting to see what's on trend for 2011!
ReplyDeleteLoving the metallic and Ikat wallpaper!
ReplyDeleteThis is great info on what to see coming up! Now deciding what elements to add to our home! Thanks for the great post and info as always :-)
ReplyDeleteYes yes! Great predictions!
ReplyDeleteI am SO loving some of the vintage stuff. My 1940s home has been slowly getting a few pieces here and there updated...I love that the bold fabrics are a prediction too!

The bold wall coverings are my favorite. I need to bite the bullet!
ReplyDeleteThanks for compiling the possible interiors next year. My wife has also anticipated some of these for our house remodel (MN-based). Moreover, such designs were also agreed by the group of remodelers (Minneapolis-based), whom we consulted. Thanks again for posting!
ReplyDeleteSeeing a rush to the faux fur throws - in animal shape and particularly the white.
ReplyDeleteAlso seeing a lot of white/neutral cream - accessories. We will be highlighting this white kick soon on our blog My Design Guide
A mix of vintage and antique suits me perfectly. I think it's a very promising "forecast" for 2011!
ReplyDeleteI like all of those trends.
ReplyDeleteI adore the Nina Campbell wallpaper, but the Worldly look is very appealing to me, too.
ReplyDeletelove your forecast for 2011! there are elements in each grouping that i love -
ReplyDeletethanks for sharing!
Brilliant predictions especially on the BOLD section - spot on for Spring 2011! x
