Pinterest Predicts: Home Decor Trends For 2024

Elements of style now considered timeless—such as Chinoiserie—began as trends. So although true style transcends trends, it also evolves. Keeping an eye on trends ensures that your style doesn’t stay fixed in a particular time and instead accommodates your changing likes, dislikes, and needs. With all that in mind, below are Pinterest’s design trend predictions, based largely on search terms that have seen significant growth during the past year.

Aquatecture

If 2023 was the year of the mushroom in decor, this will be the year of the jellyfish—and other aquatic creatures. Pinterest is seeing increased interest in aquariums, turtle tanks, while searches for “jellyfish lamp”—an aquatic take on the lava lamp—have nearly doubled during the past year. Think of it as a twist on coastal chic, with seahorses and octopi subbing for anchors and buoys.

Favourite Aquatecture Pieces:

Deliciae Naturae Framed Art Prints. Stylish collection of 9 vintage prints depicting exquisite hand-illustrated artworks of marine algae and sea shells.
Kipos Lampshade. Elegantly illustrating details of beautiful seashells from ancient Greece, the Kipos Lampshade is a beautiful decorative lighting piece.
Aquarium Wallpaper. Splendid corals, parrotfish and swaying seaweed exist harmoniously in the luxurious pattern of the Aquarium Wallpaper. Adding charm and joy to any space, the design beautifully traces the shapes and colours of intriguing fish species, encountered on a sunny holiday somewhere in the Mediterranean Sea.
Coral Placemats. These fresh, modern table mats feature vintage coral shapes on an elegant eau de nil background. The tasteful pink enables the designs to stand out against the pale background; perfect for any coastal home or to entertain outdoors in the summertime! Coordinate with the matching Coral Coasters.
Octopoda Deep Sea Blue Wallpaper. An unapologetically eye catching design with an eight limbed creature sprawled across the pattern, it's sure to bring any room to life.

Silver & Chrome

Warm gold and brass, cornerstones of quiet luxury, are expected to give way to cooler silvery metallics. Which is not to say that these trending metals aren’t also luxe. A silver teapot or silver champagne bucket for instance, conjures up Gilded Age opulence, and sterling-silver picture frames are timelessly elegant. Yet when teamed with sleek curves and burnished to a reflective gleam, silvery metals can seem more contemporary, even more youthful than other metallics.

Integrating flashes of silver into your decor doesn’t necessitate ditching your gold, bronze, or brass. Forget the old dictum that one shouldn’t mix metals, though you probably don’t want to feature more than three types of a metal in a room. By the same token, while it’s fine to have one dominant metal in a room, there should be some sort of balance: A lone silver frame amid a gallery wall of gold-framed art will seem jarring.

Favourite Silver & Chrome Pieces:

Spheres Teapot. Luxury stainless steel teapot designed to brew the perfect pot of tea equipped with an infuser basket for all kinds of loose leaf tea.
Keste Antique Silver Rectangular Mirror. Features unique scalloped edges in silver and smart touches of antique detailing on the edges; a chic addition to your home.
Palm Beach Silver Drinks Trolley. Entertain in style whether you're stylishly storing your favourite drinks or entertaining at home.

Western Gothic

Take hallmarks of Western Americana style: cowhide, antlers, wrought iron. Then swap out the typical Western palette of earth tones, taupes, and sun-bleached woods for black and the darkest, deepest browns. The result is what Pinterest dubs "Western Gothic." You can get started with a layer of dark sheepskin atop a natural fibre rug, toss a black throw over a leather armchair.

Favourite Western Gothic Pieces:

Bryant Studded Wingback Leather Armchair. A classic ebony leather armchair with a high winged comfortable back, rollover arms, a solid beech wood structure and finished with vintage brass rivets.
Grey Double Sheepskin Rug. Whether thrown over a chair, tucked into the arm of a sofa or placed by your bed, our sheepskins provide a comforting, yet sophisticated style to the interiors of your home.
Running Free Framed Print. Beautifully captured image is perfect for equestrian and photography lovers alike.
