Opt for curvaceous and contemporary decor
Leading designers share their views on how to create a special, festive ambience in your home for the parties that will be held during the last two months of 2014 and while ringing in 2015
Diwali has just finshed dazzling us and now, the focus is on gearing up our homes for Christmas and New Year celebrations. So what are the home decor trends and styles that would be in vogue through 2014 and beyond?
Yamini Agarwal, Founder, H5 Design, feels that play of textures added through an assortment of materials such as wallpapers, fabric and leather panelling, wood, metal, stone, tile and glass cladding in various effects on all surfaces is trending. Furniture is simple and accessories are added as loud accents in metals and abstract forms. Precision and perfection achieved through technology is marvelled in the market.
Decor styles change every year with new collections, colours and materials. Practical, comfortable and eco-friendly designs are everlasting. The trends are moving slowly from a straight line modern form to a curvaceous contemporary. We are looking forward to a future of design that is easy on the eyes, comfortable yet creative, redefining ergonomics, Yamini explains.
Mumbai is high on humidity so materials such as leather, wallpaper and certain metals react to the weather and may not have a long life or demand heavy maintenance. There are plenty of treated materials available in the market, which can be suitable instead. Engineered wood, laminates, glass, corian in addition to stone and tiles are ideal, Yamini points out.
Nothing is more comforting and rewarding as making a rangoli at the entrance of your home with a bandanwar hanging above the gate. Trends have moved from traditional diyas to scented candles, lanterns and decorative hanging tea light holders.
Furnishings are the easiest to redo in order to transform the look of an interior. A few new cushions, throws, rugs and a textured wall can be done without much effort. Invest in a good painting or artwork to add that special focus in the space, Yamini recommends.
