5 Popular Home Design Trends for 2021

1. Coziness
   
   Since most of us are still staying home in 2021, adding coziness to your space is paramount.  Try bringing in soft textiles in the form of throws, blankets, shaggy rugs and, pillows.  Candles are also a must-have when incorporating a cozy vibe into your home.
   
   
2. Minimalism
   
   Less is indeed more.  For this design trend choose decor pieces that you really love and that have meaning.  For example - choose quality over quantity. Get rid of cluttered objects and select decor pieces that deliver maximum impact.  
   
   
3. Nature
   
   Bringing in nature-inspired decor such as plants brings life into your space,  improves the aesthetic, and is also beneficial to the environment.  Also, when selecting decor objects choose colors that are found in nature such as rustic vases, neutral paint colors, driftwood, and terra-cotta pots.  
   
   
4. Privacy Walls

        This design trend is gaining popularity because our lifestyle has shifted due to people working from home, children having virtual classrooms at home, and others have extended families moving back into the home.  Privacy tends to be an issue when there are so many activities going on at once so the solution to that is putting up dividers, and/or privacy walls.

    5.  Streamlined Furniture

        Simple, and clean lines seem to be the trend in home furnishings in 2021.  Gone are curvy and scrolled furniture that is bulky which tends to make a room feel heavy and depressed.  Instead opt for matte white lacquer furniture, modular storage systems, and industrial-chic accessories.
