Excitement greets a new year, and today’s decor trends 2021 show and tell highlights exciting style predictions coming your way.
As for my personal formula of predicting interior design and decorating trends, I take into account various predictions from knowledgeable insiders, do a quick retrospect of the previous year’s hit and misses, factor in personal taste, and suggest accordingly.
My personal advice regarding first of the year trends is to tread lightly into the what’s trending pool in order to eliminate decorating regret.
Good taste, judgment, and an impeccable sense of personal style will guide your decor trends 2021 choices.
Face Line Art
Home decor accessories and accents brimming with visual appeal prominently work the room to introduce two key elements in decorating- contrast and character.
Face line art pieces emulate drawings in the style of Picasso and Matisse, representing broadened interpretations and color choices.
Being a fan of the mix and mingle aspect of decor styles, I love introducing a piece of face line art in all its fun and funky glory into a traditional or formal aesthetic.

Hello, dark blue kitchens.
If total color immersion, dark blue or any other color, does not appeal to your color scheme and style, consider using the color on a standout feature such as a kitchen island.
Old-World Charm
I’ve long regarded the distinctive details found in old-world charm accents and accessories as conversation pieces.
Pieces rich in unique design features and storied provenance create points of visual interest and conversation.

Bringing the beauty of the outdoors indoors never looked so good.
Copper Cookware
Culinary preparation is performance art at its delicious best.
Copper cookware and decorative accents remain an elegant element and traditional choice of material to complement taste, space, and of course to compliment the chef.
Neutrals
Neutral colors are no longer thought of as dull, boring or unimaginative home decor, accents, paint and furnishings options.

Rather a primary color choice to the space or color palette complement, neutral colors deliver on all focal point points.
I really do love how neutrals play so well together with the other colors found on the design and decor playground.
Dark Hues
Moody.
Dramatic.
Dynamite look.
Mushroom Lamps
For some time now I’ve been noticing the popularity of the mushroom in everything from cookies to footstools to mushroom lamps.
Toadstool trend?
It’s hot at present, and I must admit I owned and wish I still had both the aforementioned mushroom footstool and mushroom lamp that adorned my condo circa 1982.
Everything old is new again at one time or another.
