Top Trends of 2017: The Materials that are in!

     Marbled wall paper, indoor vines and the gorgeous Hygge concept, we've walked you through some of our favorite design trends for 2017. As February ends, always a bit too early, we bring you our last post on what's in for 2017. So here's the scoop on the materials you want to splurge on this year!

Copper:

  Copper is shiny but not too shiny, soulful and warm. It's a great material to add around your house in small amounts or as accent pieces.

   Copper walls work well in minimalist neutral toned spaces. You can also mix the marble and the copper trend to create this gorgeous wallpaper effect.
 

          Copper looks great on small decor accents like vases, planters, mirrors etc.

       Still want to add copper as an eye catcher? Lamps and lanterns are the way to go!

            Exposed pipework is a trend that has continued from 2016 to 2017. It looks great in bathrooms as the images shows!

Acrylic:

     This modern material is making waves this season! For the minimalist chic look, this clear material looks great as photo frames, coffee table tops and lots more! The best thing about acrylic is that it is like glass but a lot lighter and remains clear even when thick!

    How pretty are these acrylic storage pieces! They lighten the room in a beautiful way.

             Acrylic wall decor like these stickers act as functional mirrors while prettying up your wall1

         Adding small pieces of acrylic furniture like the coffee tables in this living room and the chair by the study table, is a great way to lighten the visual weight of a room. Pieces like compliment wooden furniture in a truly striking way!

Wood

        The last material we are looking at is none other than the age old favorite- wood. But 2017 asks that wood be displayed in your tile work! Wooden tiles come in various tones, colors and shapes! Choose from grayish whites to warm rusts, hexagon shaped to chevron patterns. 

Wooden tiling works on floors, walls and many other surfaces! It's definitely a material that speaks volumes of warmth and coziness.

           So there you have it! The "in" materials for 2017. Definitely ones that can be mixed and matched and added in varying amounts.
