To ask what you would say are decor trends at the moment?

[DotTheCaddy]

I'd say:

Navy/green
Botanicals
Jungle print
Gold accents

In the past few years "everyone" painted at least one wall navy, or maybe dark green, and lots of jungle, gold, marble etc. Very opulent and moody.

But now it's reached Wilko and George at ASDA so I think the trend coming up will push against this - returning to white, or bright, fun ice cream shades used together - a bit like this www.instagram.com/p/CATGVWfHapC/?igshid=ft0fn54fy29y

Hmm I'm not a fan of that @nanbread

Much prefer the greens/jungle vibe.

Grey, navy.

DD came home for lockdown and despaired of our taste. She "modernised", got rid of the grey and the navy and everywhere is white/morrocan tiles/plants/stripped wood/wicker baskets/Tim Walker prints.
I actually love it.

The problem with greys is that there is a huge range of shades, warm and cool, light and dark, but I think a lot of people just use them as they think they are on trend without properly considering the room, the colour of the light, and what they are aiming to achieve. That’s why you often see greys used that suck the life out of a room when what it probably needed was a grey that would warm it up.

It’s also true that for some people greys are calming, and that is exactly the feeling they want in a room. For others greys are just dull, and they long for a bit of colour.

It’s exactly why we don’t all go for the same colour clothes, what works for one person might be awful on another or make them feel really uncomfortable. There is no sense criticising the colour of someone’s room if it creates the feeling they want for them, any more than you can criticise the colour of a jumper they’ve chosen. As long as they are happy with their choice, they are the one who lives with it!

@lovelemoncurd love your lounge!

Monkeys- no more sloths or flamingos
Palms
Rattan and macrame
Bold seventies prints
Teal, Mustard, Burnt Orange
Hollywood glamour
Iridescent glass
Copper accents
Smoked glass lam shade and pendants
Verdi Gris effects
Living walls
hints of Deco (but not the whole Poirot look)
Hostess trollies

Swans
Silver
Neutrals
Slate not just for the floor
Mix not match

Definitely not matchy matchy.

Yellow is the colour? Just no.

@DotTheCaddy Thank you. It will probably not be on trend soon but hey ho I like it.

Everything seems to be grey, blush, ochre or navy at the moment. Or art deco inspired. Or a combination of both. I'm finding it hard to find cushions, rugs etc that are not any of the above!

House trends

Navy yes! Seeing navy walls everywhere and dark green too! I think dark colours make a room look so cosy!

I do love white walls with colourful furniture and prints too.

Oh another thing is black. Black walls and black fittings, so matte black taps and shower heads, love it.

Watch out for the black fixtures if you're in a hard water area!

I've not seen any black yet! Plenty of gold though.

Damn! It’s chalk central here, boo!

Yes black or almost black walls is an edgier version of navy, we're reaching peak dark blue if where I live is any indication. So over it.

I've also noticed a few v trendy people paint their rooms in paean black by F&B which is an almost red/purple black.

😂 @nanbread - my husband painted the walls of his first house that colour green and friends - , and me - teased him mercilessly over almost 20 years ago calling it the pea pod.
I'm not going to tell him it's now fashionable although his was teamed with shag pile carpet s and Miami colour theme
