Top 10 Trends in Furniture That You can Incorporate Right Now!

'Tis the season of Furniture for the holidays!

With shorter lead times and more choices than ever, we are loving the new (and not so new) trends in furniture design. We continue to see a welcomed trend of good quality, family friendly, nature inspired pieces along with vintage finds that tell a story and go light on the environment.

Here are a few of our favorite trends that we think are here to stay!

1. Sustainable and Eco-Friendly Materials

Reclaimed wood, recycled materials, and natural fibers like jute, bamboo, and cork are being used in furniture designs, emphasizing sustainability.

Upcycling and vintage furniture are also trending as consumers embrace eco-conscious choices.

2. Curved and Organic Shapes

Softer, more organic lines in furniture (curved sofas, rounded armchairs, etc.) offer a more inviting and comfortable aesthetic compared to rigid, angular designs.

This style echoes the biophilic trend by bringing fluid, natural forms into the home.

3. Multifunctional Pieces

With the continued trend of small-space living, furniture that serves more than one purpose is in demand.

Items like sofa beds, storage ottomans, and extendable tables reflect the desire for practicality without sacrificing style.

4. Bold Colors and Statement Pieces

Vibrant hues like burnt orange, deep greens, and rich blues are making a comeback, along with patterns. Accent furniture like chairs or cabinets in bold shades can transform spaces into a more fun and lively atmosphere.

Statement pieces (like a dramatic armchair or sculptural coffee table) are designed to stand out.

5. Natural Textures

Woven textures, rattan, caned furniture, and other natural elements are being incorporated into modern furniture, adding tactile appeal and warmth.

Mixed materials, such as metal frames paired with natural wood or stone, are gaining traction.

6. Minimalism with Personality

While minimalism continues to dominate, there is a shift toward incorporating personalized elements.

Furniture with simple lines but unexpected details (such as a pop of color or a unique finish) aligns with this trend.

7. Biophilic Design

Indoor-outdoor living is a growing theme, reflected in furniture that brings the outside in. Natural materials, plant-inspired designs, and earth-tone color palettes are at the heart of this trend.

8. Modular Furniture

Modular designs allow for flexibility in arranging and rearranging spaces. Customizable sectionals and shelving units let homeowners adapt their furniture based on their evolving needs.

9. Luxury Comfort

The desire for plush, cozy furniture is increasing, with deep, overstuffed sofas, large sectionals, and soft fabrics like velvet or bouclé becoming popular.

A focus on comfort without compromising elegance or sophistication is key.

10. Tech-Integrated Furniture

Smart furniture like desks with built-in charging stations or couches with integrated lighting and speakers are becoming more common as technology and home design merge.

These trends reflect the balance between comfort, functionality, and the desire for unique, sustainable pieces that connect homeowners with their personal style and nature.

Renee possesses a rare combination of artistic creativity and intuitive design.  Her warmth and compassion extended beyond working with us to understanding the style and feel of our home and how we live in it.  We felt fortunate to work with and get to know Renee and absolutely love the updates she made to our home- from windows and walls to artwork and furniture!

Kate S.

Renee was a pleasure to work with and has great vision. We were doing a total rehab of a recently purchased property and she was able to look at a gutted out '50s cottage and turn it into a beautiful mid-century modern home. She understood our budget and timeline and was good about narrowing all our options down to just a few choices. This expedited the process, made it less difficult and more enjoyable. Once the rehab is done, we look forward to working with her again and finish the rest of the rooms.

Bill H.

Renee at Mandeville Canyon Interior Design was simply wonderful to work with. She was able to understand what we were looking for in terms of color, function and design from the moment we first spoke. She's easy to work with, goes above and beyond and delivers an outstanding design.

I highly recommend Renee and Mandeville Canyon Interior Design. I don't think I will attempt to decorate another room in my house without the help of Renee!

Pam O.

Love working with Renee and Mandeville Canyon Interior Design ! I had the opportunity to collaborate on a large scale design project recently and the results were fantastic! Creative, resourceful and one of kind design ideas made this design opportunity with Renee "one of a kind" Have a large or small project? You won't be disappointed!!

Mary S.

Renee not only has an amazingly creative eye, she also directed a massive renovation for us this past year that included the challenges of operating during the pandemic. She put together a team that had an incredible work ethic and brought the project in on-time and on-budget. She's a great listener. When we threw ideas at her, she was never dismissive; quite the contrary, she made them better. Her patience, attention to detail combined with her whacky sense of humor meant we were all able to smile while producing a home that we love. A great talent and a great lady.

Ann R.

Rene is amazing!  Great customer care and wonderful attention to detail.
