Design Trends for 2011

Tuesday, January 18, 2011


as we enter a new year, there will always be a new set of trends that will become very apparent- in fashion, design- everything! after some research, here are a few trends for 2011!

mirrored accents
Anything from mirrored tables and mirrored accessories such as cocktail trays, martini glasses, and coasters will be a hit this year. You can pick up a mirrored tray from Aero for $90, a set of four Etsy martini glasses for $42, and mirrored coasters at Z Gallerie for $19.80. Inexpensive, and chic!

typography
Modern art is going to be huge this year... and prints like this instantly freshens the look of your home! Check Ikea, Target, and Etsy! Or if your really crafty, create your own work of art!

storage art
i LOVE storage art! What to buy: primarily clear, Lucite storage to show off accessories instead of hiding them away. Vintage desks can be used as vanities to store shoes, clear stands can be used to show off necklaces, and scarf holders,The photo above is from Ikea- it can be hung from the wall to show off colorful accessories. Check the container store too!

mid-centry lighting
Who doesn't love some vintage light? Think "Mad Men"! Mid-century lighting can be added to traditional and contemporary rooms. Again, check Ikea!
The color rust
now, i know you've all read my Color 2011 post, so I know you know the colors for 2011, but rust is a great accent metal color! Use this color as a subtle accent in a headboard, lamp, or even a sideboard! Check West Elm!
