   You all must have heard how pantone’s color of the year is making waves among fashion and interior designers. The color has become the talk of the creative town and almost every interior designer is endorsing this exotic new shade of plum and reds of the wine. The color is versatile enough and can go perfectly well with many other soft hues like turquoise, lilac, dusk orange and blue. The striking ability of this enchanting color can either be used in walls or if you want a subtle throw of marsala in your décor then bring it in through accent pieces or furniture.

2. Copper accents:

   Rose gold or copper in accents can be seen not just in light fixtures anymore, they are everywhere, from accessories to hardware, plumbing and elsewhere. The reason why they have become the new dearly beloved of interior designers is the subtle glamorous charm of copper, the hue of rose gold and the beauty it forms when combined together as an accent piece. Adding a bling to lackluster decors, copper is amalgamated in almost all types of decors, be it commercial or residential. Rose gold when mixed with turquoise makes a stand-out combination.

3. Walls that talk:

   Thankfully the days of dull and boring walls are finally over, we don’t follow the same color themes or drape our windows in heavily frilled and layered fabrics in the name of curtains. The walls are now treated as pieces of art, adding colors, patterns, text and all that you love on these newly found canvases is what that is trending. If you don’t like plain walls then just cover them up in chevrons or other geometric patterns through paint or wall papers.

4. Windows that illuminate:

   Windows are the resource through which your rooms will naturally illuminate, so treat them accordingly. There is a growing trend of customized shades for windows that can be used to replace curtains. If you’re still into curtains then use light weight and most preferably sheer fabrics. Ombre and bold prints are the new hot in sheer curtains and can easily transform the look of your home.

5. Cover up with a rug:
   
   No matter how gorgeous or not so gorgeous you floor is; a rug can add more volume and vibrancy to the entire feel of your room. The best thing about rugs is they can cover up the flaws of some bad flooring or just harmonize with the colors of your room and accentuate it even more. Rugs can come in all shapes and sizes, make sure you choose them according to the area of your room and the color palette it follows.

In my opinion, these are the most practical trends, one can easily follow and bring a new look to their interiors. You can easily pick one from these and implement in a New Year renovation.
