These 31 New Interior Design Concepts for 2023 Will Revolutionize Interior Decoration

New quarters for the new year. Put up your 2023 interior planning ideas below. Predictions for the next year and beyond, as determined by a group of interior designers who have their fingers on the pulse of the industry. Now that the epidemic seems to be waning, experts in the design industry and on TikTok forecast a bright new direction for interior decoration, full of bold hues and eco-friendly do-it-yourself projects while still favoring elements drawn from nature. 

While light green color schemes are still popular—especially for kitchen cabinets—pink is rising. Repurposed furniture, such as instructions on converting a dining room table into a stylish coffee table or constructing a plant sanctuary from an old apothecary cabinet, is also enjoying a moment. One of the most interesting aspects of upcoming home builders design trends in 2023 is the blending of old and new styles, a modern take on the always trendy grand millennial look. As Ashleigh Clark, principal of Ashleigh Clark Interior Design Group in Cleveland, puts it, "2023 is taking us to a new level of design," the year is just seven years away. "During the epidemic, we saw a bland aesthetic resulting in dwellings resembling advertisements on Pinterest. Today's consumers seek brands with personality and heart. The trend of decorating with one's style is on the rise. Homes are becoming more inviting and distinct due to natural materials and unique artwork. 

Use wood tones to add warmth to your design. 

Designer Lindye Galloway of Costa Mesa, California's Lindye Galloway Design Studio and Shop says that cozy wood is returning. "Wood can bring warmth, depth, and an intimate feel that creates a serene scene," she explains. Galloway will include it in the bathroom's ceiling or vanity whenever possible. "This can be especially useful in an all-white bathroom, where you want to preserve a sense of airiness while still imparting a sense of warmth," she says. DIY projects on a smaller scale include installing a wooden frame around an outdated mirror or replacing drab metal drawer handles with chic wooden ones. Second, make sleeping quarters more stylish.

New York designer Tara McCauley, who was responsible for this bedroom's design for the 2022 Brooklyn Heights Designer Showhouse, drew inspiration from Elsa Schiaparelli, a fashion designer who worked in Paris at the height of the Art Deco and Surrealist movements. McCauley says, "I wanted to juxtapose the rectilinear headboard and bedside lamps with something soft." The draped canopy over the bed contrasts the sleek, machine-inspired shapes typical of the Art Deco era. Glancing at any film set from Hollywood's Golden Age will show how seamlessly Art Deco and Hollywood Regency coexisted. Create a canopy in your favorite style with these expert DIY instructions. 

Food storage is still king.

We've come to value pantries that optimize storage and facilitate work even more during the last several years. Sherrell Neal, an owner of Sherrell Design Studio in Houston, says that if quarantine helped her learn anything during the epidemic, it was how to become more organized. We organize our meals, categorize our food categories, and create our shopping lists in the pantry, so it's more than simply a dumping ground for dry products. It's so convenient that it's almost an addition to the kitchen. Neal believes the current focus on pantries will continue into the next year. 

Combine modern with vintage.

New York-based designer Joshua Smith argues that combining antiques with modern furniture is a timeless look that will always stay in style. "The thrill of combining these items is incorporating modern pieces into more traditional spaces, or vice versa," Smith proposes adding a French Louis chair into a modern space. Don't go crazy with commas and other punctuation marks in there. Moreover, "it brings confusion to the energy of the space," he says. "Consider the ways in which the objects are similar in terms of color, texture, and shape." 

Accept plastering

Plastering the walls and ceilings is the next step in improving the space. "Plaster is making a comeback along with all other natural surfaces because of the character it adds to a space and the character that it adds over time as it lives in a space," says Katie Paulsen, an interior designer at Dallas' Maestri Studio. To paraphrase the author, "Even in its most polished state, it adds a comfort that can't be achieved with faux looks." You want to avoid a significant makeover, do you? Paulsen recommends decorating with chandeliers, side tables, and fireplace mantels made of plaster. "Its versatility allows us to use it in so many different ways," she continues. We anticipate its widespread use and say, "Look for it almost everywhere." 

Revisit the flooring and walls of your bathroom. 

Gardemal suggests going vintage with hexagons, rhomboids, and circles for a bathroom floor or wall remodel. He notes that although these particular tile forms have been around for centuries, the availability of tiles in a wider range of sizes has given them a new lease of life. To get that timeless vintage look, consider using white, gray, and black tiles. Consider using bigger tiles with patterned accent tiles with metallic or iridescent glazes instead.
