2. Flooring
Serving a foundation for your interior project, flooring plays a crucial part in your design both visually and physically. Sophisticated, textured, three-dimensional, opulent flooring is a key interior design trend for 2023. There is also a huge hype around brutalism for the season, so watch out as concrete could be back.
Subtle yet textured carpets with an organic feel are big on trend this year. Environmentally conscious, handwoven designs provide an even greater tactility.

Consider bold stripes, wavy patterns and mood-boosting designs an official interior design trend for 2023. Instantly recognisable, these designs are thought to create a sense of optimism, fluidity and happiness which evokes a sense of relaxation and wellbeing.

The importance of furniture in any interior design project is to make your space feel complete, functional and contributes to a meaningful home. Curved, warm and natural furniture is on trend for this year in textured fabrics such as boucle. The dining room table will also be making a comeback. Furniture has a huge impact on our environment, so a conscious approach should be at the forefront to any project, especially purchasing items that are created to last.
