🏡 2026 design trends we’re seeing everywhere… and what we think is coming in 2027 👀

2026 has officially said goodbye to the cold, overly-minimal, “everything must match” look. We’re seeing homes become warmer, more layered and a LOT more personal.

✨ What’s trending in 2026:
• Warm earthy tones replacing cool gray
• Brown, walnut + natural wood
• Curved furniture + softer architectural details
• Layered textures and tactile materials
• Vintage + antique pieces mixed with modern
• Sculptural lighting
• More color and personality
• Homes that actually look lived in

And looking ahead to 2027…

🔮 We’re expecting even more of:
• Richer, moodier colors . . . think chocolate brown, aubergine, deep greens
• Color-drenched rooms, including ceilings + trim
• Statement stone with lots of natural movement
• Burl wood, grasscloth + other traditional materials
• Custom drapery, trims and upholstery
• “Analog” spaces. . . reading nooks, game rooms and places to unplug
• Kitchens that feel more like living spaces
• Mixing design eras instead of buying everything from the same collection
• More collected, one-of-a-kind interiors

Basically… less “showroom,” more “this house has a story.”

And honestly? We’re here for it. 🤎

Which trend would you bring into your home and which one are you leaving behind?

Spooky season, but make it elevated. 🖤🕯️

Halloween decor doesn’t have to mean plastic skeletons and neon orange. Here are 5 ways to bring the drama while keeping your home chic 👇

1️⃣ THE GOTHIC MANTEL
Gather mismatched antique brass candlesticks (thrift stores are gold for these) and fill them with black and ivory tapers at different heights. Lean a gilded mirror behind them so the candlelight doubles, then drape it with sheer black cheesecloth for a haunted-manor veil.

2️⃣ MOODY MONOCHROME PUMPKINS
Skip the orange. Paint real or faux pumpkins in matte black, charcoal and bone white, and keep the natural stems for an organic touch. Mix in a few velvet ones for texture, then stack them in odd numbers on your front steps.

3️⃣ THE APOTHECARY BAR CART
Fill amber and smoked-glass bottles with dried lavender, rosemary and seed pods. Add handwritten labels like “Raven Feathers” or “Moonwater,” then finish with a glass cloche over a small skull or raven. It’s a conversation starter that doubles as a cocktail station.

4️⃣ SHADOW PLAY ENTRY
Cut bats or moths from black cardstock and arrange them in a loose flight path climbing the wall by your front door, so they look like they’re escaping out a window. At night, aim a warm uplight at them for dramatic shadows. More art installation than Halloween aisle.

5️⃣ THE DARK HARVEST TABLESCAPE
Start with a black linen runner and layer in dried florals dyed in deep tones. Add a pedestal bowl overflowing with plum grapes, smoked glassware and clusters of flickering votives. Write each guest’s name on a dried leaf for an effortless place card.

Which look are you stealing? Tell us below, and save this for your next decorating day 🦇

Your home, beautifully haunted.
