The Top 5 Interior Design Trends to Watch for in 2023

From the luxurious appeal of bold marble countertops to the functional elegance of double kitchen islands, the landscape of interior design is continually evolving. As we delve into 2023, we're witnessing a surge in innovative design projects that embrace these top trends. Alongside these, expect to see a rise in sustainable materials, a revival of vintage accents, and the integration of smart home technology, all of which are shaping the way we conceive and interact with our living spaces. Industry experts predict that these trends will not only enhance aesthetic appeal but also cater to the growing demand for comfort and eco-conscious choices in home interiors.

We are opening up traditional kitchens and thinking way beyond remodeling cabinets to extending into other parts of the home. In the coming year, we expect to see even larger kitchen islands — and even double islands. The top interior design trend is towards accommodating for larger entertaining and gathering space in the kitchen. We are also expanding outside the box by opening up windows and doors for indoor outdoor living and allowing more natural light to promote wellness and a more integrated home with your backyard environment.

Wellness is a driving factor of design for 2023, as the quest for health and well-being becomes integral to our living spaces. Biophilic design elements that promote self-care and tranquility are transforming homes into personal sanctuaries. Our clients are embracing the trend of creating a home spa experience, starting with the addition of skylights that bathe showers in soothing natural light, enhancing the sense of connection to the outdoors. Alongside this, features like dry saunas, steam rooms, and the innovative integration of Fisher Paykel undercounter refrigerators for chilled towels and beverages contribute to a bespoke cryotherapy restorative wellness spa within the comfort of your home. We are dedicated to cultivating new ideas for self-care habits that not only go a long way in promoting longevity and healthy living but also create serene and restorative environments. The use of calming color palettes, air-purifying plants, and non-toxic, sustainable materials further underscores the movement towards spaces that embody beauty, comfort, and a commitment to physical and mental well-being


Bold Marble Backsplashes with Open Shelves

More and more homeowners are incorporating bold statement pieces of marble in their kitchens and bathroom countertops to create a focal point and add a touch of drama. You can achieve this look with a bolder use of colors, unique veining styles, or both!

We love the simple clean-lined look of this open shelf to create opportunities for decor so you can keep your countertop clean and free from clutter.






Sleek Appliances


Cabinetry and kitchen islands are statement pieces within the home, and our clients are opting for minimalism cabinetry styles and wanting their appliances to compliment the overall design. Induction cooktops and ranges are especially gaining traction because of their sleek look, safety, and efficiency that not only look great in the space but also offers powerful performance. Integration and panel ready appliances is key for creating a modern kitchen






Organic Materials and Shapes


This trend towards softer earth tones with curvaceous forms and imbuing elements of nature within our homes reflects a desire for comfort, albeit in a more sophisticated and refined manner with the incorporation of metals, rocks, and harder textures to add juxtaposition and visual complexity. Defining space with smooth undulations and shapes in objects that mimic forms found in nature to contrast with modern elements is the winning combination.
