The phrase "interior design trends" initially seems contradictory. Furniture, textiles, art, and wall coverings are too heavy, expensive, and durable to be updated frequently, so decor doesn't usually follow seasonal trends or temporary fads. However, interior design trends have been evolving with the passage of time and now refer to more subtle ways of refreshing an existing space, such as through lighting, textiles, and paint colors, for example, are a much easier way to update an interior design scheme than replacing furniture while still allowing the homeowner to have some control over the look and feel of their home. Our Auburn, AL, lead designer, Haylee' Dodd, is especially knowledgeable when it comes to interior design trends and is well-versed in understanding the impact that a few minor changes can have on the aesthetic of a space. See what she has to say about what 2023 interior design trends will dominate new home construction in Auburn, AL by reading on.

Introducing the 2023 Color of the Year

Because the interior and exteriors of our new home construction homes in Auburn, AL are painted in popular Sherwin Williams hues, it's vital for us to stay up to date on the most recent paint trends. The Sherwin Williams Color of the Year for 2023 is Redend Point, a trend in interior design that has been gaining popularity over the past few years. Maybe you'll see it this year when we build some new homes in Auburn!

"I believed the color of the year was going to be a rich, warm color within the earth tone family. The Sherwin Williams Color of 2023 fits perfectly into the earthy tones with a touch of warmth."

How to Incorporate the 2023 Color of the Year in Your Home

Redend Point will look fantastic whether you're constructing a brand-new home in Auburn, AL or remodeling an existing one. While 2022 was all about calming color schemes, plush, all-encompassing furnishings, and an overall atmosphere of comfort and tranquility, 2023 will usher in bold, expressive individualism.

"Something great about this color is how versatile it can be while staying neutral. Going big and bold, this color can be used on cabinetry, accent walls, and furniture. Alternatively, take a softer approach and use this color as the finishing touches of a new home's décor, such as bookends on a bookshelf."

2023 Furniture Trends

Trends circulate and ultimately return to popularity, and this is true for 2023. Influences from the 1960s and 1970s are reappearing, especially in furniture design. The good news is that if you enjoy curved items, love a good pop of color, and adore all things cozy, you're in luck! Curved furniture offers a great way to bring comfort into a room, making it easier to have conversations, and creating an inviting atmosphere.

"The beauty of furniture, especially this year, is being able to mix and match styles and not having to pick just one. A few things that I truly see becoming staples for the year are curved furnishings, eye-catching statement pieces, and adding in secondhand furniture."

Incorporating Popular Textures and Patterns into Your New Home

A fun way that we like to incorporate textures and patterns into new home construction in Auburn, AL is with a feature wall. Feature walls, such as wallpaper or a unique wood design, can provide an interesting backdrop to any room and really bring texture into your home. Additionally, incorporating different fabrics and textures in furniture and accessories is a great way to bring more life to a room. See what Haylee' has to say about textures and patterns.

"Natural wood and stone are popular and on the rise, adding a lot of texture to a home, but we will still see patterns of stripes make a comeback in a variety of ways, as well as bold colors."

Last but not least, Haylee was asked to give some guidance on house design for 2023 Harris Doyle homebuyers. She said the following. "Have fun with your new home's décor and design! The ability to personalize a place and make it genuinely yours is the nicest aspect of owning a house. Make it feel comfortable." We really hope that you enjoyed and learned from this interview. Harris Doyle Homes is looking forward to seeing each of these interior design trends come to life in our new construction homes in Auburn, AL during 2023!
