Discover the Top 10 interior design and decoration trends of 2020, covering colors, furniture, textures, materials, styles, and ideas to perfect your living space.
1. Vertical Gardens
Interior trend carried over from last year to this year
Natural green has been a major design trend since 2019. Now, it has evolved with a new look into Vertical Gardens – hanging vertical greenery systems.
Applications
Indoor vertical garden designs are treated as decorative features that bring a relaxing and tranquil atmosphere. You can pair them with wooden textures, mirrors, or other materials that offer striking contrast.
Limitless creative spaces
Vertical gardens can be incorporated into living rooms, dining rooms, or even bathrooms. In particular, you can also substitute living plants with pattern-mimicking wall tiles such as shamrock encaustic tiles, big slab wall tiles, and more.

2. Black is a new neutral
A color palette that has been widely loved in recent years, and 2020 is no exception. Black brings drama and strength to a contemporary space that no other color can replace.
Applications
From wardrobes and kitchen cabinets to sinks, wall paint, countertops, and tiling tiles, pure black will be one of the “Top Trends” of 2020.
Black & White Contrast
However, not everyone dares to apply dark colors throughout their interior space. Therefore, you can balance it by using high-contrast color pairs like black and white—a duo that also promises to be a favorite in 2020.
3. Humble materials & craftsmanship
What are traditional materials?
Time-honored materials such as rattan, jute, bamboo, terracotta, etc., will be used more than ever in 2020 with a fresh, contemporary twist.
Applied across interior items such as: area rugs, lamps, chairs, vases, baskets, plant pots, or other accessories.
Wabi-sabi Design Principles
This is a design principle rooted in Japanese philosophy, integrated into Japanese culture for centuries. Representing the search for beauty in imperfection, Wabi-sabi and the use of natural materials remain continuously embraced to add warmth to any space.
4. 3D Wall coverings
3D wall tiles will no longer be limited to bathrooms; in 2020, this tiling trend will expand to other areas throughout the home.
