Wall covering: the basis of wall decoration in 2024
We saw the trend coming and in 2024, it is only confirmed: from now on, we take care in the choice of wall covering.
The simplest option is to focus on paint, adopting one of the essential colors in decoration this year. Burnt orange, terracotta red or pastel yellow for fans of warm colors, midnight blue, aquamarine blue, khaki green or celadon green for the “cold colors” team. And for a sober interior? We love subtle shades of white or nudes.
To bring more personality to a wall, we opt for the combination of moldings or battens and color.
Already very popular in 2023, panoramic wallpaper is one of the essentials in 2024. To enhance it, do not hesitate to combine it with traditional wallpaper.
When it comes to traditional wallpaper, graphic patterns are all the rage: lines, tartan or gingham prints are among the trendy models for 2024.
A key trendy material in 2024, wood also adorns walls. And it’s the marquetry and the 3D effect that are a hit.
Whether you opt for paint, coating or wallpaper, dare the textured effect, top trend this year.
Gone are the days when tiles only covered the walls of the kitchen or bathroom! This year, it is also making its way into living rooms. Big 2024 trend in interior tiling, terrazzo enhances the retro interior which is inspired by the early 80s.
Classics reinvented
Mirrors, hangings and frames remain basics that are impossible to do without to create a harmonious wall decoration. Unsurprisingly, they are still very present in 2024.
The decorative year 2024 sees the minimalist trend continue. And among the wall decorations that will enhance refined spaces, you will have to take into account abstract designs, which come in particular in very modern nude colors.
In the minimalist interior version 2024, we also find monochrome or two-tone canvases – a sober way to introduce color into the decor.
If the minimalist has not said its last word, maximalism takes its revenge. The frame wall is an opportunity to display antique pieces and artisanal creations.
In 2024, decor no longer takes itself seriously, and this is particularly evident in the choice of posters, canvases and posters that adorn the walls. So we have fun combining colorful walls and peppy prints!
Natural fibers remain in the spotlight in 2024, particularly in the area of wall decoration. And on the design side, there’s something new! For example, we love the carpet-like plant fiber hangings.
The other piece that looks set to be top trendy are frames made from raw or dyed plant fibers.
Paper has been competing with plant fibers for several seasons. This year, the match is also played on our walls. The piece to have at all costs in your home is paper wall decoration (preferably recycled!). We favor embossed paper creations, which benefit from a top 3D effect to give relief to the decoration.
To brighten up our interiors or enlarge a small room, we always rely on mirrors. Round mirror and organic mirror remain trendy in 2024.
The mirror is also one of the pieces that is being renewed, and we are seeing atypical pieces appear, with sharper lines.
In 2024, we’re focusing on fantasy to spruce up the decor! On the walls, we dare to display original, even downright unexpected, pieces. If traditional neon decor is losing ground, we opt for an alternative: the canvas and neon combo.
Golden brass or chrome: don’t forget the metal parts to add a precious touch to the decor.
Wood art
In line with the hashtag #woodart which emerged on social networks, the wooden wall decorations appear refined and carefully worked.
On the furniture side, wood is enhanced with luxurious materials, starting with leather. The two-material look is found on our walls, particularly with the combination of wood and cotton.
The organic trend does not spare furniture. A trend that blurs the lines, since hanging furniture is transformed into real wall decorations.
This year, the carved wooden wall panel is no longer confined to ethnic chic interiors: it comes in an ultra-contemporary version, and is suitable for both a Scandi decor and a neo-vintage interior.
