I would like the Bisque color return to appliances. I do not like white, stainless steel is hard to keep clean and black shows everything. The bisque was soft and easy to keep clean.
Other than that I like the Tuscan look, with the golds, wine and green colors.
Hi Amy, at long last! Someone who will listen lol! 🤣 I would like to see carpet come back in style for living room hallways and bedrooms, sooo tired of getting cold feet when visiting relatives with no carpet. I also prefer linoleum to hardwood o laminate as it is waterproof when pets or anyone dribbles water, it comes i styles that look like laminate and hardwood, but is much easier to keep clean, and again, does not let the spills to leak through to subfloor causing warping. I also love ceiling fans, can't imagine trying to live without them. Thank you for letting me get that off my chest! ☺️
I'm a huge MCM fan. It's somewhat still in style but I love the lines. I have 2 end tables that don't match in my den that were my parents' when they first got married in 1959. They were in our home or at the lake my whole life so when they passed away, it was one of the few items I specifically requested.
Something along beachy lines, a cool blue that is pale and not gaudy. No carpet either! Stone tile is so easy to keep clean.
I also am an MCM fan. The style is timeless. The Prairie style melded the ideals of the Arts and Crafts movement with its emphasis on nature, craftsmanship and simplicity. Frank Lloyd Wright and Louis Sullivan. I feel MCM style furnishings would be a perfect fit.
I’ve always loved William Morris designs and I’m thrilled they are finally going to be trendy again!
Hi Amy: I like the Mediterranean look, and the comfy look of the 50's :)
American Glamour! English Historical House, Minimalisim is fine but lacks welcoming comfort in my eyes. No sense of depth and permanense only temp. chic! Well you did ask! I rather prefer Maximalisim..Generousity..
Mid century modern, it's a classic
There's something so vibrant and cheerful about those colorful designs. They add so much character and energy to a space.
In case you're still hunting for this info, I have a suggestion. You can check out some articles about interior design trends for more inspiration. They often feature retro styles making a modern return, which can give you some great ideas.
I also have a soft spot for mid-century modern's sleek lines and minimalist approach. It's timeless and fits well with today's design aesthetics. What about you? Which trend would you bring back?
MCM is wonderful and so functional and would be my go-to!
Hollywood Glamour!
English Period Home Look!
I’d love to see Art Nouveau make a comeback but short of that, I’ll take mid-century modern sleek lines and 70’s all day long.
Kim |Exquisitely Unremarkable Hi I agree with you 100%. I really would love to know why they did away with Bisque. We need to get appliance people to listen.
