Camden’s Artistic meets Eclectic

Inspired by Camden, one of the most representative neighborhoods in London, this style is characterized by the mix of textures, colors and neutral elements that allow iconic elements to stand out in the furniture and / or the art that is integrated into the space. A touch of the 70s and 80s and its stridency completes the bet on this eclectic proposal with a marked vintage character.

Spanish Industrial

Pobleneu, is the Barcelona neighborhood that inspires this trend, which combines the best of the Spanish industrial revolution with the modern warmth of the typical lofts. The base is made up of gray, but this time, closer to the color of cement. In this trend, the details are even more important, since adding handmade elements, a diversity of textures mainly fabrics or fibers as well as vegetation that give it the right touch that prevents it from becoming a boring or monochrome space without soul.

Seaport Style

This trend is inspired by Seaport, a neighborhood in southeastern Manhattan. The base of this style will be made up of a great combination of woods, contrasted with blue and ocher colors. Exposed brick walls, minimalist furniture, mirrors and elements worn by time complete this trend. Metal elements or gray colors will create the visual balance necessary to avoid saturation.

New Nolita

This style is perfect for new homes, where white walls predominate and serve as a canvas to create. Inspired by Nolita, a Manhattan neighborhood that blends aspects of Little Italy’s Italian tradition with SoHo hipster flair. In this New York trend, light and neutral colors predominate, where lighting will be a crucial factor to give it a touch of originality. The light bathrooms, shiny woods, metallic details and a combination of porous textures such as natural stone will be the main protagonists.

Corktown Old School

In this style, the elegance of wood and the worn tones typical of the industrial style, such as bricks and oxidized materials, are mixed. Inspired by the Corktown neighborhood in Detroit, this old style allows you to create modern and sober environments. The metallic tones will be a great complement to the base materials, as well as green tones that can arise with the decoration with plants.

The Bottom Line: Your Interior Design Style Should Reflect You

Whatever your taste, remember that the important thing in interior design is that it adapts to your lifestyle and that it reflects your personality, especially in a context in which our house has become so elementary in our life and in which we prioritize the versatility and flexibility of the spaces.
