2022 is almost here—and that means it’s time to start planning ahead when it comes to what will be trending in the new year. Undoubtedly, 2021 transformed our daily life and the way we inhabit our houses, which went from being the roof where we sleep, to the space where we work, live with the family, exercise, and even the place where we connect with ourselves. So today more than ever, we see the need to configure a balanced and harmonious space where we can feel good.
Among the favorite materials many Interior Designers will be looking to in 2022, are inked woods, marbles, terraces, highly veined granites and grained textures that add tactility to flat surfaces, in combination with risky colors in floors, walls and ceilings.
Along those lines, large-format wall tiles are a must for 2022. With the new technologies and innovations of recent years, it has been possible to transfer the beauty of natural stone to materials that facilitate installation on walls, floors, furniture and cladding, creating elegant and tasteful spaces.
Eilyn Jimenez, the founder and creative director of Sire Design sees “bold, heavy marbles making their way into the design world and staying for a very long time. Rough, rugged, and fresh slabs will be introduced heavily into interior design—and you can never go wrong with too much marble.”
So we will see a lot of marble and similar finishes in wall panels, dining tables, details in bathrooms and other spaces in the house, designed with materials in which the homogeneity of its dark background can be appreciated, with its characteristic white veins, providing elegance, sobriety and a touch of mystery to the spaces.
