After a long winter, spring has finally sprung, and along with the warmer weather comes new ideas and trends to decorate our homes. From fresh new colors to pedestals and pendant lamps, there is something new for every house style. Spectrum Stone Designs, Central Virginia’s leading natural stone fabricator, curates five spring design trends to make your home shine this spring:
- Combine Quiet and Calm Colors: This spring is all about relaxing. Pantone, the world-renowned authority on color, selected a combination rose quartz and serenity as the color of the year for 2016, citing the balance between warm and cool tones. Other relaxing shades to create a peaceful home include ivory, eggshell and bone.
- Mix up the Metals: 2016 is all about warm metals. Try rose gold, brass and gold to create a modern look in your design. Appliances are even getting in on the act, with black stainless steel appliances making an appearance from major brands like KitchenAid, LG and Samsung.
- Try New Accessories: From pedestal stands to statement pendant lamps, a variety of manufacturers offer unique and eye catching accessories to create focal points in the home. Large mirrors and oversized art pieces are other ways to freshen up your spring decor.
- Go Geometric: Triangles, squares, pentagons and hexagons are just a few of the geometric shapes covering walls and fabrics. For a different take on the geometric shape trends, try a triangular table or a lamp with a hexagon base.
- Kitchen Islands That Do It All: Islands take center stage in many home kitchens and the modern island does more than just offer a place to prep food. Today’s kitchen islands offer added storage, sinks and plugs for charging all those electronic devices. Thinking of adding a new island to your kitchen? Check out some of the islands Spectrum Stone Designs has created for previous customers.
