THE DESIGN TRENDS THAT WILL BE IN AND OUT IN 2019 part 2

Here's what trends will be big on the home front next year—and which ones have overstayed their welcome.
OCT 5, 2018

1. OUT: OVERDONE BRASS
"I love brass metal details, but it’s overkill when a room is furnished with brass-accented case goods and upholstery pieces. For example, if the chairs have a brass frame, the sofa has a brass base, the dining table has brass pedestals, and the credenza has brass sabots and pulls, well then, that’s just too much." — Keita Turner of Keita Turner Design
2. IN: BOLD BLACK BATHROOMS
"The spa-inspired bathroom trend has officially returned–back to the spa, that is. These days it's all about bold, dark, sultry bathroom designs that evoke an indulgent high-end experience." — Kesha Franklin of Halden Interiors
3. OUT: ACCENT WALLS
"Dramatic-colored or wallpapered accent walls are no longer the focal point of interiors. Single-colored walls are making a much bigger impact by creating a balanced backdrop for furnishings and decor." — Kesha Franklin of Halden Interiors
4. IN: LIGHT WOOD FLOORS
"Light-colored floors are making a comeback, thanks to the homeowner's growing desire for a more airy and open look and feel. In shades of birch, beachy white and light oak, these floors reflect more light, and can transition from casual to luxurious, without sacrificing comfort."— Kesha Franklin of Halden Interiors
5. OUT: CHERRY CABINETS
"Warmth in the kitchen is no longer achieved with this traditional go-to finish. Painted cabinets in deep blues, grays and black are dominating both modern and traditional kitchen designs." — Kesha Franklin of Halden Interiors
6. IN: NOT SKIMPING ON COMFORT
"From soft carpets underfoot to a sofa so comfortable you want to lounge for hours. Spending the money to get these basic things right are very important and are incredibly gratifying. I always look my clients in the eye and tell them, 'Buy once, cry once'." — Randy Powers of J Randall Powers Interiors
7. OUT: LACQUERED FURNITURE
"Shiny doesn’t always equate to pretty. A little sparkle in a room is always visually pleasing, but an overly polished piece can become trite very quickly." — Randy Powers of J Randall Powers Interiors
8. IN: PASSAMENTERIE
"Passamenterie will begin making a big return to the market 
place in 2019. The "less is more" trend has been enjoyed for a long time, but now, modern interpretations of trims, bullion fringe and tie-backs will be in. Vibrant color combinations and unusual shapes will make passamenterie 'hip' again." — Corey Damen Jenkins of Corey Damen Jenkins & Associates
9. OUT: ROSE GOLD
"Rose gold has overstayed its welcome and I think it'll be 
all but gone by 2019. It's such a specific look and doesn't integrate as seamlessly as polished nickel or antique brass." — Corey Damen Jenkins of Corey Damen Jenkins & Associates
10. IN: WARMER & DARKER COUNTERTOPS
"Warmer and/or darker countertops in kitchens. Marble will still be a classic choice, but we'll see more darker tones and warmer-based stones instead of stark whites and greys." — Erin Gates of Erin Gates Design
11. OUT: QUARTZ COUNTERTOPS
"Solid white quartz counters. This look is too stark and commercial, especially with white cabinetry." — Erin Gates of Erin Gates Design
12. IN: BOLD WALLS
"At Clare, our customers are getting a lot more adventurous when it comes to color. Current Mood, which is a dramatic, moody deep green is one of our top five bestsellers and I love seeing people incorporating bolder color choices in their home." — Nicole Gibbons of Clare
13. OUT: MID-CENTURY EVERYTHING
"I love the look of mid-century furniture, but when I see a space outfitted entirely in this one look, it can sometimes feel like it’s in a time capsule. I’m a passionate advocate of mixing up your decor styles. It makes a space look so much more interesting and layered." — Nicole Gibbons of Clare
14. IN: 90% WHITE, 10% COLOR
"There was a moment while I was watching the Spring/Summer Louis Vuitton show by Virgil Abloh that I though...'THIS is it!' I was inspired by how the collection was built on a foundation of white, but gently unfolded to embrace confident hues with bracing edge. The look was fresh, bold, and youthful. For recent project, I created a bedroom for a young lady that incorporated this trend. Tempered by neutral layers and tons of texture, it's a design that reflects this "of the moment" color recipe while staying true to the personality of the client." - Jon Call of Mr. Call Designs
15. OUT: SUCCULENTS
Succulent plants were a HUGE trend in 2018. The look of plants in a home can be elevated and earthy, but there are so many other beautiful and timeless options to choose from. "They were charming. Now they are not." - Jon Call of Mr. Call Designs
