Interior Design Trends That Will Elevate Your Home in 2024

The interior design trends of 2024 are shifting towards creating spaces that are both stylish and inviting. This year, there’s been a resurgence of nature-influenced tones, luxurious textures, and innovative design elements that transform any home into a haven of comfort and elegance. By incorporating carefully considered features like a soothing colour palette, relaxing yet refined pieces of furniture, calming curves, and unexpected texture pairings, you can transform your interior into a modern sanctuary that reflects the best of contemporary design. 

Our latest Mater Prize Home lottery No. 314 features a stylish curation of top interior design trends that add luxury to your house while still ensuring a cosy and comfortable feel of home sweet home. 

Here are some of the top trends for 2024 for making your home a true reflection of your personal style and a place where you can unwind and thrive.

Go green

Olive tones are making a strong comeback in 2024, adding a touch of nature-inspired tranquillity and sophistication to interiors. This versatile colour can be seamlessly integrated into various parts of your home. For instance, an olive green corduroy couch like the one in our Mater Prize Home can serve as a focal point in the living room, creating a cosy yet stylish ambiance as you warm up in front of the fireplace. Outdoor spaces naturally lend themselves to this trend: our prize home pays homage to the surrounding hinterland with subtle pops of the colour through the olive-toned stools at the breakfast bar and matching outdoor dining chairs on the upstairs deck. Bring the outside in with olive accents through your choice of cushions, landscape-inspired artwork, and throw blankets—even olive-inspired towels and bed linen work to deliver subtle yet impactful touches of earthy elegance throughout the home. 

Cosy up with corduroy 

Corduroy is back in vogue, bringing texture and a sense of retro charm to modern interiors. A statement plush green corduroy couch can instantly elevate any space, providing both comfort and style (you’ll find one in this prize home’s main living area and the games room, proving this versatile fabric ticks the box for both formal and fun occasions). Corduroy dining chairs in a rich shade of olive green alongside fresh white corduroy accent chairs offer a unique seating option that injects character alongside a contemporary black and wood dining table. These pieces not only contribute to the overall aesthetic but also offer a tactile experience that enhances the comfort of your home.

Embrace curves

Curves continue to dominate interior design in 2024, offering a softer, more organic feel compared to the straight lines of previous trends. Incorporating curves into your home design can create a more inviting and elegant atmosphere. A curved kitchen island, for example, not only enhances the visual appeal but also adds functionality with its smooth, flowing design. Curved edges on entryway furniture, such as our prize home’s floating cabinet, create a welcoming first impression. In more intimate spaces, curved pull handles and countertops like the ones found in this home’s wet bar add a sophisticated touch, blending seamlessly with the overall aesthetic of the house. While curves add a softness to harsh edges, they can also be used to draw attention. Make a statement with striking arch windows throughout the home (bonus: they let even more sunlight pour into the interior!).

Open up

Open shelving continues to be a popular design feature in homes, offering both practicality and aesthetic appeal. Open shelving not only maximises storage but also allows you to showcase your personal style through the items you choose to display. In a large open-plan kitchen, open shelves on either side of an oversized window can provide a beautiful display space for decor and essentials, while also allowing for a view of the lush green treetops outside. This trend extends into the butler’s pantry, where open shelves keep everything easily found and within reach, maintaining a clean and organised look. 

Mix and match

Combining different textures is a key trend this year, creating depth and interest. A living room can be transformed with a mix of cosy corduroy and elegant boucle alongside a glass coffee table with a teak root base and an industrial-esque hammered metal side table. In the kitchen, our Mater Prize Home breaks away from the classic all-white look by adding layers of visual and tactile interest with its combination of a white ribbed island bench paired with a stone benchtop counter, wood cabinet handles and open shelves, and a bonus island bench. These varied textures work together to create a rich, multifaceted environment that feels both luxurious and comfortable, while giving the home unique character you won’t find anywhere else.
