My Top 3 Home Decor Trends for 2020!

Published on April 29, 2020

Ok, so strictly speaking, these have been around for a bit longer than 2020 but they have been showing up more and more in the Instagram accounts I love to follow for home decor inspiration and also on Pinterest (Do you follow me yet?). I thought it would be fun to review my top 3 home decor trends for 2020!

My Top 3 Home Decor Trends for 2020! // So Fresh and So Chic

1. Modern Minimalist Moulding

This is obviously a very classic and timeless look that has been around for absolutely ages.

What I find fresh and new about moulding these days can be summed up in three points:

  • One: They’re not heavily decorative or embellished.
  • Two: You rarely see just a single chair rail/wainscot situation running around a room. Instead, we’re talking large floor to ceiling panels.
  • Three: This is the most important difference in my opinion, they’re always simple and clean, and this look is enhanced because they’re painted in the same colour as the wall vs. a contrasting white.

Sometimes they’re whimsical with cut out corners, sometime they’re layered cleanly. They’re popping up in every room from bathrooms to bedrooms like the one dose magic pill that can transform plain walls into an elevated and sophisticated room. Here are a few rooms I love that show off modern minimalist moulding!

2. Vintage Paintings in Kitchens and Dining Rooms

My Instagram feed is literally full of amazing interior design accounts and almost all of them feature vintage paintings in primarily kitchens and dining rooms. Leaning against polished backsplash tiles or hung on walls- I can’t tell you how much I love them! You know a trend is here to stay when Studio McGee includes a couple in their collaboration with Target! I own one of their pieces and added it to our living room gallery wall, as seen below. For just $17 it was a steal I couldn’t resist!

3. Indoor Olive Trees

Being the proud owner of not one, but two, fiddle leaf figs I can’t quite believe I’m saying this but it seems the eponymous fig has finally met it’s match in the delicate, more artistic branches and leaves of the olive tree.

A close runner up that does well in less light is the weeping fig. I can say this from experience because we have a weeping fig in our living room (seen below). Although they’re related to fiddle leaf figs, I find they are hardier and easier to grow and less fussy about water and light. I know our living room looks very bright but in truth, as a west facing room with high ceilings but not as high windows, we don’t often get the kind of all around bright light that olive trees prefer.

A corner of our living room with our beautiful weeping fig! Not quite as pretty as the olive tree but easier to grow indoors than a fiddle leaf fig!

LATELY… // Same room, same time, different light LATELY… // Same room, same time, different lighting, display shelf, crooked art, book stacks, way too many throw pillows but at least they all coordinate haha. It’s a bit of a mash happening here at the moment but with family visiting in a couple months and some big life changes coming next year inshallah, I’m leaving this room as it is. It’s where we all gather and there’s a lot to be said for the comfort of status quo. #sofreshmyhome
