Top Trends for 2012

Modern Home Magazine’s Associate Editor, Selina Gordevich, shares her insights on the top trends in home design for 2012.

“This year is all about black. As interior designers and decorators celebrate styles like Hollywood Regency, it’s collections by Versace Home and Kelly Hoppen that are truly reflecting the black trend in home design.

Using white as a neutral base, black is taking the lead in accents and is working its way into everything from sofas to cabinetry, tap ware to lighting. While vivid shades like turquoise, denim blue, sun yellow, apple green and chromatic pink being used to complement the dark hue.

The Hollywood Regency trend combines a mix of French and Greek design combined with Modernist touches. This exciting design trend was popular in the homes of movie royalty during the golden age of Hollywood.



Another style that continues to be popular, particularly in Australia, is Coastal Chic– think lots of white with soft accents of baby blue and creamy yellow.”

If you’re brave enough choose Luxaflex Duette Shades or Roller Blinds in a black or charcoal colour. Otherwise, keep it neutral with whites and creams and pick up the trend in other home accessories. Coastal Chic is perfectly complemented by the timeless look of Luxaflex Newstyle Polyresin Shutters available in Vanilla, Pearl or White.
