The most important interior trends of 2026

Published on: 9/12/2025 Author: Demi

The new year is just around the corner, which means we’ll be seeing fresh home trends in 2026. What interior trends can we expect? Here’s a little preview: colour is definitely here to stay. The same goes for organic shapes and natural materials. In short, 2026 is all about vibrancy, softness, and personality. Below, we’ve outlined the top interior trends for 2026.

Interior trend 1: Cloud Dancer

The color of 2026, according to Pantone, is Cloud Dancer. This color represents the creation of a calm and spacious atmosphere. Think of soft fabrics, rounded shapes, and bathrooms that radiate a sense of wellness. Perfectly matching our white washing machine cabinets, it looks minimal yet feels comfortable. By consciously choosing quality materials, you prevent the space from feeling too businesslike. This approach gives you peace and focus, a fresh start in your own home.

Interior trend 2: curved shapes

When we talk about adding softness to the interior, curved shapes naturally come into play. Rounded forms simply feel more natural and inviting than sharp, clean lines. These curves appear in furniture such as tables, think of oval dining tables and round side tables, which we’ve also seen a lot of over the past year. You’ll also find them in sofas with rounded edges. Large, round rugs have become essential in the living room as well. They bring character and warmth to a space, exactly what this interior trend is all about.

This trend also extends into the bedroom. In 2026, we’ll see it reflected in both the bed and the headboard. The shapes that were popular in sofas are now making their way into upholstered bed frames as well.

Interior trend 3: colour everywhere

Lately, we’re seeing more and more colour make its way into interiors. This includes various prints, but combining colours is becoming increasingly popular as well. It’s no wonder that the 2026 interior trends are all about expressing more personality. Did you inherit a bold vase from a family member? It can definitely complement that colourful chair. Old and new pieces can be combined seamlessly.

Chairs can certainly have colour, which adds vibrancy to your home. We’re also seeing swivel and recliner chairs make a strong comeback in 2026. Not only will chairs feature a variety of colours, but tables, sofas, and other accessories are expected to make a statement as well. Think of a mauve sofa, a mint-green coffee table, orange chairs, or even a dark green washing machine cabinet. Have you seen wallpaper with a print? That works too. You can bring this trend into your laundry room as well, turning what might otherwise be a dull space into something fun and lively.

Interior trend 4: adding tiles

We are all familiar with using tiles in the kitchen. While recent years focused on sleek finishes and the popularity of the Japandi trend, tiles are now making a strong comeback, even as DIY projects. Bold grout lines and striking contrasts bring character to the kitchen. You can place tiles above your countertop, and it’s not necessary to cover the entire wall. The focus now is not on the design of the tile itself, but on how you combine them.

This trend can also be applied in your laundry room, for example, above the countertop, adding both style and personality to the space.

Interior trend 5: bold, natural materials

Natural materials and colours have been making a comeback in interiors for some time now. In 2026, they remain indispensable, but in a sturdier, more robust form. While in 2025 we saw a lot of wood tones combined with marble, in 2026 this trend is characterized by larger and more pronounced textures. Your interior should clearly show that it’s a lived-in space.

Regarding natural colours, green is set to make an even bigger impact in 2026. Being surrounded by natural hues makes us feel more relaxed and helps us fully unwind.

The increased use of natural materials also brings sustainability to the forefront in 2026. Even paint choices are now focused on sustainability, being completely free of volatile organic compounds. Moreover, this approach is better for our health.

Interior trend 6: imperfection

Our final interior trend for 2026, but certainly not the least, is imperfection. This trend ties in perfectly with the second trend. Nowadays, it’s no longer about strict precision. A more relaxed interior with playful elements instantly adds character to a home. We’re also seeing the use of irregular shapes and forms in interiors. Everything can be a bit more playful, think of distorted mirrors, hand-painted tableware, candles, or ceramics you’ve made yourself. It doesn’t have to be perfect.
