Overview of Interior Design Home Trends

Every now and then we could all use a bit of a change, especially when it comes to the design of your home. Whether you’re tired of looking at the same old design scheme or simply like to follow what’s popular and new, keeping up with the latest design trends can help you figure out just how to update your home. We asked our designers for their take on what’s trending in 2020.

Exposed Beams

When looking at interior design home trends, exposed beams are always a striking addition to any home. Our interior designers believe that exposing the structural elements of a home creates a compelling natural contrast to any interior space. Exposed beams are often seen within large living spaces that are placed on a vaulted ceiling. Many people believe that exposed beams are only meant for a rustic interior. However, our interior designers can feature exposed beams in virtually any style of space.

Bold Backsplash Designs

One of the top interior design home trends in 2020 is making your kitchen and bathrooms stand out with bold backsplashes. One of the best ways to create a trendy design is to fill the interior of your home with eye-catching details using creative tiles and colors. Our interior designers have endless options to best fit your home.

Arched Walkways

In the interior design world, the “arch” never goes out of style. Whether it’s the entrance to a luxury kitchen or a clean edged passageway, implementing an arch will elevate the aesthetic to any interior design. If you don’t already have arches in your home, don’t worry. Our designers have recreated the arched look by adding arched mirrors and furniture to the home.

2020 is the start of a brand-new decade and we are prepared to see plenty of changes in interior design home trends. This year we are expecting some unique, eye catching design trends that will look great in your home.

When most people think about interior design, they imagine furniture, finishes, and final styling. In reality, the most successful luxury interiors are shaped long before any of those decisions are made. For custom homes and high-end renovations, interior design should begin at the architectural planning stage , not after construction documents are complete. When interior designers are involved early, they help shape the very framework of how a home functions, feels, and lives for decades to come.  This early collaboration is one of the most overlooked advantages in luxury home design, and one that discerning homeowners increasingly prioritize.

Luxury interior design in 2026 is no longer defined by excess, trend saturation, or price alone. Today’s most discerning homeowners are seeking something far more refined: intentional design, expert execution, and spaces that feel deeply personal while remaining timeless. As expectations rise, the definition of true luxury has evolved into a balance of craftsmanship, lifestyle alignment, and thoughtful restraint.  Understanding what genuinely defines luxury interior design is essential for homeowners building or renovating custom homes, especially those investing at a high level. In 2026, luxury is not about what is added, but about what is curated, refined, and designed with purpose.
