Finally, PPG has named Black Flame as their 2018 color of the year. They call it a “statement making black with deep tones of indigo”. This is certainly a bold choice, especially with colors of the year in the recent past being among the lighter family. We picture this color making a beautiful front door or even a living room or office for those bold enough to try it!

Iridescent Pieces

With the holidays coming to an end and 2018 just around the corner, it has us thinking about home decor trends for next year. One of the trends that is on its way back in is to add in iridescent touches to your space. These photos show examples of iridescent backsplashes. The interesting thing about this is depending on the light in your space the colors can change drastically. Its important that these touches remain subtle because it can quickly become over the top, but when done in a subtle way can look so chic and purposeful.

Brass

Brass is another trend for 2018 that has come back in recent years and doesn't appear to be going away anytime soon. A lot of us associate brass with being outdated while in reality when done in an intentional way can look so updated and fresh. Examples of how brass can be used in an updated manor include light fixtures, end tables, accessories, hardware, the list goes on and on. Antique brass is another gorgeous finish that will continue to be on trend into 2018.

Brown is Back

Gray has ruled the world of interiors in recent years so its hard for some to wrap their minds around the fact that browns, beiges, and taupes are on their way back in a big way! We are so excited about this shift back toward browns because it is such a warm rich tone that brings instant coziness wherever you use it. Look out for these tones in 2018!
