Interior Design: What’s New & Next in Fabrics and Finishes

After attending several fall 2016 interior design markets I wanted to share a few examples of what’s new and next in fabrics, patterns, and finishes. The biggest trend I’m seeing? Personalization!

But bold colors, organic natural looks, antique reproductions and patterns that allude to the 1970s or 1980s are still growing in popularity too.

These fun finishes I discovered can be used as tops for furniture.

Ralph Lauren fabrics

And I had to share these luscious classic Ralph Lauren fabrics that have been introduced in their fall collection.

Also loved this fabulous linen stripe from Italy by Schumacher. Perfect for a beach house or for that type of design style.
