CREAMY NEUTRALS… IS GRAY PASSE?<\/span><\/h1>\n

I am hoping that some design professionals might comment on this.\u00a0 I’ve heard from a few designers that Gray is going away….at least as far as being the main event in a space.\u00a0 I am told that in New York and L.A., creamy neutrals, taupes, and bones are “THE THING” and I also noticed that there were very few of the cliche all gray and white colorscapes in the recent ASID design awards.\u00a0 I understand that Grays will be incorporated as more of a minor accent role to layer with neutrals.\u00a0 I love the whole gray carrerra marble\/white cabinet trend but those who have used this throughout their entire house may end up regretting it.<\/p>\n

WHITE OUT<\/h1>\n

According to the most recent edition of Remodeling magazine, “Homeowners are ready to ditch all-white kitchens”.\u00a0\u00a0<\/a>\u00a0 \u00a0 \u00a0Darker cabinets (even black) are making a comeback and they are being used on their own as well as being mixed in with lighter cabinetry (see photo above, as well).<\/p>\n

CONCRETE<\/h1>\n

This is one of the biggest interior design trends of 2018.\u00a0 Whether it’s a concrete floor, countertop or a faux concrete look on the wall, concrete’s neutral color is organic, earthy, durable and low maintenance. Geometric concrete tiles are going to be a thing, too.\u00a0\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n

VINTAGE: Especially Lighting Fixtures & Bucket or Trough Sinks.<\/h1>\n

Think farm sinks and nostalgia.\u00a0 I LOVE Kohler’s new Farmstead cast iron vintage farm sink<\/a>\u00a0!\u00a0 We have some client’s looking at this one and I would love to see it in their kitchen!\u00a0 Note the matte black faucet (matte black is another current interior design trend).<\/p>\n

REDS, PINKS BOLD YELLOWS & TEAL<\/h1>\n

I’ve seen yellow being used on a large scale and I love yellow because it exudes happiness and confidence. Be careful, though. In too great a quantity,\u00a0 yellow can create anxiety, but in small pops, it is powerful.<\/p>\n
