Novelties in the interior design of apartments in 2017 - global trends and a change in vectors in apartment design

What will be fashionable in the next 12 months, what materials, color palette, decor? The key points of interior novelties in 2017 in our material.

The main ideas of the novelties of the interior 2017: peace and movement

World-famous designers predict

• increased attention to minimalism,
• another round of the movement for simplicity,
• as well as rethinking at the interior level the relationship between man and nature.

The main motive that emerged at specialized exhibitions is well-being. When virtual communication dominates and the Internet dominates, it is important to turn the house into a calm and safe haven.

The task of the interior designer is to create here a friendly family space in which to relax, socialize and eat in a relaxed, slightly rustic atmosphere.

Warm thick textiles (wool, etc.) will harmoniously look in the design, wood will be made of materials, and a neutral-balanced color scheme is preferable.

Space - clear boundaries instead of open areas

A novelty in the layout of the apartment design in 2017 is a return to the past. According to interior designers, in the new year it is worth focusing on creating a more private environment that people miss. A clear delineation of rooms is back in fashion.

In addition to the psychological aspect, an open floor plan is associated with the problems of noise and odors that are freely distributed throughout the house. To get away from the concept of big open space, you need to arrange the premises around one - the central one.

Escape from reality - the bedroom is just for relaxing?

The active development of technology encourages people to look for places where they can be in silence. During the day, we spend so much time in front of a computer or on a tablet that there is a great desire to create a secluded corner at home without informational stimuli.

This does not mean at all that you need to get rid of technology in your home interior. But it is important to allocate a place of rest. Let it be a bedroom or a library. It is necessary to fill it with materials that are pleasant to the touch and upholstered furniture: a cozy sofa with linen upholstery, a warm knitted blanket, pillows on the floor, sheepskin. Tactile sensations will help to relax.

City apartments with a small area

Reducing the area of ​​​​residential premises is a trend in modern Europe and Asia. In Russia, especially in metropolitan areas, a significant proportion of new buildings are also occupied by apartments of 20-30 square meters.

World designers were puzzled how to create a comfortable environment in such a cramped volume.

Here are some example solutions.

• Design of a small apartment in Taipei with an area of ​​22 sq. meters demonstrates how minimalism can successfully combine functionality and convenience. The sleeping place is placed on the second level, the space under it is occupied by the kitchen area and the bathroom. A workplace and a storage system are organized along the walls.

• The interior of a small apartment in oriental style is designed for two sisters. Tradition meets innovation here modern technologies, pure white surfaces, natural materials and compositions from living plants. Cassette blinds on the windows regulate natural light.

• Below is a project by Florentine designer Silvia Allori, in which she transformed her 42-meter apartment. The space is easily transformed, forming a working area and a place of rest. A panel descends from the wall, which is used as a desk and provides access to the shelving unit. The sofas arranged on the sides are laid out and turned into sleeping places. A bright touch for the ascetic interior of the apartment is a golden curtain in the dressing area, made of a shiny isothermal rescue blanket.

Working with limited space is interesting for designers because they need to thoroughly study the needs of clients in order to think through every detail of zoning, lighting, and color palette.

Minimalistic bathrooms

When choosing the size and shape of a bathroom, design composition, the global trend is towards reducing the area and creating a more intimate space. Large and massive bathtubs are being replaced by more compact models - not only to fit into the small dimensions of urban apartments, but also to indicate a sense of understated elegance and intimacy. A characteristic example of a new approach is bathroom furniture from Italian designer Stefano Cavazzana.

Furniture - a triumph of modular designs

The main requirement for new furniture design in 2017 - unobtrusiveness and versatility - stems from the desire to save space in urban housing.

Chairs, cabinets, chests of drawers should not take extra meters, plus each item performs several tasks in its place at once. Hence the main emphasis on modular systems: sliding tables, transformable racks, shelves, sofas.

An example of this approach is the bold collection of the Argentinean designer Natalia Getsi. Frequent moving inspired her to create a folding structure that is suitable for furnishing an office, kitchen, dressing room.

The basis is metal frames different sizes connected with wooden hinges. The configuration can be changed at will, supplemented with stands, shelves, hangers, pockets and mirrors. The system is easy to deploy, fold, carry.

The embodiment of the interior novelties of the year is the modular sofa of the German designer Werner Eislinger.

This is not just a sofa, but a whole block of tables, hangers, shelves, work surfaces, storage boxes. You can combine the parts yourself, to your taste. The color palette is also a choice. Such a sofa does not have to be placed against the wall, as is customary: it can take any place in the room.

In 2017, interior designers are counting primarily on people who prefer a simple home environment, an energetic lifestyle and are ready for change.

Symbiosis with technology

The habit of consumers to surround themselves with electronics at home has also influenced the novelties of interior items. Household appliances are increasingly being introduced into furniture: speakers from a home theater are hidden in sofa upholstery, a phone charger is built into the table top, a radio is combined with a bedside table.

Bed update

The wooden headboards were replaced by a soft back upholstered in fabric. Whether it's a classic in neutral hues or a bohemian version in velveteen, this bed is an easy way to freshen up a bedroom design and add charm to the setting.

marble finish colors

The novelty of interior design in the new year is the introduction of deeper, darker and warmer shades of marble into the interior of an apartment and a house. To create a luxurious image of the kitchen, designers advise using black or dark green stone. In bathroom cladding, white and gray Carrara marble is still in trend.

Non-ferrous metals in interior design 2017

Brass, copper, gold and silver remain in vogue. Decorators are developing new ways to incorporate these materials into rooms to provide aesthetic pleasure to owners.

Metal finishes are used for lighting fixtures, plumbing fixtures, and accessories. Replacing the popular pink copper in 2016, brass is coming to the fore - especially in the design of bathrooms, where it blends beautifully with marble slabs.

Reclaimed wood

We are talking about recycled wood. It is collected when dismantling old buildings, barns, warehouses, when dismantling ships and boats, from large packing boxes for equipment. After selecting suitable material, the boards are dried in an oven to stabilize the structure (heat treatment), then milled to remove the top layer and show the texture and color of the wood.

It is a cheap alternative to natural wood that helps to conserve forest resources. Another plus: in the preparation of secondary raw materials, much less energy is expended than in the processing of freshly cut trunks.

In 2017, interior designers are pushing for reclaimed wood floors and walls in kitchens, living rooms, bedrooms and bathrooms.

Terracotta

This is one of the most fashionable interior novelties of 2017. Fired clay tiles in matte or glossy versions attract attention with warm colors that are replacing today's popular white and other cool shades in home space design.

The material is used for cladding walls, floors, fireplaces. A profitable solution if you want to create a rustic atmosphere, but without a large-scale renovation. If terracotta tiles seem too rustic, you can complement them with matte tiles with brighter colors.

Unpainted and unfinished walls

Industrial look of plastered walls and brickwork- also an interior trend for next year. This is great news for those who want to save time and money on repairs.

Cork

The hit of the late 90s is back. Cork paneling was successfully used in kitchen decoration: recipes, shopping lists, children's drawings could be pinned to such walls, and finally, just leaning against it with pleasure.

In the interior design of 2017, the material will appear not only in the kitchen, but also in the bedroom, living room, home office.

Wall panels of a heterogeneous composition with a walnut-brown range perform more than just an aesthetic function. This is great soundproofing for the room. In furniture design, cork is used for coffee tables.

Soft and fluffy

Plush (velvet, velor, etc.) is back in fashion with a characteristic subtle sheen that gives the interior elegance. From rich historical apartments, he migrates to modern apartments and decorates sofas, ottomans, armchairs, headboards. The material is pleasant to the touch and charming in the role of decoration.

Novelties in interior decor

• Cards

In the new year, one of the best wall decorations - geographic Maps. If it is an imitation of an old document, then a sense of history will appear in the interior. But a modern map will work not just as an educational object, but also as a source of inspiration. Onward to adventure!

• The ubiquitous hexagons

The honeycomb pattern and shapes are a clear design trend in the minimalist style. This ornament is present in floor and wall tiles, carpet and wallpaper patterns, in the design of lampshades.

• Mandala

The spiritual symbol of Buddhist culture is a popular decorative element of the new season. Appropriate in the pattern of rugs and carpets.

• Jars instead of cups

Last year, trendy bars and restaurants served cocktails in glass jars instead of traditional cups. The original way got to home design, so it's worth stocking up on transparent containers for drinks.

Color palette

Actual color solutions for interiors in 2017:

• neon colors

The focus will be on small accents of neon (such as bright piping paired with neutrals) rather than dominant bold colors. With a bit of courage, you can use neon lighting to mark the focal point of the room.

• dark green

This is a mandatory element in the interior palette for the next 12 months. In the bedroom, shades of dark green will create a pleasant backdrop reminiscent of Scandinavian. In such an environment, linen, fur, non-ferrous metal lamps will harmoniously look.

Painted in emerald tones, the space is designed for relaxation. The cool color of the walls will support a calming mood. Including dark green pillows, armchairs, lampshades in the interior of the room, you can emphasize the depth of the design and saturate the house with natural colors.

• sunset colors

Scandinavian style still has a great influence on the interior design of modern apartments and houses. Soft light shades (peach, lavender, pale blue, pink) are combined with natural finishing materials, designer furniture and textural accents.

By itself, this palette creates a calm atmosphere, but if you want, you can make the design more contrasting by including shades of mustard, coal, emerald or indigo in the interior.

• Neutral Gamma

Muted shades of saffron and cinnamon, ocher, earthy colors will help to arrange the situation so that it acts peacefully. These are the keys to spiritual meditation.

The leitmotif of all the novelties of the interior in 2017 is the creation of a cozy, chamber space for a modern city dweller who wants to hide from the information saturation of the world around him at least for a while. Hence - a clear delimitation of rooms according to their intended purpose, a simple organization of space, a calm palette, soft textured textiles, natural motifs in decoration and decor.

The limited area of ​​apartments encourages the use of available meters as productively as possible. Modular designs are popular in furniture, which are easy to disassemble and carry, combine in a new combination of elements.

In the design of apartments in 2016, some graphics are in trend. Laconic lines of cabinets, modern wave-shaped bar stools, silvery lamps in the form of long elongated drops, glossy sheen of furniture facades - all this is not futurism, but it is no longer a modern classic.

In the photo: Kitchen design with an arched opening to the loggia

The kitchen area, equipped with a loggia, literally "begs" for redevelopment. By attaching a balcony to the living space, you thereby increase the usable area and insolation of the room. However, not always the project of the house allows for such a redevelopment of the apartment. Sometimes designers decide to keep the window sill, which, as a rule, becomes a bar counter or decor stand. The doorway to the loggia itself can sometimes take on an arched shape.

12. Built-in kitchen furniture

In the photo: Kitchen design with built-in furniture

The order does not directly depend on how correctly you organize the storage system. In the design of the apartments presented in the photo of the new products of 2016, built-in furniture structures “under the ceiling” are still relevant. Such furniture, occupying a minimum of space, forms enough space for storage and allows you to place the necessary utensils and household appliances. As a rule, apartment owners now prefer classic kitchen fronts, although sometimes models with an ultra-modern glossy finish can also be used.

13. Ecomotives in the interior of the kitchen of a city apartment

In order not to clutter up the room, designers in 2016 projects often use a narrow tabletop attached to the wall instead of the usual kitchen table. Such furniture does not require large footage from the kitchen. And a pair of bright plastic chairs, which are mobile, will bring some fresh colors to the interior.

In 2016, if you believe the photos of new products, an individual creative approach is still welcome. This room, according to the ideas of designers, should surprise with unusual solutions. Both modern style and more presentable classics are very popular.

However, the design project of the apartment in the photo itself looks like a black and white shot. Thanks to the combination of white and silver shades, the modern apartments have acquired a retro look.

17. Multi-colored bright accents

Pictured: Living room design with colorful accents

Modern apartment design ideas promote the use of neutral shades as a backdrop. However, such a color scheme should be diluted with bright accents. For example, in the interior in the photo above, sofa cushions, poufs and chairs bring rich colors into the room. Thanks to such accents, the coffee-cream composition acquires a certain carelessness of childhood.

Bedroom design: photos and novelties 2016

Modern bedrooms are very multifunctional rooms, divided into several zones. In addition to the bed, there is almost always room for a dressing table or chest of drawers. Modern ideas, according to the photo of 2016, involve the arrangement of a small office in the bedroom interior. If the initial area of ​​​​the room is not enough, then it can be increased by attaching a loggia, using a window sill as a desktop and built-in furniture. As for stylistic trends, in 2016, along with classics, modern style and eco-motives are also often found.

To complete the experience, it remains only to add a home fountain or install a small palm tree.

Looking through the photos of the new products of 2016, you probably paid attention more than once to the fact that small boudoirs are now relevant for bedroom design. To form such a boudoir zone, in fact, only a small dressing table and a pouffe are enough. The main thing is that the furniture in the mini-boudoir should correspond to the general stylistic direction. For example, the dressing table shown in the photo above, thanks to the pilasters in the decoration, is in harmony with the arched vault, and with the general classical lines characteristic of the interior design of the room.

21. Crib for a newborn

In the photo: An example of a bedroom interior with a crib for a newborn

In a family with a newborn, designers are often faced with the task of placing a crib in the adult bedroom. For the cradle, it is best to choose a part of the room that is inaccessible to drafts and bright light. This will provide the baby with a complete and relaxing rest. You can protect the crib for the baby using a translucent curtain, as in the photo above.

22. Faceted mirrors in the decoration of the head of the bed

The design of the bedroom, as the photos of the new products of 2016 show, largely depends on the decor of the bedside area. As practice shows, the wall above the head of the bed carries the main decorative load in the interior of the sleeping room. If you are afraid to make a mistake with the choice of decor for this part of the bedroom, then pay attention to the bevelled mirrors. Such a decision will definitely not go unnoticed. Bevelled mirror surfaces, among other things, will add a drop of glamorous sparkle inherent in the Art Deco style to the space and visually make the room seem more spacious.

In you, like a couple of years ago, bright shades and a multifunctional approach are now welcome. The space for the child should include a sleeping area, a play area, and a corner for doing homework. Therefore, as the experience of a private designer Lidia Podoksenova shows, neither built-in shelves, nor open shelving, nor multifunctional furniture are ever superfluous here. In the design of the children's room in the photo of 2016, the following modern ideas could often be found.

And it doesn't look tasteless or pretentious at all. Such an abundance of colors will only contribute to the development of the child's creative imagination.

25. Shelves with through shelves

Thanks to this technique, additional areas appear in the room for storing trifles important for the baby: toys, books, gifts and your own crafts.

26. Classroom (study area)

In imperial Russia, rich houses always had classrooms where children could study with governesses and home teachers. AT modern world Toddlers have to do just as much homework as in the past. And no one canceled classes with tutors. Therefore, the presence of a classroom in an apartment with a child is now becoming mandatory. It is very simple to equip a corner for classes in the nursery. In addition to a desk and chair, you will need a small whiteboard where the tutor or the child can take notes.

27. Sofa bed in a niche

The design of the modern-style bathroom shown in the photo has gained uniqueness thanks to the photo-printed tiles.

In the design of a large bathroom in 2016, as before, partitions are still relevant.

Requires especially careful handling of the available footage. In order to significantly damage such a room, it is enough just to choose the wrong cabinet or set the table in the wrong place. Most often, the planning decisions of such apartments involve the addition of a loggia. The configurations of some objects allow you to make a two-room apartment from a one-room apartment by moving the kitchen to the living room. In such cases, the former kitchen room, as a rule, becomes a nursery or an office.

In some photos of the new products of 2016 in the design of one-room apartments, you can see partitions. This is especially true for those situations where, in addition to the sofa, it is also planned to install a bed in the living room.

Design of an apartment in the style of minimalism. (photo, novelties 2016)

The modern world of interiors is striking in its diversity: even the most fastidious owner of an apartment or house can find the perfect solution for himself. Despite the variability of fashion, you can always identify the main trends that set the rules for current trends in creating a fashionable interior.

Interior of a loft-style apartment in Moscow. (photo, novelties 2016)

The current 2016 is characterized by the following main trends in interior fashion:

1. Individual approach to everything, a combination of environmental friendliness and functionality. (photo, novelties 2016)

Today, designers around the world do not prefer standard interior items that can be found in every second apartment, but appreciate individual unique “things”. Such things allow you to emphasize the individual style of the room, to distinguish it from other similar ones. At the same time, it is not so important to chase after brightness, extravagance, great attention is given to the functionality of things for the tenants of the premises.

Modern interiors are no longer simple beautiful pictures, because they require deep analytical thinking from designers - only thanks to this, the design of a house or apartment will be able to satisfy the smallest needs of its residents. Health is one of the most important of these needs. For this reason, designers are actively advocating the environmental friendliness of interior items, calling for the abandonment of the use of synthetic materials in the design of premises.

Eco-friendly materials in the interior. (photo, novelties 2016)

2. Scandinavian style confidently holds a leading position. (photo, novelties 2016)

At first glance, this direction in the interior may seem harsh and somewhat dry. However, this style deserves closer attention, as it harmoniously combines practicality and comfort.

A distinctive feature of the Scandinavian style is monochrome walls, usually painted in soothing pastel colors. Furniture and other decor items that make up the Scandinavian style are made from natural raw materials (for example, light-colored wood).

Another specific feature of this style is practically complete absence curtains and other decor on the windows. This can be explained by the fact that in Scandinavian countries there is very little sunlight and curtains are not needed. In the interior, curtains can only be present in the hall.

A living room decorated in a Scandinavian style often does not contain furniture and other accessories in bright colors. At the same time, the furniture contains a large number of different shelves, drawers and compartments for storing a variety of things.

3. Furniture made from transparent raw materials. (photo, novelties 2016)

Modern furniture is made not only from fragile glass, but also often made of acrylic and plastic. Transparent designs of products look weightless, thereby effectively unloading the overall interior of the room.

4. The presence of inscriptions in the interior. (photo, novelties 2016)

Today, inscriptions in the interior are no longer considered bad form, but have rightfully become one of the elements of fashionable design. The inscriptions can show off on the walls, on furniture and on other decor items. It can be a declaration of love, and a quote from your favorite book, or just a beautiful hieroglyph.

An excellent solution would be to create a special wall on which you can write with chalk or charcoal. To do this, simply paint a piece of the wall or the entire wall with slate paint. On such a wall, you can not only write down your favorite expressions and make plans for the current day, but also leave tender messages to your husband (wife).

5. Wide application in the interior white color.

We all know that color is an important component of any interior. The combination of different color shades used in the interior of the room, first of all, affects the overall perception of the room.

White color is always a win-win option for any room. It not only goes well with all colors, but also allows you to achieve various visual effects. First of all, white color is used to visually increase the area of ​​\u200b\u200bthe room.

At the same time, it is important to use different shades of white correctly. For example, white furniture in a dark room runs the risk of visually turning into a gray one. Design professionals teach the correct use of white. So, in the role of the main shade of white in such a dark room, it is worth using a warm shade of white (almond, shell, antique, etc.). At that time, the ideal solution for interior design of small rooms in the southern part would be the use of cold shades of white (snowy, smoky, etc.).

6. A combination of white and black tones.

This combination of light and dark will perfectly fit into the interior of any direction. White and black interior items are a great choice for high-tech style, art deco, as well as popular minimalism and timeless classics. At the same time, it does not matter at all how exactly you create a black and white interior - whether it will be asymmetric patterns or strict ornaments in the form of a checkerboard, etc.

In any case, do not forget to keep a balance so that white and black tones balance each other. You can also use bright colored details and interior elements. AT otherwise an unbalanced black and white interior can negatively affect your psychosomatic state.

7. The dominance of the industrial style (photos, new items 2016)

Today, industrial style confidently occupies a leading position in the interior. This is not surprising, because it rightfully remains the ideal choice for creative people who at the same time can afford to be a little lazy.

It can be said without exaggeration that in our years industrialism has entered a new stage of development. At the same time, the main ideas of this style are freedom and technicality.

Admirers of industrialism do not puzzle over how to make the communications of the home as hidden from prying eyes as possible. Wires, pipes, meters and other similar things become the original decor of the room. A room in this style contains a minimum of accessories, while each of them is special and unique.

8. Use clues from the environment.

Today, you can not rack your brains, choosing a combination of colors for a bright, fashionable and attractive design, just look at the natural world around us. Nature has created amazing masterpieces, perfect combinations of colors, which is already a ready-made color solution for the interior.

You can decorate the interior of your home in the following options:

The combination of turquoise and white (sea waves),

A pair of flowers - violet and pistachio (violet leaves and flowers),

Combination of orange and green (orange tree),

Golden and terracotta shades (colors of the autumn park).

These are just some examples of the perfect color combinations that nature has given us. What exactly to choose is up to you.

9. Folklore motifs.

Trendy interiors in 2016 contain various ornate patterns and pretty floral ornaments. Such patterns are characteristic of the culture of many peoples - for example, Slavs, gypsies. Attractive patterns and ornaments allow you to create a unique fairy tale in the house, emphasize the unique style of the home. The interior of the house (apartment) should contain the theme of flora and fauna.

Cute unique fakes, which today are commonly called the word “handmade”, will not only become the “highlight” of any room, but will also become a sign of fashionable design.

10. Second life for things.

Interior designers offer all those who care about the comfort and attractiveness of their home to give new life to things from the past. This direction of interior design is rightfully considered a full-fledged lifestyle based on a new way of thinking.

It is enough to show a little imagination and originality and the forgotten unsightly thing will become a real decoration of the hall. To search for such things, you can not go to flea markets, but just take old furniture left over from your grandmother. So you can save a hefty amount of money.

Features of the design of various apartments in 2016

1-room apartment

This year, designers are calling for turning boring one-room apartments into studio apartments. To do this, you need to combine the kitchen and living room. As for the design of the hallway, it can be both designed in the general style of the room, and performed in other trends.

2-room apartment

2-room dwellings are very popular not only among couples with children, but also among any family who wants to live in comfort. Any person likes to be alone with himself, to relax after a hard day's work, without straining his partner.

If you want to remove interior doors and turn the apartment into a single space, remember that the interiors of neighboring rooms and their color schemes should, if not matched, then be in harmony with each other, because another area will be visible from the next room. If you don't want to part with interior doors, then you can not rack your brains and arrange each separate room at your discretion.

Khrushchev

The Khrushchev apartment is characterized by the presence of tiny rooms, which requires an even more careful choice of a suitable interior style. In this case, it is better to entrust the creation of design to true professionals in their field, because otherwise an incorrectly selected detail will not only look aesthetically pleasing, but also interfere physically.

Particular attention should be paid to the design of the kitchen. Properly selected kitchen set can make even a very tiny room as functional as possible.

Popular finishing solutions

If you want your home to look modern and inviting, opt for plain, pastel-colored walls. If desired, the walls can be decorated with original relief.

As for the ceilings, high ceilings with luxurious chandeliers are still in fashion today. If a rich chandelier is too expensive for you, choose practical small lamps.

The floors in the apartment must be first of all strong and durable.

Pay special attention to the choice of furniture, both upholstered and cabinet.

Fashionable upholstered furniture looks unusual, its frame can be made of materials such as plastic, wood, glass, etc. The silhouette of such products is streamlined. Modern cabinet furniture does not lag behind upholstered unusual shapes and materials.
