As we’re gathering steam into 2024, it’s a great time to see which predictions are holding and evaluate any new additions to the luxury interior design scene. We’ll cover information from luxury brands and designers to compile ten of the top luxury interior design trends for 2024.

We’ll include silhouettes, color schemes, tones, materials, architecture, brands, and more!

1.   Fashion Trends Impacting Interior Design

While the wider world of design continues to evolve, fashion and home design don’t always flow in the same direction. Often, in fact, they oppose each other.

However, luxury designers are seeing recent fashion trends having a high impact on the luxury interior design scene. While latte and mocha trends have hit makeup and fashion, creamy, rich browns are showing up more often in luxury spaces.

Reds were also hot in the 2023 fashion world, and this trend is starting to bleed over into luxury home design.

2.   Sophistication Over Flash

You may have heard of the “quiet luxury” movement– if not, you’ll likely see it highlighted a lot more in 2024. Championed by brands like Hermes, these statement pieces are taking the stage over other pieces. Rather than creating a flashy space around trend-specific shapes, current luxury spaces use statement pieces to anchor the room’s design.

Fast-fashion furniture is also moving out. Designers are favoring classic, well-made furniture pieces that will stand the test of time. These pieces can be reupholstered to refresh designs through the years while maintaining the same frame and silhouette.

3.   Design to Match the Local Scene

Everyone is over the perfectly staged, matching Instagram design scene. In 2024, luxury interior designers are pushing to create more personalized spaces, including leaning more heavily on local influences.

Local architecture, artisanal pieces, color schemes, and materials are informing design choices. Highlighting local history and culture allows for a much more personal and meaningful space and depth that can’t be achieved by mass-produced, mass-consumed design.

4.   Mono-Rooms

Bold, deep colors are taking over the pristine, all-white spaces of the 2010s. But mono-tone is still in– from all brown, green, terracotta, and mauve, we’ve seen it all in the luxury design space.

The fascination of a monochrome room comes from the unexpected benefit of surprising layers. When everything is the same color, textures, silhouettes, and materials steal the spotlight. Each design choice matters even more when everything is the same color, and that’s what makes statement furniture, lighting, and artwork shine.

5.   More is More for Textiles

In 2024, luxury designers will use many more textile varieties, even playfully incorporating materials that traditionally don’t pair—like velvet and corduroy. You’ll see plaster, tile, and wood elements all in use in the same space, as well as satin and velvet, marble, and glass.

However, not all textiles are in circulation this year. Boucle fabrics and faux fur throws are cycling out.

6.   The “Last Layer” of Personalization

Personalization is taking center stage as luxury designs tire of highly minimalist, identical designs. Luxury designer Jeremiah Brent told Vogue:

“There’s been such a movement in celebrating handmade and one-of-a-kind pieces. Pottery, dishware, and art add such a bespoke feel… I call these pieces ‘the last layer’ when we’re accessorizing a new space.”

While artisanal and historic pieces are certainly a huge part of this personalized layer, that’s not all. Kathryn Ireland, another well-known luxury designer, also likes to incorporate her children’s artwork from grade school into her home.

7.   European Architecture and Design

Classic European designs are returning to luxury interiors– from ceiling moldings and medallions to arches, columns, and decor.

Some designers are curating an entirely European scene with classic art collections, sculptures, moody greens and mauves, and heavy textiles.

Others highlight only a few aspects of classic European designs and incorporate them into more modern settings, like adding a Renaissance-style molded medallion around a light fixture. Tapestries too!

8.   Custom Sculptural Lighting

No luxury design is complete without carefully curated lighting, and 2024 trends are no exception. You’ll see many custom light fixtures in different formats, from innovative chandeliers to unique pendants and statement lamps.

You’ll also continue to see smart home and technological information, like custom LED configurations for mood lighting and backlights.

9.   Revival of the 70s, 80s, and 90s

The nostalgia of the 70’s, 80’s, and 90’s are showing in elevated recreations of hallmark design trends.

Midcentury modern silhouettes, colors, and material selections continue to be used heavily in luxury interiors– although you’ll notice that the focus now is more on the soft curves and away from the more angular MCM options.

You’ll also see a rise in glass bricks from the 1980s and 90s, but not in showers like they were initially used. They’re now being highlighted in custom tiles, flooring, and tables.

Deep, warm, earth tones like browns and greens are having a big moment. Golds and brass, dark wood tones, and even wood paneling are returning with sleek updates.

10. Custom Spaces like “Kitschens” and “Spathrooms”

The rising personalization trend continues in luxury spaces as designers take over “kitchens” and “bathrooms”– a fresh take on kitchens and bathrooms.

The rise of “kitschens” includes highlighting the kitchen as the center of the home once again. Moving away from sterile, perfect, all-white kitchens, these “kitschens” now use custom tile, deep colors, and unique patterns to fill a uniquely styled space.

“Spathrooms” are the increasing conversion of the standard bathroom into a more luxurious spa experience. This includes more extensive custom showers and soak tubs, as well as the use of smooth stone, custom lighting, soothing colors, and plant life.
