When you think of 'trends', you probably think of something very current and new, but in the world of interior design, things are being done a bit differently. In 2024 and definitely at the start of this year, so many 'trends' have in fact come from the past with designers looking back for inspiration.
Never has decorating with vintage pieces and creating characterful, layered homes been more dominant in interior design trends and with that has come the return of a traditional bedroom feature – the bed canopy. Drawing upon the classic style usually seen in grand hotel rooms or period properties, designers are opting for this timeless look that brings a sense of drama and whimsy. 'It gives the bed presence, height, and balance. The addition of the fabric softens the overall space. There’s also a romance to it, which I love.' says Lonika Chande.
