For 2026, I’m excited to see a revival of artisan-led interiors: handwoven textiles, local craftsmanship and organic forms creating beautiful spaces that feel rooted in heritage. It’s all about texture, story, and soulful details that bring homes to life.

Dopamine Design is more than just a current trend - it’s a lasting shift toward understanding our spaces and what evokes emotional wellbeing. Rooted in proportion, sensory comfort, intuitive flow, and quiet detail, this movement creates interiors that make us feel inherently good. It’s not just how a space looks - it´s how deeply it makes us feel.

Interior design trends are embracing a wider spectrum of colours, moving away from predominantly neutrals. Earthy tones like terracotta and rust, bold jewel tones, and soothing pastels are gaining popularity, alongside vibrant pink accents. This shift reflects a desire for spaces that are both grounding and expressive, with a strong connection to nature.

 A new kind of luxury is emerging: discreet, enduring, and deeply conscious of sustainability. This paradigm shifts away from fleeting trends, embracing instead an awareness that values innovative materials and technologies designed to offer comfort and unique sensory experiences within the home. Contemporary luxury honors time, authenticity, and emotion, inviting us to inhabit spaces that transcend mere objects of desire to become sanctuaries of well-being and meaningful connection with the surrounding environment.

Sensory design proposes spaces that go beyond aesthetics, transforming them into tactile, visual and emotional experiences. The trend is to create environments that awaken the senses and embrace them. It values texture, natural light, tactile materials and elements that evoke memory. It's about feeling the space with emotion - deeply and intentionally.

Design prioritizes functionality and comfort, addressing increasingly smaller homes with the rise of home offices and compact living. The quiet luxury concept highlights timeless pieces, noble materials, and unique textures, all aligned with sustainability. Interiors tell stories of memories, emotions, and experiences that transcend generations.
