Hi, my name is Emily Farber and I'm a Realtor® with Lepic-Kroeger, Realtors® in Iowa City,
Iowa. Thanks for joining me today. I put out videos all about real estate and the
greater Iowa City area. The first is what I call grand millennial style. This is a
traditional, classic, design style but with a modern flair. Think clean lines,
clean edges, and contemporary materials. Number two bold monochromatics are in,
gray on gray is out! When you're thinking about bold of monochromatic color
palettes, consider what the Pantone 2020 color of the year is. It's "Classic Blue"
which is a bold, familiar blue, not quite a cobalt, but it sure does make a
statement. Think bold colors like jewel tones and very rich colors layered upon
layer upon layer. Walls, upholstery, fabrics, curtains, pillows all picking up
that same color and driving the impact statement up. Trend number three mixing
and matching. Real life is not an Instagram picture and perfection is out.
People want real spaces with real treasures that reflect who they are.
Think high and low, designer and Target. Real, unique, handcrafted pieces to tell
the tale of a life well-lived. Trend number four. Warm earth tones. People
are craving color and they wanted to feel warm. Think warm ochres, saffrons,
earthy greens, dusky shades of familiar colors like dusky pink, dusky lavender,
dusky mint green. Trend number five. Patterns, patterns everywhere. Do not be
afraid of a pattern. You'll see patterns in places like flooring, carpets,
tile work, backsplashes. And, you can layer and layer your patterns and they don't
have to match, but if you do like to match, that's a thing, too! Look at this.
Trend number six. Bold black and white. It makes a statement
every time. Number seven. Two toned kitchens.
Sorry guys, white on white is heading out. Now that doesn't mean you have to banish
white altogether, maybe just move the white to the upper bay of cabinets and
think about a bolder statement color down below. Number eight.
Mixed metals. This is great news for those of us who cannot commit to only
one metal throughout the house. Don't be afraid of mixing your metals. Number nine.
Botanical vibes. The outside is coming inside. Think lush, floral, and vegetative
prints, wood grains, stone veining, imperfect shapes, organic materials. All
of those will find their way inside into your design choices. Number 10.
Bold ceilings. That blank slate up there it doesn't just have to be white.
The ceiling is the perfect foil to make a statement, be it color, pattern, or texture.
Hey thanks for joining me on today's video. I hope you have found it to be fun!
