Trend Alert: 10 New Design Developments on Our Radar for Fall 2017

by Published: September 11, 2017

Recently, over dinner, a friend of mine said she thinks interiors trends are being cannibalized quicker now that we’re in the Instagram/Pinterest era. We have to agree; we’ve watched as trends emerge only to go viral in a matter of months. Now, you can be sure that the artisan-created Sculptural Lamp you’re admiring in the present will turn up at West Elm in a matter of months.

Here’s our roundup of 10 emerging design developments for fall (track them with us in our Trend Alert column).

1. Tiled Countertops

2. Architectural Glass

an emerging trend we’re seeing is the use of architectural glass— 18

4. Excavated Style

Designer Deborah Ehrlich explains the appeal; she likes the “archeological history of it.” Here, old wallpaper glue makes an X-shape pattern in a Provence house by LSL Architects.

5. Framed Posters

6. Kitchenettes

7. Surface Texture Paints

8. Primitive Furniture

10. Portuguese Style

lately we&#8\2\17;ve been gravitating to portuguese design, as in the above 26
