As people remain at home during a pandemic, they’ve sought ways to create living spaces that feel cozy yet distinct – furniture trends like curved lines, vintage aesthetics and colorful chairs all fit that bill perfectly.
Patterned fabrics add character and flair to any space, easily fitting in with existing decor.
1. Bold and Bright Colors
Reviving a bedroom corner or making an eye-catching statement in your living space? Shopping for new furniture is an affordable and effective way to update your home without undertaking major remodeling efforts. From vibrant hues to curvier lines, here are 2023’s hottest furniture trends that are sure to add stylishness and coziness.
Raspberry blush is an eye-catching hue beloved by designers, making an instant impactful statement in any space it graces. Incorporating this vibrant shade into accent chairs or headboards will add instantaneous drama.
Brown tones, particularly rich mocha hues, are making a comeback in design circles. According to designer Claire Druga, this natural hue brings about an earthy ambience and creates a sense of stability that connects us back with mother earth. Use it on classic Chesterfield or modern modular sofas as anchor pieces in your space; additionally it pairs nicely with earthy materials like woven naturals and wood grain surfaces with surface treatments such as washes or stains for an earthy touch in any room in which it is featured!
2. Organic Shapes
Integrating organic shapes into your home is an excellent way to soften any room, be it through posters or artwork with irregular or round shapes, or creating your own sculptures.
Brown shades such as tans and ages have also proven popular this season for furniture as they add an earthy tone to the room and give a more natural aesthetic. Furthermore, these hues pair perfectly with minimalist and Scandinavian designs as they play off of their simple forms perfectly.

3. Vintage Aesthetics
One of the hottest furniture color trends of 2023 are eye-catching bold hues such as deep red, cobalt blue and emerald green – whether used on statement sofas or accent chairs they add instant visual interest to any space.
Conversely, neutral tones have gained increasing attention. The minimalist design trend continues its surge forward, featuring furniture styles featuring straight lines and simple shapes as well as multifunctional pieces such as couch beds or storage ottomans.
Mix-and-match eras have also become increasingly popular among furniture retailers. Art Deco, 1970s styles, classical and modern-meets-traditional are all making appearances in showroom vignettes and individual furniture items.
4. Comfortable Seating
Starting with cozy accent chairs to oversized sofas, new furniture pieces can make an immediate impact in a room. When considering minor updates or total remodels of a space, it is crucial to know which trends experts believe will dominate in 2023.
Curved seating will make an eye-catching statement in 2023 for those who enjoy lounging around and relaxing, whether its full voluptuous curves or simply gentle ones. Curves add a unique look while still providing comfort – not to mention they complement other styles such as rustic to modern seating options!
5. Nostalgia
Furniture designers are increasingly drawn to bold fabrics. Furniture like this Isla Re-invented recliner from Isla, with its Cisco Rayas Noire stripes adding subtle pop, is sure to spark discussions and start conversations among guests.
Natural brown hues such as deep mochas and walnut finishes have seen an upsurge in popularity due to their ability to add warmth into a room, creating balance and depth through curvier silhouettes.
Nubby fabrics like boucle’ and sherpa may be losing their luster, but woven natural materials such as rattan, cane and wicker remain popular choices for homeowners looking for something sustainable with traditional roots. Abner Henry now offers more of these pieces that combine these sustainable qualities.
6. Biophilic Aesthetics
Add natural elements into your home for an appealing biophilic aesthetic by bringing natural elements like rugs or chairs featuring biophilic designs into it. One popular method is using looped fabrics like this jute rug from MADE; their soft looped fabric offers the ideal spot for seating and relaxation.
One option is adding wooden furniture pieces to your home. This trend has grown increasingly popular as people seek sustainable ways to style their living spaces.
Natural wood finishes add warmth and texture to your home environment, as well as being ideal for minimalist or Scandinavian design aesthetics. Plus, natural wood furniture fits seamlessly with both contemporary and vintage decor styles!
7. Sculptural and Carved
Reeded details have made a comeback in furniture designs. This style is ideal for homeowners looking to add an air of elegance and sophistication into their homes, such as adding this decorative accent on cabinets or coffee tables.
Woven natural materials have also experienced an upsurge, from rattan and cane to Danish paper cord front panels in wood products such as Made Goods’ Vanna bar cabinet. Furthermore, makers are prioritizing eco-friendliness by choosing low impact performance fabrics and dyes, or offering vegan leather options.
Add an eye-catching piece with a sculptural feel by including a carved pier table or chair with an arched silhouette into your space, such as American Leather’s Cisco Rayas Noire Strips piece. For texture, try including something that features fabric patterns such as these Cisco Rayas Noire stripes!
8. Soft Angles and Curves
With so much home furniture design taking cues from nature, it’s not surprising that curves have made a dramatic comeback in furniture design. Voluptuous or gently rounded silhouettes offer more relaxing aesthetic than straight-lined furniture designs.
As more homeowners embrace asymmetry in their home decor, mismatched bedroom, dining and living room furniture has become a trend that can add both subtle or bold design touches depending on how it’s used. This trend can become either subtle or prominent depending on how it is implemented into a design scheme.
Traditional decor elements are making a comeback as well, including pattern mixing, skirted and flanged furniture, English rolled sofas, wingback accent chairs and antique pieces with detailed features. Brown tones – especially those from darker woods – may make an appearance again as well, providing stability and grounding within a home; their natural hue is ideal for counteracting all-white decor schemes.
9. Traditional Decor Elements
New furniture can breathe new life into a room, creating an impactful design statement without needing an extensive home remodel. From large seating pieces that command attention to accent chairs tucked into cozy bedroom nooks, these trends offer numerous ways to breathe new life into 2023 homes.
Bold colors are back in fashion, with homeowners seeking out accent pieces in vibrant reds and deep blues as well as natural tones like green to add depth and dimension to their rooms.
Traditional decor elements were another trend at High Point this spring. Look for modern interpretations of farmhouse style furniture like Abner Henry’s handcrafted sleigh bed or South + English’s Portman chair which combine a classic silhouette with contemporary details such as metal bases or cerused wood finishes for maximum impact.
10. Cozy Nooks and Hygge Vibes
Reviving your space requires only new furniture to bring life back into it, from cozy accent chairs nestled into cozy bedroom nooks to bold statement seating pieces – there are numerous choices available to give your home an updated appearance without incurring the expense of an entire remodel.
Hygge is all about slowing down and enjoying life’s simple pleasures, making incorporating its aesthetics into your home easy with cozy seating areas where loved ones can come together and unwind. Books make an essential component of hygge decor – why not add stacks of your favourite reads to your coffee or tea bar so guests can peruse?
