As we are welcoming the New Year in a few months, some importers might have a question in mind “What is the trend for 2022, and what products to source now to start the year fabulously?”
Find out what are the next biggest trends for furniture– straight from Asean Sourcing Merchandiser!
1. Rounded shapes furniture
Rounded shapes furniture is predicted to be on trend next year. This trend is inspired by softness and feminine forms. As you can see, many furniture sellers both online and in-store have round-edge furniture collections with no corners and soften harsh lines.
Pay attention to tables, lamps, poufs, and sofas – almost all furniture designers have rounded right angles. Instead of a rigid, straight structure, even the chairs and stools have a softened body.
In the mass market, you can find a reflection of the trend in the form of chairs and coffee tables, as well as vases and candlesticks.
2. Minimalism
Minimalist style is still on trend for next year. This is yet another global trend, bolstered by the 2021 situation. During the pandemic, many people tried to get rid of old, broken-down items. This had an impact not only on the wardrobe but also on the home.
We’re not talking about complete minimalism, as seen in magazine images – these are more experimental projects. But what about the use of minimal decoration and furniture? The main requirement for an apartment is the presence of air and open space.
The conscious shopping principle reinforces the trend. This is what mindful shopping is all about: avoiding waste and impulse purchases. It is not necessary to decorate all of the walls; simply highlight one wall with paint or with the help of paintings and other accessories. The adage “Less is more” is more relevant than ever.
3. Nature-inspired style
Nature-inspired style is one of the major interior design trends for 2021-2022. The lockdown has demonstrated the importance of surrounding ourselves with natural materials and textures. This trend has been applied in everything – interior design, furniture, and decor.
Stone textures become the most popular trend in this case, including onyx, marble, granite, and wood. These materials are commonly used in home decor and furniture. They work particularly well as accents. It also could be natural stone-effect wood paneling on the wall or floor. The other example is coffee tables with a stone top, a solid stone kitchen island or an apron will be the accents in the kitchen area.
4. Office Furniture
COVID-19 Pandemic has changed some people’s way of working. The work-from-home trend forces many people to work at home. Working at the kitchen table or on the sofa is not only uncomfortable but also bad for one’s health. However, many people also find that working at home is more convenient rather than working at the office. This trend has affected the furniture industry. Home office furniture such as a modern designed desk and office chair is expected to be a new furniture trend for 2022.
