10 Interior Design Trends We’re Quiet Quitting in 2023
Context matters. Yes, trends come and go, but at the end of the day, taste is subjective, and there’s no room for the negative projections of others in spaces that make you feel safe, happy, and true to yourself—however the interiors are decorated.
That being said, we do live in an incredibly fast-paced digital era where crazes become hyper-obsessions until they very quickly reach a peak, become oversaturated, and pass their prime.
#2 Squeaky clean kitchens
The extremely modern minimalist kitchen, which you’ll often find in all-white or gray. There’s not a single bowl on the counter or any eccentric marbling in the counter stone! Often, the cabinets will come in a high gloss polish, but certainly never a glossy appliance in sight. A terrifying place to cook. What are we here for? Think the antithesis, celebrity hairstylist Harry Josh’s country house kitchen, brimming with bowls, plants, and spices on every surface. It’s warm, homey, joyful, and welcoming—everything a kitchen should be.

Apartment in Northern India Channels Faraway Beachside Living
Quaint curios, rustic finishes, and surprises around every corner transform a Gurugram apartment into a vision of beachside living in breezy Goa, the faraway Indian state that stretches along the Arabian sea. Architects Navya Aggarwal and Simran Gawri designed the living room, dining nook, and main bedroom of this two-bedroom apartment on a tight 60-day deadline by minimizing structural interventions. They instead paid attention to the smallest of details: curtain ties and cushion covers have been given as much weight as the hard furnishings, and the result is a home that is sprinkled with surprises at every turn.
All the furniture is custom-designed and made of ashwood, a material whose yellow tones blend well into the bright, beachy palette of sea greens and minty blues. “You will also see a lot of whites, and a lot of sandy shades,” says Navya. “There’s a lot of textures at play, but not a lot of contrast within any single piece.”
The dining space is presided over by a long six-seater table, furnished with a bench on one side and three chairs on the other. “The idea was that they can always move this bench around to add to the living room set-up,” Navya says. On the far side, a hutch is ornamented with wooden dowels. Sleepy palm trees in shades of green and grey background the arrangement, while two large cane lights create a play of light and shadow over it, completing the beachy tableau.
