Of course you can ask 20 different designers what they think to be popular at the moment and heading into the next season, and they will each give you a different response. This is perhaps because there is no set rule and this is also, perhaps, because each designer has his own signature style, each reflective of a different way of living. Today’s general trends do tend to infuse or be influenced by luxury. Perhaps this is most evident in the recent Gatsby Style influence that seems to have a modern take on Mid-Century Modern as well as Art Deco where we saw the streamlined furniture with clean cut linear sophistication, decorative embellishments on furniture, fabrics and even walls coverings which include glass and crystal. Glass and crystal are everywhere as are metals, especially brass. The rich deep colors of that era are making a comeback as is inlayed wood.
