JOA STUDHOLME FARROW & BALL
Whilst we’re not in the business of being too prescriptive, especially as it concerns trends, we have seen a move away from cold tones like pale grays and stark whites. The use of white on trim will definitely wain as people continue to experiment with colour combination, and delight in how these unexpected combinations make them feel. Farrow & Ball makes colours that have a timeless charm and create different feelings within spaces, so we urge an embrace of life’s rich rainbow, as well as a play with texture and pattern (i.e. hanging wallpaper across ceiling, the contrast of Dead Flat and Full Gloss within a space). farrow-ball.com
CYNTHIA VENGROW VITA DESIGN GROUP
All white everything with expected minimal materials is out for 2024. Although that design trend made the home feel quiet and calming, the aesthetic became expected. Clients are now embracing ultra-luxe materials for 2024. We are using them in upholstery, with lush velvets and soft leathers, stone with deep-veined marbles in amazing hues, and metals that patina beautifully to make a more dramatic notable statement in their homes. We are excited for VDG’s 2024 custom homes. vdgarch.com
LISA HELDWHITE BREAKWATER RENOVATION & DESIGN
Our clients are moving away from the neutral white & grey color schemes. I am seeing color being added back into rooms, primarily with accent walls incorporating color with texture and/or pattern. breakwaterdesignbuild.com

Going into 2024 we’re seeing a shift in how we use materials that we love, moving away from recently popular colors and finishes, and presenting them in a fresh way. Much as we love white boucle, for example, we’re now using this versatile fabric in colors like moss green or petrol blue. White oak is another much loved material. We still enjoy its warmth and texture, but we’re seeing it used in deeper tones, and we’re introducing other woods such as walnut and deep rosewoods. douglasgraneto.com
