Say “yes” to an interior glass door

Are you looking for the ideal interior door for your home? Depending on your needs, a glass door could be THE perfect solution. Here’s why.

Glass doors are both chic and understated. Plus, they’re easily customizable and fit seamlessly into various decorating styles. They help create separate spaces in your home while retaining visual harmony throughout.

One of the greatest advantages of glass doors is their ability to let nat-

ural light flow through. By reducing your reliance on artificial light sources, you benefit from lower electricity bi lls. Increased natural light can also help reduce eye strain, which is especially important if you’re setting up a home office. Additionally, bringing more sunlight into your home can boost your energy levels.

Want a little more privacy? Choose frosted or textured glass.

Interior design: Seven trends to watch in 2026

The end of 2025 is fast approaching! Are you thinking about refreshing your home decor? Are you curious about what styles and trends to expect in 2026? Watch for these seven i nspiring design trends.

1. Must-have colours. Trending colours for 2026 offer an intriguing palette. Look for shades like teal green, pu rple, yellow-green, reddish brown, mustard yellow, fuchsia and mint green in wall paint, furniture, textiles and decorative items like rugs a nd cushions.

2. Discreet technology. Smart devices and home automation are now i n virtually every room in the home. For 2026, designers are focusing on integrating these technologies seamlessly into home decor, creating a

calm and harmonious environment.

3. Sustainable and eco-friendly materials. Consumers are increasingly prioritizing and proudly choosing products with a low environmental impact. As a result, you can expect to see a surge in the use of recycled materials and locally sourced furniture i n 2026.

4. Parisian bourgeois style. Inspired by the in-vogue “Jolie Madame” clothing style, this trend is an elegant alternative to minimalism. It combines contrasts and luxurious materials, creating chic and feminine interiors.

5. Oversized furniture. Comfort is key in 2026! Big, cozy armchairs and plump, rounded sofas will be all the rage. Curved, padded headboards will also be in style.

6. Designer faucets. Faucets are becoming focal points in interior design. In 2026, you can expect stylish matte black finishes, metallic designs and smart systems that encourage responsible water consumption.

7. Open kitchens. These designs maximize space and encourage socializing. Open kitchens often feature multifunctional islands, builti n appliances and low-maintenance materials like porcelain and quartz. Want to refresh your decor in celebration of the new year? Your local retailers have everything you need, from high-quality materials to a wide range of accessories and sustainable furniture. Plus, buying local helps support the economy and keeps jobs in your community.
