Rattan furniture: Out. ❌
Statement walls: In. ✅

Try maximizing your curb appeal and home value with these 2022 home design + decor trends:

  • Statement walls are here to stay. Think: shiplap, subway tile, and bright accent walls.
  • Your guests (and the planet) will thank you when you incorporate outdoor spaces and eco-friendly landscaping.
  • Neutral exterior colors + natural finishes provide a welcoming curb appeal to any home. Gray, stained wood, and beige are frontrunners this year.*
