According to interior designer Mikel Welch, the 90s will be the top design trend for 2024. We’re talking about forest green paints, decorative felt acoustic wall panels, arch hallway passages, and more. In this guide, we’ll cover the 90s style trends that have gone off and on and are finally settled as evergreen trends. Plus, we’ll talk about specific decor ideas that will let you realize the trendy looks of the 90s without spending a lot of time and money.
Why the sudden shift to 90s trends?
We, as humans, tend to be nostalgic. And the ongoing pandemic has made us long for the good old days. Going old-school with decor gives us the sense of safety, comfort, and reassurance we crave so much.
Additionally, all that extra time indoors has made us focus on our surroundings way too much. This is another reason why our brains are thinking of ways to have a major throwback and make our environment a quirky place to live in (and work from!).
90s Design Trends That Are Still in Style
Animal Prints
Remember the popular zebra and leopard prints? There’s a reason they’re still famous after all these years. These printed textiles can serve as excellent additions to pretty much any room in your commercial space. If you like printed designs, you could custom print your architectural felt wall panels/decorative wall panels; just tell us.
Wood Cabinets
Wood cabinets might appear too antique for your liking. That’s why you could mix it up a bit. Combine them with bright colors and a few other modern touches, and you’ll see the difference!
White countertops
Although animal prints were the trend back in the 90s, simple minimalistic designs were also very popular. White countertops, in particular, were in fashion and are still in style. Simple designs are always appealing.
Wicker furniture
Get transported back in time with some beautiful wicker furniture! This type of furniture will give your commercial space a unique, quaint look. We recommend you get some indoor plants to compliment your furniture or to complement our textured wall panels! If live plants are a lot of work, you could simply get some faux plants. They look real and barely need any maintenance. Woohoo!
Recliner sofas
These are available as sofas and armchairs. They’re the perfect way to destress, kick your feet up, and relax.
Inflatable furniture
Inflatable furniture is still very fashionable. They come in all kinds of colors and sizes and look good in any environment.
Blond wood floors
Another great item that complements our interior wall paneling! This design is being used more often in contemporary designs. We aren’t surprised. To match your wood floors, you could get some wood veneers for your walls.
Huge mirrors
How can huge mirrors ever run out of style? Oversized mirrors enhance the look of your commercial space and make it look more spacious and welcoming.
Decor Tips to Revamp Your Office
Use dividers. If you’ve got an open office environment, that’s awesome. Simply break up the spaces with room dividers. This creates a feeling of synergy in your workspace. Plus, it’s informal. So your employees are likely to feel freer to interact with one another. While we’re on the subject, how about you check out our sliding dividers? Add a bookshelf. Productivity increases when your employees look forward to work. What better way to ensure this than by adding a bookshelf to your workspace? Maybe place that bookshelf against our top-quality wood panels.
Even the things we read can influence us. So, you could consider placing some feel-good books that uplift your employees.
Place some flowers
Add some color to your commercial surroundings by incorporating some flowers. They also have a positive effect on mood. Plus, they smell good. These factors help improve employee productivity.
Incorporate funky furniture
Adding funky furniture is an awesome way to promote collaboration. This gives off an informal vibe, thereby encouraging employees to feel more comfortable in their surroundings. And we all know how our surroundings influence our mood.
Our decorative 3d modern wall panels can also help promote a more informal, welcoming vibe.
Have window views
It’s always nice to work with a view. Try to have large windows in your office and ensure you don’t cover the views with dark curtains. Light-colored curtains will make the space look warmer. And it will allow natural sunlight to enter the area.
Make it homely
Adding a homely element can make your employees feel more relaxed. Try to incorporate cushy seats in your office to ensure this. Even adding lamps that emit a warm glow makes your office look cozier, therefore making it feel like home.
Use quirky wall decor
Does a walled garden come to mind? Because that’s one way to add some beautiful wall decor. Another way is to add some murals to the walls or large fonts. And then, of course, there are our 3D decorative wall panels.
Create sound control solutions
Most workspaces are large. So they can hold several people who interact with one another. This makes it crucial to have walls that absorb sound. Our acoustic wall panels absorb sound and help deaden it too. We hope your workspace stands out with the help of our tips. Don’t forget to shop from our wide range of decorative wall panels to add that special something to your commercial space.
Incorporate some board games
Beyond helping your employees destress and disengage from the pressures of work, board games also help enhance your office appeal. They serve as an item of decoration too.
