Blog » The Neutral Home Trend Explained
Neutral home decor is a timeless trend that has been around for decades, and it’s easy to see why. Neutral colours are versatile and can be easily mixed and matched to create a variety of different looks, from modern and minimalist to traditional and cosy.
Neutral colours are those that don’t have a strong hue, such as white, black, beige, grey and brown.
They can be warm or cool depending on their undertones. For example, a warm beige might have a yellow or orange undertone, while a cool beige might have a blue or green undertone.
In terms of interior design, you’ll often see neutral tones in natural materials. Think: stone floors, oak doors, marble worktops and hardwood furniture.
There are countless YouTube videos themed around neutral homes. Additionally, the hashtag #NeutralHome has over 1 million dedicated Instagram posts (and counting).
There are many reasons why this trend is so popular, including versatility and ease of application. Studies also show our brains associate natural hues with serenity. This means we may turn to them when seeking to create a calm and tranquil space.
The neutral home trend also has roots in Scandinavian design and Japandi design. Two beloved design movements that combine peaceful hues with a practical lifestyle.
If you’re interested in the idea of a neutral home, start with these beginner’s tips:
Remember, the appeal of a neutral home lies in its enduring simplicity. Neutral colours are forgiving, accommodating and simple to style up in different ways. It’s this versatility that allows you to open up the possibilities and explore your interior design style.
It’s safe to say the neutral home trend has exploded over the last few years. But it hasn’t been without backlash.
Many social media users refer to the trend as an epidemic of ‘sad beige’ while many link neutral homes with the often unrealistic aesthetic video trend (soothing videos that make simple everyday tasks seem aspirational and luxurious).
So, how can we inject more personality into the neutral home trend while still retaining a sense of individuality and positivity? Try these fresh new takes:
Calming and comforting, warm neutrals are taking over from the cool greys that were popular in recent years. Colours like beige, oatmeal, and biscuit are perfect for creating a cosy and homely space.
Rustic, nature-inspired colours are also an emerging home decor trend. Opt for shades like terracotta, rust and sage green for a look that literally feels more down to earth.
This trend focuses on bringing the outdoors into your home. This can be done by adding plants, using natural materials like wood and stone and incorporating natural elements like sunlight and fresh air into your design. Interested in the concept? Read our biophilic design guide.
When buying doors for your neutral home, go for wooden tones. Oak doors, hardwood doors or pine doors are ideal choices. But the options don’t stop there. Inject cool tones with on-trend grey internal doors, brighten up darker corners with white doors or create an industrial-inspired, monochrome look with black heritage doors.
Neutral homes need plenty of natural light so don’t forget to consider your options when it comes to glazed doors. Sleek sliding doors provide a great way to connect with nature everyday while bifold doors allow you to make the most of your space and switch up your layout whenever you need to.
No matter what your personal interior design style is, it’s never been easier to create a neutral home that feels totally you. It’s as simple as experimenting with different colours and textures until you discover a look you love. Then, why not contact our team to order the perfect matching doors? Easy.
