Probably our favorite trend for this year, personal belongings are sitting in the spotlight! Plus, there’s no better place to display those important things than shelving! If you’re looking for a stylish way to put these items on display, we definitely recommend our LED-lit floating shelves – this is the best way to make your personal belongings the star of the show.

#2: “Organic” Displays, Shapes, & Materials

We’re all for this trend – plants and organic materials just make any space more inviting! Plus, with many of us still working from home, bringing the outdoors inside has its mental health perks! From leaf-shaped pottery to greens and natural browns on walls, choosing “organic” vibes will have your home rocking the 2023 vibes we’ve seen so far.

Last year saw ooh-ing and ah-ing over marble – marble everywhere. However, this year seems to be trending towards deep, rich wood grains and vertical paneling. You can even use different colors in the same room: painted white wood, dark wood, and medium-brightness wood. Don’t forget the ceilings, too! 

Plus, our Aksel Wood Floating Shelves come in a variety of drool-worthy wood grains to complement your space!

According to some sources, your “farmhouse” open kitchen shelving might finally be fleeing from the spotlight. While this might be a bit sad, changing things up to meet the trends might not actually be that hard. What’s up-and-coming now is a singular, long shelf that sits above your counter space. 

Photos of this trend usually show the singular shelf as an extension of the backsplash – something that looks truly stunning and makes the space feel much larger. If this doesn’t give you enough space for your things, pot racks, hanging fruit baskets, and more will fill the space nicely!

#5: Your “Personal Style!”

Our last interior design tip for you is to keep it “you!” Anything can be stylish in the eyes of others if you’ve put time, energy, and lots of thought into it. Your living room might not be the epitome of “2023 trends,” but if it’s a space that you thoroughly enjoy, that’ll be enough for everyone else to appreciate it! Plus, trends come and go – your style doesn’t!
