Rising interior trends of newstalgia
By finding a new persepective to the old, you can refresh the atmosphere of your space effortlessly and sustainably.
Adding a feeling of newness to your space doesn’t necessarily require a huge renovation or completely new interior pieces. As we are aiming to be more sustainable with our interior design and celebrate our uniqueness, new interior pieces are combined with nostalgic styles. This is called newstalgia: the trend of mixing second hand furniture and vintage pieces with modern interior decor.
Sometimes smaller changes, like painting a wall or giving your piece of furniture a new colour, can make a huge difference in changing the mood of your space – on top of being the more sustainable choice. Mindful design choices create a unique and personal ambiance for any room.
You don’t need to buy new things to make your space feel new. Shop your own home by switching the places of your decorative ornaments or change the way you have organised your shelves. Add calm lightness to your walls with Y456 Coconut or brown deepness with a hint of red with L478 Kestrel.
From our Timeless Translucent collection, you can find subtle colours for your chosen wooden surface, for example 241A Dark Woods.
There are no rules to newstalgia, as it encourages you to be playful and flexible. The chosen space can change with you over time. Combine your vintage furniture with a wall freshly painted in the beautiful green tone V449 Jade or darker M442 Fjord, and let your personal touch show.
Nostalgic colours
Newstalgia can also be about using nostalgic colours – even going a bit retro. Rich colours that put a smile on your face and bring up happy memories are perfect when you want to participate in the newstalgia trend. Choose L396 Beeswax for your space when you're aiming for a cozy and full-bodied tone of orange and yellow.
Be bold, avoid clutter
When you combine new pieces with older ones in your space – whether it’s about more mindful design or participating in the newstalgia trend – it can easily become overwhelming. Keep functionality in mind and use planning as a tool to avoid clutter, but also forget perfection. Make the space feel refreshed and personal. There’s no right or wrong – only the atmosphere you want to create.
