The year 2020 is about to begin. Time for Zoofy to take a closer look at the 2020 living trends. Last weekend we celebrated the arrival of Saint Nicholas, but you know how quickly these things go. Before you know it, you're in the new year. Zoofy looks ahead to the living trends of 2020. And we're happy to do so, because our craftsmen will help you to realise all your living wishes. At Zoofy, we not only have a great deal of help with home improvement, we also have a feel for interior design trends, which we're more than happy to share with you. You'd better be prepared for the latest home decoration trends for 2020, right? Get inspiration or ideas here, or check out Biano.nl for the best interior design articles. In this blog, you'll find the 2020 living trends for every style. We've already written a blog for you about the coolest interior design trends for summer 2019. Many of the home decoration trends that we have seen grow last year will also continue in the home decoration trends of 2020. The common denominator in all living trends is the use of plants, sustainability, consciousness and nature.
Living trend 1. Sustainability
Living in the city is becoming increasingly popular and we live in ever smaller spaces. In the cities, we see the sustainability and awareness trend explode. This is expressed in more and more people becoming flexitarian, vegetarian or even vegan. This indicates that consumers are becoming increasingly aware of what they consume. You can also see this in the purchase of furniture. Thrift stores, second-hand goods or furniture made from recycled materials made inroads in 2019, but we will continue to see this home furnishing trend in 2020. Have your vintage picture frames hung by a handyman, or go DIY. Sustainable living has another benefit: it's good for your wallet. For that reason alone, this is one trend in 2020 you won't want to be left behind.
Home trend 2. Think green
As we walked around the vtwonen fair with our partner vtwonen, this trend became clear: in 2020, plants in the home remain a trend. The addition of plants can do wonders for your interior. Not only do they radiate warmth and cosiness, they also ensure better air quality in your home. Especially large plants like the Monstera or the Bird of Paradise plant will be present in many interiors in 2020. Green combines well with earthy tones or different types of wood, but also thrives in a black-and-white interior. No green fingers? Or do you sometimes forget to water the plants? Not only real green wins the home trend market, but also cotton balls or Pampas plumes are increasingly seen as decoration in homes. Decorating with plants gives your interior a fresh boost.
Home trend 3. Getting smart
In 2020, technological gadgets in our homes will help us to furnish them as efficiently as possible. These technological changes do not have to get in the way of the green and sustainable living trend. This home improvement trend manifests itself, for example, in the purchase of solar panels or other smart home equipment. This makes our lives easier, and saves money at the same time. An example of this is the purchase of smart LED lamps or the Nest Learning Thermostat. This smart thermostat gradually gets to know your lifestyle better and better. It learns itself when you are at home and when you need to heat up. This way, very little energy is lost.
