10 CURVED FURNITURE

Saving the best for last in my ID forecast is curved furniture—the latest trend taking over furniture design as we head into 2022.

A personal favorite for the past three years or so, curved furniture took off mostly last year reviving a timeless mid-century trend.

Safe to say that hard, strict lines and layouts will be left in 2021 as people look more into softer interiors and organic shapes to bring softness to a space. There is a sense of freedom and fluidity or how I often say it, flair, that curved furniture gives in a space.

People are looking more at furniture pieces that give a sense of warmth, more like a piece that embraces you. These are complemented with softer fabric textures which are likewise part of a continuing trend in 2022.

This trend of rounded edges will continue to be an important part of the design vocabulary next year and will be seen not only in furniture but in other details such as mirror frameworks, archways, door openings and other cabinetry works.
