Design trends are constantly changing. Keeping up with the rapid shifts is one of the things designers do best. They take time to study and understand the core of modern design trends and find ways to implement them in any space. However, a good designer will sway clients who can’t redesign away from fads and towards more timeless designs. Why? Because your average Jane and Joe can’t keep up with the Kardashians when it comes down to the cash flow.
The ultimate question you should ask yourself is this: will I like it in 5 years? Although following a design trend can gather a lot of attention, is it something you see yourself utilizing long-term? From wood paneling and tile countertops to floral couches draped in lace, ask yourself what fits your style, function, and budget best.
