Interior design expert Zara O'Hare from Land of Rugs has said several popular trends are on their way out this year to make space for fresher, more sustainable options.
Zara also highlights a shift towards more natural tones as she added: "Instead of stark white, we're seeing soft creams and rustic beiges becoming more popular, particularly in kitchens.".
Referring to more popular wood finishings, she continued: "The trend of light woods like oak is giving way to deeper, neutral tones like walnut and cherry, which offer a more sophisticated feel".
Zara has explained that while there will always be a place for both light wood and brass, there are other finishes that are taking their place in the trends list.
Zara said: "Open kitchens, where everything is visible, will begin to fade out in favour of more practical, smaller 'prep' kitchens hidden away.".
