I was a professional interior designer in LA for many years. Although I retired in 2017 and left California I still like to see what's trending currently. I cannot tell you how happy I am to see a movement toward less sterile looking environments, which I never felt were very welcoming. I always encouraged my clients to incorporate some type of large natural element within the space; sometimes they'd take my advice, sometimes they wouldn't. Thank you for this wonderful update.

Will always love white kitchens, so fresh, light never tire of them

I love warm wood in a kitchen.

What I have found is when I get ideas on decorating I have an extremely hard time finding the items I need to bring it all together. About three years later I find that what I envisioned and pulled off is now in style and I find pieces easily. But by then I am off to a new design having problems finding what I need.

Normally, I don't strictly adhere to what's in and what's out but I am so glad to see the frigid coldness of the institutional/industrial look go out! Being in a coastal place, I love a tropical look. I never liked the cane look, wicker, yes, but cane no. It looks like you have speakers everywhere. I had to get a new cooktop and dishwasher a couple years ago and had a choice of black, white, or stainless steel. I absolutely hate the look of being in a restaurant kitchen and hope that look disappears soon, and never ever comes back. Stainless steel is a fingerprint magnet and not as easy as one thinks to keep it clean. I absolutely hated my black cooktop and steel dishwasher. It reminds me of the current car color trend of black, white, gray, and maroon. Ugh. Regardless of what colors are trending, I still like the beachy pastels. And good riddance to the sanitized monotone look of all white. The other look I love is the warm colors like terra cotta, and a Spanish feel to a room! When someone walks into my place I want them to be comfortable, welcome, and at ease, not like they are walking into a room straight out of the latest modern architecture magazine. Actually I prefer the colors of 2023 better than what's coming up next year, so I won't be changing much. I enjoyed your video, thanks!

I hope my home IS dated! Most of my furniture is at least 90 years old. Actually made from REAL wood and natural fabrics. Most of my my mom's furniture was about 400 yeats old!

Glad I don't follow trends aside from the occasional inexpensive piece.

I always have all white kitchen,, only the counter is not white and I am more than happy with it ...

I have always done my own thing when it comes to decorating my home. After all i am the one living in it. 😁 but this was interesting to listen to. I say decorate with what makes you feel good. Use common sense and look to traditional ideals that never go out of style. After all it is your own space and should suit your tastes and likes.

I had no idea that caned furniture was a recent design thing. I haven't bought new furniture in years, so I guess I wasn't noticing the trends. Much of my furniture is vintage (such as a Duncan Pyfe dining room table), and I didn't need to redecorate anything. :-) I did notice the greys, were much better than the avocado green and gold and orange of the 70s, but I did grow tired of all.the.grey. Happily, I didn't need to paint anything during the reign of the grey, so I was safe. :-)

It's not new. But like I said in the video, it was being used EVERYWHERE for a while. Nothing is new. We can't reinvent the wheel. But trends can lead us towards new ways of doing old things. That's why I love classic details and furniture. They never go out of style.

Many of us simply don't care what's in or out-----or what someone says is in or out. We lead real lives, have jobs, care for family and loved ones, often with serious illnesses, and just don't waste any thoughts on whether our home is outdated or current in style. And, what's in today is out next week........so who cares what you say or tell others to do in decorating their home. Do your own thing, be happy, save money, and enjoy life.

Hi Susan... interior designers help clients create their dream home. They actually pay me for advice because they don't want to waste money. See how that works? So yes... your home should look like your own style. And that may change one day to the next. But that doesn't mean the interior design world is bad or silly or not important. But thanks for watching this trends video even though you don't care about what's going out of style. :)

Every industry wants you to buy more and more often. It's not just interior design. Look at how cars change over time. More features become standard features because they force to you to spend more on the car. That's just how the economy works! It's not a bad thing... improvements can be great. It's just a matter of knowing the difference between what you need versus what you want.

Get ahead of the other channels by discussing inexpensive changes we can make in our rooms without looking “same same.” It’s not up to me to keep the home furnishings or automotive industries afloat.

My cabinets are painted white. As they are in good condition and functional, I decided not to replace them but just to give them a fresh coat of paint.

I don't know how stylish it is (or is not), but we like it.

We are thinking of doing a slatted wall to one side of our living room in our remodel home. We want it so we can hide a closet door that faces the open living room. Will this be something that will look dated shortly ?

Hmm… I used to cane chairs for a living for private customers and antique shops…and I’m hyper alert to any decor that features caning, danish cord, reed, etc…and I have to admit I never saw one piece of caned furniture in the past two years in or on any interior design venue….ever with the trends leaning to reintroducing modern furniture styles that originally featured it quite heavily. How odd…….
