Whether you're furnishing an entire house, looking to refresh the decor in your dining area, or turning your basement into a man-cave, you'll find a world of options at your local furniture store. The wide selection on display can be confusing, however, so prepare yourself by considering the latest furniture and interior decorating trends. Check out our list and pick something you'd like to try in your home:
Bohemian style: The popular clothing style has crossed over to home fashions. Relaxed, rumpled textures and a mixture of hues and patterns are hallmarks of the boho aesthetic.
Artisan or industrial metallic elements: Choose furniture with metal accents, focusing on hand-worked or aged appearance. Check your local furniture store for coffee tables with metal wheels or shelving that combines natural wood and metal. Consider vintage-look metal stools for your breakfast counter.
Today's wood furniture: Remain connected to the natural world--even inside your home--by choosing a birch entertainment center or bamboo home office desk. Antiqued, roughly textured wood can be ideal for your entryway table or dining room buffet. Also interesting right now are accent walls covered in weathered wood. Accomplish this look more easily by choosing an oversized, reclaimed wood headboard and bedroom set.
Island life: Transform everyday living into an exotic adventure by bringing tropical rainforest colors into your home. Consider choosing a neutral living room sofa or sectional, and add bright orange and green throw pillows to create an island feel. If you prefer a beachy, relaxed atmosphere instead, choose a recliner or side chairs in bright or deep blue shades.
Going gray in a good way: Gray is a modern neutral color choice for shelving, bookcases and kitchen cabinets, as well as soft seating like sofa sleepers and reclining sofas. In slate or charcoal gray, oversized floor tiles and fireplace surrounds help create a sophisticated, high-end vibe in your home.
Outdoor rooms: Extend your living space outside by choosing substantial, cushioned wicker chairs or wrought iron and wood patio tables and chairs. Outdoor rugs offer you options to add color and pattern to your porch, patio or deck.
