Over the years, designers have drawn inspiration from the things that have always been present as the design pendulum swings from minimalism to maximalism. Tracing back to roots, design choices from materials to wall finishes and even furniture were purposeful and aligned with the cultural opinions of the masses.
The avant-garde is a cutting-edge, artistic style that defies conventional style genres and is frequently characterised by its unique and audacious designs, which turn interiors into works of art. The term “avant-garde” refers to a sophisticated design approach that is constantly in conversation with the setting, scale and proportions, design brief, and, most crucially, the users of the place.
This frequently entails arranging stunning elements in rooms using wall panels, pieces of art, furniture, or even an architectural feature. Shalini Chandrashekar, Principal and Director of Taliesyn, discussed several design trends to watch for in 2023 in an interview with HT Lifestyle. These include:
Materiality
reverting to natural materials and finishing techniques that highlight the ageing of the materials in their natural state. Modern materials like coloured cement, where red pigments are added to the admixture to render vernacular treatments, have reinterpreted red oxide.
Furniture
Purchasing old-fashioned furniture and updating the old-fashioned furniture to fit the current trends in room design. Retro furnishings provide nostalgia to a space and evoke memories from the past.
Emotions
Retrofitting antique furniture and folk art into contemporary settings affects the residents’ emotions by introducing a layer of nostalgia and a historical narrative that goes back to our forefathers.
The following design trends were added to the list of things to watch out for in 2023 by Devika Khosla, Design Director of The Works Interiors:
Geometric play of form
These architectural and structural features may help define the new avant-garde in 2023.
Deep colours, high contrast and saturated hues
This year, the use of deep colour combinations will be viewed as a major trend for establishing mood in interior spaces. A highly saturated graphic wall accentuates the double-height contrast to the muted and neutral palette in our recently finished residential project in Gwalior.
Cutting-edge techniques
This year, a variety of designs will incorporate new and intriguing design features using cutting-edge techniques.
An element of surprise
When a lighting fixture or furniture piece is placed in opposition to the rest of the room, it creates an intriguing contrast in scale, material, and texture.
Any area can benefit from these striking pieces’ drama.
