Ready to revamp your interior design?

It’s a new year — and the perfect time to give your home a new look.

But how do you do that while ensuring your property still looks on-trend and marketable should you decide to sell it? It’s all about choosing the right projects: ones that have mass appeal and are smart long-term investments.

If you’d like to give your home an update this year, here are five interior design trends you may want to focus on.

Textured Walls and Ceilings: Forget just giving your walls a new coat of paint. What about giving them a new feel too? According to design professionals, things like wood paneling, crown molding and decorative plaster finishes are going to be big in the coming years.

Wellness Areas: Making your home more conducive to rest and relaxation will never get old. Consider adding a deep soaking tub, a meditation corner or a steam shower. They’re updates that will hold value for a long time.

Throwback Accents: Touches of retro and vintage are always a great way to add class to a space. Hit up your local thrift or antique store for one-of-a-kind items that will make a statement in your home.

Mix-and-Match Furnishings: Gone are the days when furniture and decor needed to have the same palette. Designers say today’s rooms look best when they’re mixed and matched — think varied textures and patterns as well as bold, contrasting colors.

Sustainability: Working more sustainable materials into your home can make it more efficient and reduce its environmental footprint. Consider using reclaimed wood, recycled subway tile or bamboo for materials, and think about adding solar panels or new windows to reduce nonrenewable energy use.
