Hey can you collab with Brittany Vasseur this year?

[@fashionforwardmom]

So funny I have sage green walls now and I am redoing my cabinets and I painted them a swiss coffee and a very muted blue/gray color I can't remember the name of the blue but I am painting my walls repose gray so tired of the green lol. We bought our home last year and I loved the green but it is time for it to go lol. I also painted all of my interior doors and exterior doors black. In the main living space you see the front door, back door and two bedroom doors it is a small space so the black really pops and makes it feel more designed to me. Thanks for sharing and green is my fav color but I have used it forever and I am moving towards blues now so guess I will not be on trend yet again lol.

I’m here for the green! I was totally thinking green for my living room this year.

[@paulbillingham6769]

As a painter and decorator with 30yrs experience, I have to say I was so impressed, and really related to this video. Some great nuggets of advice to be found here from Kristen.

[@renabale1541]

The sage green is so beautiful. I love colours that reflect nature.

[@amyrine1978]

Happy to hear smaller spaces are on trend. Love my 1960s home with walls. It's relaxing to be in quiet space.

[@micahmccann-moina2943]

I love the pop of sage or jewel tone on the door and in small spaces in the house.

[@roseannepryor4068]

I’m so glad Traditional Style is back! So inviting and cozy! The modern minimalist style always felt cold to me, like being in a Hospital 😱

[@phylliseckhardt8515]

Me too! I really do not like the modular sofas, big splashy modern art nothing displayed like BOOKS and curated art and beautiful accents! Big white boxy houses made of cement and MILES of glass..looks like a Bank or an Ins office Lobby! I want a home! I just WAITED for this trend to wane..and thank goodness it has!

[@lisaryherd4685]

So good to hear that traditional styling is coming back in, that’s definitely my favorite. It’s also good to see more color in design trends!!!

Enjoyed the video. I’m in the boomer generation. Its interesting that traditional decor is coming back. To me it was always about quality, comfort, lighting and doing what appeals to your aesthetic. I love mixing traditional with modern, like abstract art over a beautiful wood chest. Creamy white walls with an Oushak rug. Also its nice to have some open spaces and some more private.

[@dianegibbs3716]

[@judibyrne5839]

I just finished painting my living room and dining room October Mist and I love it

[@loriwald9532]

I feel much better after watching this video. 50 years old and never really decorated or considered design styles or interior decorating. I feel in love with the gray/cream/soft beige colored look and decided that even though I liked the new recommended paints, I didn’t want to fully commit. I’m pretty sure I read that accent walls are “out” but I might just do one accent wall of color and the rest a soft cream. That way i can easily repaint one wall for a new look. It will be fun to pick out a few coordinating accent colors to make the green pop a bit.

[@water-sorb7899]

I painted my living area sage green 12 years ago and I still love it today. It is a beautiful "neutral" color that goes with all kinds of colors like artwork. It feels like bringing the outside in.... Love your chanel!

[@EM-mn3nz]

I love dark floors but I’ve always thought those blue gray mismatch floors were soooo ugly. I’m glad they’ll be on their way out lol. I’m glad the traditional style is coming back too. It feels so timeless and cozy imo. I love the closed off floor plan as well. I think I’ll always prefer an open kitchen and main living area bc it’s so nice for get togethers and stuff but everything else more divided would be nice.

[@karlamax3]

I really enjoy your videos they’re very relaxing to watch and listen to. you do a 👏🏽 job giving advice🥰

[@sl6909]

Remodeled my home in 2020 and went with 7 1/2” white oak flooring. Our house is also older with beautiful wall panels, archways and pocket doors. Went with Simply White on the doors and drift of mist on the paneled walls throughout the entire house. Glad to see I made the right choices from your video and hearing what’s coming in trend for 2022. I get compliments on my flooring all the time and yes, they are easy to clean and just make the room light and airy.

[@rodneydecoster318]

I’ve gutted my house and am in the process of a rebuild and have incorporated all these “trends” and I’m very happy I chose 2022 to do it cause I’m on board with all of it, right up my street. 👏🏼👏🏼👏🏼👏🏼👏🏼

I have had dark floors, light floors, and even mahogany reddish toned floors. Dark espresso floors are my favorite no matter my current design. I feel like they ground the room and provide contrast, depth, and warmth. I have three shedding dogs (yellow, chocolate and black) and these floors do not show any more "dirt" than any of my others. I will stick to them.

I’m with you on everything except for doing away with the dark floors, although they do show tracking more than lighter ones. Dark floors provide a better contrast to light walls.

My mom renovated her apartment a few years ago. The light wood floors are the best option. I helped her pick a light oak with slight yellow undertones it goes with all types of furniture and doesn't show alot of dirt. Light wooden floors also makes the space open and airy feel.

We added a downstairs bedroom in 2008 and painted it a sage green, my husband’s idea! That room is the most soothing in the entire house!

I much prefer to have designated rooms for designated purposes.

I love traditional homes, versus open plans. As long as the rooms are not as tight and narrow as they used to be. I am not a blue/ green person but sage is one of those colors, on trend or not, that is so relaxing. Glad to see the end of the cold greys. Great video!

[@henriikkak2091]

Yesss! I put in oak parquet floors because oak is the one wood tone that I never ever tire of. It looks best paired with sage green walls or even muddy earth tones. Navy is good, as are classic black and white.

I agree. I think darker wood floors anchor a light color palette of white/creamy white cabinetry and light-colored walls, otherwise the room looks too “white”.

Silver Sage was the signature color for Restoration Hardware for many years; I don't know if it still is or not, but it was 18 years ago when I painted most of my downstairs Silver Sage. :-) I love it so much. It is remarkably neutral, and it takes on different hues based on the ambient light.

Great video. I'm a fan of wall moulding. I'm planning to add it to my front and back entrances along with accenting walls in my living room, dining room, and owner's bedroom. We have creamy white kitchen cabinets with taupe, brown, and cream granite countertops. Our plan is to add a dark brown, matte backsplash and paint the backside of the kitchen island a similar deep brown. We moved into a builder-grade townhome last year, so I want to personalize our space. Great suggestions. I enjoy watching your videos.

[@amandavalpey1521]

I think you are on point with all of your design trends advice. Thank you so much for the great video! The only one I would push back a little on, not because it’s not on trend, but because I think it’s risky, is the floors. I totally agree that dark, dark floors are out, however, the sand colored floors that you are recommending could potentially be risky. They are on trend now(and beautiful!), but they will not always be. As someone who just refinished and added more hardwood to our entire house, I can say with 100% certainly, I will never do that again. It was such an ordeal. I struggled with the color so much, and I LOVE(!!!) the light, sandy colored floors that are on trend. However, I know that look will go out as fast as it came in, so I opted to choose a historic color. Although it’s darker than I wanted, I am hoping in the long run, it will always be relevant and never look dated.🤞🏽 Floors are such a huge project and investment, so they are kind of a one and done project, so you’ve got to go timeless. Just my two cents. 😄

[@myrtlebeachsara]

I have the same opinion, I feel the ultra light are going to leave as fast as they came. Dark floors are classic, I think a safe color is a midpoint that's slightly darker than it is light.

[@nellymatias143]

Ladies thanks for the input . I’m about to be remodeling my Home and thought about dark wood floors with white walls but was disappointed when she said they were not in, not sure what to do now. Not a big fan of those light color floors 😫
