1. Metal

In 2026, metal continues to dominate interiors. Its geometric lines and its shifting reflections reinvent domestic aesthetics, making rooms both modern and sculptural.

2. Domestic sculptures

Theatrical and expressive, the strong pieces of the season adopt an assertive decorative language. They go beyond their utilitarian function to become true object sculptures that structure the space.

3. Undulations

Essential this year, curves, waves and undulations bring movement to interiors. Around a mirror or a velvet bench, they subtly evoke Art Deco, its asymmetries and its reinterpreted geometric patterns.

4. Retro glam

Among the trends of 2026, the retro glam style stands out through the combination of the aesthetic codes of the 60s 70s and contemporary elements. It is recognised in particular by colours such as burgundy, forest green and golden copper shades.


Materials and shine

Velvet, lacquers and metallic finishes bring a glamorous touch without excess. These reflective materials create a sophisticated atmosphere that transforms the living room into a true style stage.


Dare contrasts

Retro glam is ideal for expressing one’s personality. By combining dark tones and luminous accents, one obtains a theatrical and refined interior where luxury remains accessible and warm.

5. Noble materials and pronounced textures

In 2026, materials aim to be authentic, visible, and sometimes even raw. Solid wood makes a strong comeback in all its variations: sculptural tables, solid doors, mirror frames, and even checkerboard parquet flooring emblematic of the 70s. Elm burl, recognizable by its interwoven grain, establishes itself as the star of refined furniture. It appears on headboards, sideboards and tabletops, where it brings depth and brilliance.

Floors fully contribute to this search for authenticity: provincial terracotta tiles, Burgundy stone or oak checkerboard warm up the space and reaffirm the taste for the genuine. In the living room as in the dining room, free form tables gradually replace rigid silhouettes. Decoration is no longer a simple style exercise, but a new way of living: more flexible, more intuitive, less constrained.

6. Key colour: plum

The colour plum establishes itself as the emblematic shade of 2026. It brings elegance and sophistication. Intense without being dark, it reveals its full potential when balanced with rich textures and carefully designed lighting. Ideal for the backdrop of a TV system, backlit niches or full height panels, plum creates interiors with strong identity when paired with satin brass, velvet or dark stones.

  • Recommended palette: plum, forest green velvet, satin brass and dark marbles
  • Psychological effect: prestige, elegance, introspective depth
  • Mistake to avoid: avoid covering all the walls in a small poorly lit space, at the risk of visually weighing down the room.

7. Nature

In 2026, decoration fully adopts Botanical Maximalism, a trend in which nature is no longer just a decorative accessory: it becomes the guiding thread of interior design. Far beyond simple plants placed here and there, this style envelops the space with lush botanical patterns, organic textures and deep colours inspired by dense forests and undergrowth.

Panoramic jungle wallpapers, oversize foliage, floral textiles – everything works together to create complete immersion. These elements interact with living materials such as rattan, burnt bamboo, terracotta or natural fibres. XXL plants (monstera, banana tree, kentia palm) become true botanical sculptures, bringing verticality and presence.

This style gives rooms enveloping warmth, strong personality and an almost vibrating energy. Each space then transforms into a sensual, immersive and living refuge, where nature expresses itself without filter and without restraint.

In summary: 2026 celebrates expressive, sensory and confident interiors, where noble materials, deep colours and generous nature redesign our living spaces with boldness and sophistication.
