Although I follow my own taste when it comes to decorating by adding the old and the new, I still consider the shifting trends put in place for each year, to gauge just where the industry is headed. For example:

Layering the old and the new is in – which is a concept I absolutely love – and feel should be the trend every year.

This one is a shocker but completely understandable – the more the world becomes colder and darker, the more mankind searches for warmth and security and the industrial design is making its way out apparently
