Treat Your Home to the Hottest Interior Design Trends for 2010

As the proud owner of your first prestigious Mont’ Kiara property, it is a given that you will settle for nothing less than the best interior décor for your exclusive living space. What are the hottest interior designing trends for 2010 which will make your home shine like a star?

Modern Oriental – Embracing Traditional Roots

With the pursuit of material gains taking a backseat, 2010 sees a social trend of renewed interest in preserving and exploring one’s ancestry. As part of this return to the traditional roots, modern oriental design has been enthusiastically embraced as one of the hottest trends to flood Malaysian homes.

Modern Oriental designs inspired by the Eastern cultures of China, Japan, Vietnam, Thailand etc, seek to infuse East-oriented design elements into modern, clean and elegant lines to create a cohesive language. The clever use of oriental materials, ornaments and art work, blended with lush, oriental colours such as red and orange, brightens up the living surroundings and imbues an Asian exotic charm into the modern environment.

Mother Earth – Embracing Green Living

Inviting Mother Nature into the home through interior design is an exceptional way to breathe warmth, calm, purpose, and practicality into your home, while getting back to basics. Green living has been strongly embraced following the economic doldrums, as it can help to improve one’s health, fatten up the bank account, and ultimately, enhance the quality of life.

To achieve a Mother Earth concept and outdoor ambience within your home, it is ideal to use colours which reflect the Earth’s elements and its resources deriving from plants, mineral, and dirt, such as sky blue, dirt brown and jungle green. The use of natural elements such as wood, stone, and bamboo creates a soothing and spiritual living space which is in harmony with the surrounding nature and environment.

Bright and Bold - Embracing Hope and Optimism

To shake off the effects of the sour economy, the New Year is all about bright and bold design elements – the cheerier the colours, the better! It is time to herald the arrival of hope, joy and optimism into your home for 2010.

Funky retro hues, geometric shapes, simple floral patterns, colourful retro designs, and vintage elements – these are expected to take the spotlight in a home spruced up with a bright and bold theme.

A weak but recovering economy; a desire to lead a simple and green life; a renewed interest in the past; and a hope for the future – these have converged to create the hottest interior design trends for 2010 – elements you can implement in your Mont’ Kiara home for a maximum trend-setting impact.
