8 Furniture Trends to Look Out for in 2026

No Comments



Reinforcing this trend, several new design collaborations with heritage wallcovering and fabric houses made splashes at the market. For example, Morris & Co.’s new The Unfinished Works collections, a collaboration with The Huntington museum in Southern California, was celebrated at Woodbridge Furniture. A few designs are featured here, including a wallpaper border. (Yes, these are back too!) Liberty of London collaborated with Hickory Chair to reimagine some of its patterns, which looked beautiful covering Hickory Chair’s classic designs. And Pooky Lighting introduced a colorful collection of shades with English textile company GP&J Baker, founded in 1884.

10 Friendly Furniture Pieces for a Comforting Home

No Comments



Our passion for design can lead us to choose the fabulous over the friendly, and, while nothing can compete with a midcentury Danish chair or a classic Eames lounger, there is room in our homes for more anonymous but no less appealing pieces. Think friendly items of furniture — tables, chairs, dressers and more — that have been handed down through the family, picked up at a thrift store or purchased new. They may have been repainted or reupholstered time and again, through a lifetime of love and use. Comfort is key, and sociability is central — make friends with these easygoing treasures.

1. Leather Armchair

Once the classic choice for a gentlemen’s club, and often enhanced with a velvet-covered cushion, leather armchairs have been soothing our cares away for centuries. Find a vintage piece online or buy a newly made classic. The leather will wear beautifully, taking on a rich patina and becoming softer every time you sit.

2. Farmhouse Table

Tables are often large-scale pieces and can dominate a space, but while a strong-lined modern design will often stand out, a wooden farmhouse table will always fit in, looking warm and inviting. Flank it with a mix of design-classic chairs in lucite for a fantastic, up-to-date look.

3. Wooden Chest of Drawers

A simple chest of drawers in stripped wood with traditional brass drawer knobs is a friendly addition to any bedroom. Here one doubles as a bedside table, complete with a lamp, a candle and fresh flowers.

4. Chesterfield

The chesterfield, with its rounded arms and buttoned upholstery, is a timeless sofa design that puts everyone at ease. Often covered in leather, a chesterfield can take on a softer, less gentlemen’s-club look when upholstered in a pale cotton or rich velvet instead.

5. Hutch

This piece of freestanding kitchen storage has found new popularity in many countries, gracing the kitchens of many a cottage and farmhouse. In this home, though, it’s obvious how a much-loved hutch can find a place in more contemporary settings too. Painted a bold shade and sitting in a neutral modern scheme, it looks right at home.

6. Footstool

No evening on the sofa is complete without a sizable footstool on which to rest tired feet. This classic buttoned design has a contemporary twist, thanks to blue upholstery.

7. Classic Bed Frame

A traditional iron bed frame manages to look both romantic and comforting at the same time. This style of bed has been soothing us to sleep for generations and, when finished in white, as here, will not compete with other design elements in the room.

8. Sideboard

A home to everything from napkins to board games, and with space on top for displaying favorite objects, a sideboard is an indispensable and much-cherished addition to a dining room or living space. While midcentury designs look streamlined and sleek, a vintage version with chunkier lines will have a more friendly feel. Upcycling an old sideboard with a coat of soft gray paint can quickly transform it, turning this hardworking piece into a family heirloom.

9. Vintage Double Sinks

What could be more friendly than a double sink so you can wash hands or clean teeth alongside a family member? Search for a reclaimed marble-topped piece like this, or take inspiration and mount two basins and classic brass faucets in an old table for a vintage, friendly feel.

5 Furniture Trends for 2025

No Comments



But square accents add visual tension. There’s a key difference this time around in how manufacturers are styling the curvaceous pieces in their collections. While larger furniture pieces were mostly rounded, they were paired with sharper accent pieces and accessories featuring checkered, gridded, plaid and tumbling-block patterns to create refreshing contrast.

This vignette from Four Hands illustrates the trend beautifully with its combination of square and curved patterns and shapes. Notice the rounded set of Bennett chairs, which are from the Texas company’s newly expanded collection with designer extraordinaire Amber Lewis.

Incidentally, nested or multilevel occasional tables like those pictured here seemed to appear in every collection at the market.

Other patterns to watch: Tapestry-like florals and tribal patterns had an even larger presence this season than they did at the spring show, and stripes (especially thin stripes) were big too. But designers seem gleeful about a return to pattern in general, so expect a lot more of it in upholstery, drapery and wallcoverings — often layered on top of one another and even on larger furniture pieces — as we head into 2025.
