However, there are some aesthetic fads entering the fray which are providing inspiration to property owners who prefer to keep fashionable homes.

Decor has put an enormous emphasis on lighting, which is being used to create focal points out of specific furniture pieces. It's also being used as a therapeutic inclusion to the house, making use of hue to set mood. Every shade evokes a certain emotion, with blue evoking relaxation for example.

Due to the earthy tones so trendy in decor, walls are becoming increasingly neutral. While taupe and stones are fashionable, grey is the height of couture for walls.
