Luxe | Ahead of the Curve
East Coast
Atlanta Market is always looking ahead at what’s new and next in the home design and décor space. Here, four interior designers and “Ahead of the Curve” panelists share their top 2022 design trends along with products best representing them that can be sourced in Atlanta – in-person and online.
Ahead of the Curve at Atlanta Market
Interior Designers Evan Millard, Lia Shin, April Tomlin and Ashley Ross explore emerging trends and new product inspirations at Atlanta Market in partnership with Luxe Interiors + Design.
SIMPLICITY SPEAKS VOLUMES
“I’m noticing an increased desire to see objects in the most refined and purified ways, using palettes of white and neutrals that swirl with botanicals and are infused with natural materials. The perfect blend of the inner and outer world captures the essence of this moment. It’s also an approach that can sway traditional or contemporary.”
Shin’s Atlanta Market Anticipation:
“I love to shop at JDouglas every market, for the amazing lines it represents. The showroom always looks so polished!”
VARIETY IN THE VISUAL
“ Visual texture evokes curiosity, encouraging the viewer to interact with something beyond the sense of sight. After 18-plus months of socially distancing ourselves, I am excited to discover this trend that makes me want to get up close and personal with design! I’m seeing this in cane backing, hair-on-hides in the most unusual places and a sculptural approach to everyday furniture—that is no longer limited to accessories.”
Ross’ Atlanta Market Anticipation:
“This will be my first AmericasMart event, and I am thrilled to visit new showrooms, but I’m equally excited to find out if Leftbank Art carries the party over from High Point to Atlanta!”
SANCTUARY IS IN
“Now, more than ever, your home needs to be your haven. Whether it be a functional nook where your children are inspired to both work and play, an outdoor living space that is an extension of your home or a peaceful spot to which you can retreat for some much-needed solace at the end of a busy day, being intentional about creating spaces that speak to your needs and designs is essential.”
BOLD POPS OF COLOR
“Go big or go home, I say! Bold pops of color are making an appearance everywhere. From case goods to lighting, splashes of brighter shades are making a statement in every facet of the industry. One of my personal favorite ways to add it into a space is through lighting. Not only is it an attention grabber, but also, it can act as a piece of art. It’s like a two-for-one special!”
Millard’s Atlanta Market Anticipation:
“I’m looking forward to visiting the showrooms for Chelsea House and Currey & Company, but I also always stop by Dixon Rye in Westside Ironworks when in Atlanta.”
