2022 Trends: Earth, Soil & Clay

By Ella St GeorgeFeb 17, 2022

Celebrating peace and love at home, our Earth, Soil & Clay trend brings influences from the 70s hippy era into the modern home. Defined by connection to the natural world, this trend embraces a natural earthy colour palette.

Inspired by the warm natural wood materials, presence of houseplants and unapologetic use of rust, ochre and green in 70s interior design, these organic materials and earthy colour choices are ever-calming for your interior. As such, featuring neutral tones, curved lines and natural textures, you can rely on this trend to add character to any scheme. Moreover, watch out for the arrival of mushroom shapes too. These subtly curved forms are set to be a huge inspiration in our interiors this year. Whatsmore, embracing the beauty of neutral colours with a laid-back luxe, this trend goes beyond earthy influence with a focus on recycled and reformed materials. Finally, see below to discover why the 70s earth lover trend is going to be your new favourite in 2022...
