Cafe Interiors – What’s Hot In 2016?

If you want your cafe to stand out from the crowd it needs to do so for all the right reasons, especially when it comes to your décor. So with this in mind and as we’re one whole week into 2016, I thought that now was a good a time as any to take a close look at what’s hot in the interior design world right now!

Colour

The emphasis on colour this year is definitely on subtlety rather strong bold colours, so pastel shades are most certainly in. According to Pantone, the top colours this season include gentle hues such as such as rose, peach, and lilac grey. If you’re after more masculine colours then iced coffee and limpet shell blue are also very much en vogue.

Style

There are several styles that are hot right now and one of those is the feeling of serenity and calmness. This understandably echoes the softer pastel shade colours, so plenty of greenery from lush vegetation such as hanging plants and larger shrubs gives a great on-trend look. Another style that’s big for 2016 is retro. You’ve only got to look at the 70’s fashion that’s gracing the stores right now to realise that anything to do with the 70’s is in and that includes interior styling. Opt for chocolate browns, sage greens, and burnt oranges to create that retro 70’s cafe look.

Materials

Again to follow on with the gentle, spa-like theme, natural materials are so now. So in with materials such as cork, marble, wood, stone, and copper and out with man-made, heavily manufactured materials. However there is one exception – polypropylene. It seems that in 2016 we can’t get enough of it. Polypropylene chairs, polypropylene tables, and even polypropylene crockery will all be making a huge appearance this year.

Items

if there’s one type of item that’s set to epitomise 2016 and that’s artisan goods. From local pottery or sculptures, to tassels, crochet, and macramé, artisan is the hottest trend. For your cafe why not consider a Mongolian lambskin pouffe or a Moroccan rug next to a wooden coffee table? Or how about selling artisan foods such as jams and cakes?
