Even the most popular of styles can prove to be a short-lived trend.
Luckily, theres no need to regret previous design decisions or start from scratch.
Some things signature of this style can be salvaged.
We think that there are some features that will stay stylish, says interior designerStephanie James Goldman.
A farmhouse sink can be translated into any style.
The intentional mixing of old with new is what I feel truly defines modern farmhouse style, she says.
Giving heirloom or antique furniture new life will always be stylish.

We love to update an interior by adding dimension, says James Goldman.
That can be done by adding wallcoverings, or different textured fabrics.

We are seeing a big rise of the organic European look, says James Goldman.
“It’s replacing the rustic touches of Modern Farmhouse for a more organic touch.
Meanwhile, Armour predicts that people will be forgoing trendy looks and leaning into more timeless styles in 2024.

Can These New Trends Be Trusted?
Trends come and go.
Thats why Armour preaches a less is more approach to avoid falling into any short-lived trend traps.
Whats more, designers say that ifemerging trendsdont align with your personal style, theyll never last.
My advice to my clients is always pretty simple: Pick what you love.
Dont attempt to follow a trend because it will never last in your home.
Moodier colors, pattern play, rougher textures, and metals…Its all here to stay.
