5 trends that look good but interior designers warn won’t last

This year has been known as a bit of a year for anti-trends. The majority of trends we have seen really stick in 2024 have not really been trends at all, but an overarching feel that timeless, characterful, meaningful interiors are the ‘trend’ to follow. Gone are all those ‘core’ and micro trends we saw so much of back in 2023, instead there’s been a focus on classic interior design styles.

However, that doesn’t mean there hasn’t been the odd look that just won’t last. There’s always going to be interior design trends that might look great but just don’t have longevity. We spoke with designers to find out exactly which trends those are.

Contemporary designers have re-embraced the kitchen trend for tiled countertops this past year, a look previously not seen since the 1980s. It works for many reasons –it’s another way to fold hand-worn zellige tiles into a space, making the most of all the character they bring. It allows you to add some design flair by choosing an unexpected color for the grouting if you wish. And, when used as a waterfall effect on an island, it creates a striking geometric hero-piece effect for the center of the room.
