A New Year, A New Space: Design a Home That Brings You Joy in 2026

A new year always brings a sense of possibility, and there’s no better place to start fresh than at home. This is the year to create a space that truly brings you joy, a space that makes you smile the moment you walk through the door.

Interior design doesn’t have to mean a full renovation (though it can!). Sometimes, the smallest changes make the biggest impact. The goal for 2026 is simple: design with intention and happiness in mind.

Start Small or Go All In

Refreshing your home can be as simple or as transformative as you want it to be. Consider starting with one meaningful update:

  • Paint a statement wall in a color that energizes or calms you
  • Add new curtains to soften the room and frame natural light
  • Invest in a new rug to ground your space and define the room
  • Update home décor accessories like pillows, throws, artwork, or lighting

Or, if you’re ready, this may be the perfect time for a complete re-do—rethinking layout, flow, and how your home supports your lifestyle.

Now Is the Time to Plan

The key to a successful design refresh is planning. Before you begin, take a moment to:

  • Set your deadline – Is this a January refresh? A spring reveal?
  • Set your budget – Know your comfort zone so decisions feel exciting, not stressful
  • Define your vision – How do you want your space to feel when it’s finished? Calm? Cozy? Energizing? Elegant?

Get the Right Support

Working with an interior décor expert can save you time, money, and overwhelm. A professional can help refine your vision, avoid costly mistakes, and bring cohesion to your space.
