New Delhi News, 24 March 2021 : The grand millennial trend is all about embracing the past and bringing it into a contemporary setting. It is an ode to the past, bringing back the nostalgia and romanticism of decorative elements and retro designs, in a chic material palette.

It plays on the trend of minimal maximalism, bringing in a wide assortment of forms, colours, textures, patterns, aroma and lighting into a clean, simple and elegant design. Assorted accessories in unique forms inspired by the retro art movements like Memphis and Bauhaus, along with vibrant upholstery add a mid-century aesthetic to the home. It celebrates the play of soft curves with sharp geometry, in plush fabrics, metallic finishes and artisanal work, to create a cozy yet captivating space.

Symbolizing the power of structured simplicity and the captivating quietude of artisanal handwork, pleats and fluted designs have become a major part of this trend. It plays with the visual fluidity and structure of materials, creating unique products in modern silhouettes. Ruffles and fringe-trimmed lounge chairs, ottomans, light fixtures and throw pillows add to the beauty of grand millennial décor. Distinctive furniture like geometric tables, curvilinear sofas and neotenic furniture inspired by organic folds, asymmetry and bulbous forms further add to this trend, channeling a futuristic appeal and a laidback softness into the space.

Incorporating furniture and experimental accessories in a combination of modern biosynthetic and recyclable materials, along with rough, organic finishing and digitally printed patterns creates an ultra-modern yet affable vibe. Adding travel memorabilia, collectibles and hand-woven natural fibers like rattan reflects a mindful and individualistic aesthetic. This trend is all about layering with various colors, patterns and metallic details. Assorted sheen in silver, gold, copper and brass with delicate surface finishing adds an earnestness to the décor.

Midcentury modern furniture with reinterpreted Classical elements, which are neither traditional nor modern add oomph to the room, bringing out a welcoming warmth and intimacy. Bold and innovative nature inspired motifs along with a combination of moody and rich colors in abstract art, carpets, wall reliefs, tiles, wallpapers, linen and upholstery create a dynamic and vibrant interior. A combination of small, delicate prints, floral prints and modern prints, along with cozy rugs and throws, statement chandeliers and decorative lampshades, create an elegant and relaxing atmosphere for those joyful gatherings.

Grand millennial trend follows no rules. It’s rather an encouragement to break all the said rules, bringing a sense of who you are to your spaces. It’s about fully embracing and showing off our personality to create the perfect blend of comfort, ease, and tradition. The idea here is to orchestrate a robust, maximalist display that’s bursting with personality and charm while not feeling too dingy or overpowering. It is a trend that groups unique textures and interesting patterns, to create something unexpected.
