If you are a millennial, or an aspiring YouTuber, Homeowner, a cafe owner, or someone who wants to jazz up their creative office space, or for that matter a rent-paying frequent-shifter kind of a millennial homeowner; here are the few things that instantly give you the vibe of youth and bring out the pop in your taste.
Drink a shot of kombucha for every piece on this list you want. You’ll go down fast!
1. World map artwork to signal our love of travel and “experiences, not things.”Inspire people to travel and have a different experience.
2. Tropical prints to subconsciously resist global warming and the destruction of rainforests. Because green is the new trend, plus who doesn’t want to be closer to nature?
Monstera, plantain, and palm leaf motifs are particularly popular.
3. Brass-finish decor whose regality defies our recession-era coming-of-age. This cool and easy to maintain seat is sure to catch a lot of eyes, but try getting your hands on something which also has a backrest.
4. A stylish bar cart to flex at your next party, because what millennial prefers going out. If not this, you can also look for a dinner trolley which today is the ultimate high-end serving station. If you don’t drink, stock it with non-alcoholic beverages and style it with books and showpieces. Go for a steampunk or mid-century modern design.
5. A rug with a classic “Moroccan tiles” pattern you’ll find on every fashion blogger’s Instagram. You can even add Moroccan tiles as a backsplash on your kitchen or bathroom walls.
6. Accessories in millennial pink and its metallic version, rose gold because we don’t believe in gender and everyone should be able to enjoy the best color ever. This not only adds brightness to an area but also helps in breaking the color monotony going on everywhere.
7. A gallery wall because we love the nostalgia of printed selfies. You can have pictures of famous people who have visited your café/office, or your close ones; some memorable moments; or anything that you like and would love to have around you.
8. An accent table with hairpin legs, for the love of all things mid-century modern. It will be great if you could add a marble/ wooden tabletop to it.
A modern update to the classic Chesterfield sofa in colors like “avocado green”.This tufted green sofa seems to be straight out of a luxury Britishdesigner’s office.
9. Sustainable materials like wicker, rattan, and cane. They’re everywhere in furniture, storage, and lighting. Bonus for this is that it will also help the local community grow and prosper. Your décor will also brighten someone else’s home.
10. The “it” chair of our generation: replicas of the Eames DSW chair. This is a quintessential mid-mod piece of furniture with clean design, shell shape, and distinctive legs. These are available in various designs and also come in eccentric colors with patchwork.
11. Sassy quotes in Hindi. These add sass and can be one of the cheapest ways to add to the suave of the place.
12. Doormats with personality. These are one of a kind and can make others feel instantly at home.
13. Velvet, particularly jewel tones, particularly in the living room. This may seem high maintenance for some but nothing spells class like some velvet cushions.
14. A chunky knit throw blanket that’s incredibly huge.
Now, this is not everyone’s cup of tea as some people may not grab this aesthetic concept and might feel that this would look messy, but NO, those who are aware know how visually appealing and comfortable this seems, especially on a winter evening.
15. Floating and open shelves to show off our latest reads and showpieces. These are available in various shapes such as a wine bottle, circle, rhombus, etc.
16. Indoor plants like cacti and succulents, so you can truthfully tell your Tinder dates you’re an “urban farmer.” After all, a little greenery wouldn’t do any harm to anyone.
17. Whimsical motifs, usually with a tropical vibe. Popular options include pineapple, avocado, flamingo, owl, cactus, tropical leaves, French bulldog, and unicorn. These will be the statement pieces everyone’s going to talk about.
18. Seemingly vintage analog clocks to prove how “real” we are, even though we look at our phones more. You can never underestimate the importance of time, and you can never really complete a décor without a clock.
19. The “Grandmillennial” decor trend involves an appreciation for old-fashioned and outdated styles that your grandma might like, such as floral chintz, needlepoint, decoupage, etc. This print on sofas has made such a huge comeback and is here to stay for long. Gone are those days of plain fabric sofas.
20. A multi-functional and sustainable woven round pouffy, in this millennial-approved mustard color. You can also find these with storage also. Plus for children’s rooms, you can opt for animal-shaped Ottomans.
21. Decorative pillows with a motif personal to you, like playful monkey emojis that perfectly embody the millennial love of texting. With the burst of social media apps, the emoticon pillows draw both young and old equally. They are cute, soft, usable and affordable all at the same time.
22. Vintage Edison bulbs in your favorite shape. Various pendant lamps are up for grabs everywhere and thus tungsten color will boost the glow and light in the area.
