31. Matte Finishes
Shiny things are often beautiful; there’s no doubt about it. From warm metallic finishes to hints of sequins and glitter, shine can add a gorgeous focal point to a room. However, 2021 is mainly ready to say goodbye to metallic finishes on furniture, especially lacquer, and usher in a new era of more natural-looking matte finishes. Whether stone, muted metal, or natural-looking wood, matte finishes are less obtrusive and feel well-used and loved. This change will make your room inviting. It’s almost impossible to not curl up with a book and coffee next to a gorgeous matte stone coffee table or well-worn wooden chair.
