Pinterest is a great source of inspiration. Food, fashion and our personal favourite, home decor. Admittedly, there’s a lot of inspiration on Pinterest. One way to sift through all that content is to look for what’s trending. Pinterest’s Fall Trend Report just dropped. It’s a comprehensive look at the latest trends in fall aesthetics.
Japanese culture is huge this year, with searches for “Zen house” up 405 per cent and “Japanese living room design” up 135 per cent. Not surprisingly, Pinterest users are also looking for “cozy fall vibes” (up 90 per cent). Let’s take a look at the significant trends in home decor this fall.
