Another year has come to a close, and an all-new year of trends begins. The year 2026 is officially here and ready for you to make a home style statement! This year is all about personalized expression and creating a space that reflects your inner self through the use of colors, curves, and materials. We've compiled the top and upcoming 2026 trends to help you learn and explore how to incorporate them into your personal style without compromising your home's aesthetic.
Earth & Jewel Tones
Earthy and natural tones are staying on trend from the previous year. Their range of olive greens and deep browns stuck to our furniture-loving hearts, leaving them in our continuing trends for 2026.
Earth tones emphasize a more natural look in your home, blending different tones of soft greens, deep browns, and light tans to create a neutral yet lively look for seamless styling. It's a color palette derived from natural beauty and brought into your home. When you incorporate earth tones into your home, you add a touch of natural serenity and warmth, grounding you in your space while enhancing your comfort and connection to where you are and the people you're with.
For those introducing new colors or trying out different palettes in their home, earth tones help you move away from millennial grey looks without overwhelming your space with too many colors. For a more intense look, consider color drenching in earth tones as a great way to incorporate a maximalist feel without straying too far into maximalism itself.

If you prefer a bold and colorful look for your home, jewel tones will be a staple in your upcoming furniture style purchases. These deep and vibrant shades are saturated and inspired by precious gemstones. Colors like ruby red, emerald green, and sapphire blue are staples in jewel-toned furniture, making bold statements and often pairing well with neutral earth tones. Not only do jewel tones enhance the luxurious feel of your home, but they also offer warmth and a unique depth to your space, achievable only by rich color contrasts.
Lived-In Spaces and Personal Touches
As we enter 2026, with a focus on comfort, individuality, and emotional connection, it is no surprise that a shift towards lived-in and personalized spaces is becoming a trend. We are shifting away from stark minimalism and moving towards authenticity. Represent your personal style with heirlooms, vintage pieces, and handcrafted items created to reflect your unique individuality.
Curved Forms
Curved forms bring a warm and inviting feel throughout your space, guiding your eyes naturally around a room. It features round corners, soft cushions, and smooth arches that blend, flow, and add subtle structure throughout your home.
This style emulates things from the planet that bring you calm and internal peace. Many curved furniture styles draw inspiration from rounded edges and organic shapes, such as those found in leaves, flower petals, deep tree roots, and smoothed creek stones. Curved forms in your home offer support by curving to your body and soften any harsh architecture through contrast.
Excellent for small living spaces, curved furniture features soft, fluid silhouettes, low-slung chairs, and unique statement pieces that provide a comfort that feels like a hug. As natural dimensions guide the eye through the space, it makes your room feel bigger. Curves are great if you are looking to upgrade your living room without having to replace your couch. Adding a curved accent chair, round side tables, or even a bench can help round out the space with a curved feel without requiring a larger piece of furniture.
Curves are not a new trend for the Furniture Mart, as they represent a continuation of the cool, curvaceous designs seen in 2025. The difference between these two trends is the naturalness at the core of curved forms, while cool curvatures focus more on energizing the space with a unique sculptural feel. By incorporating curved elements, your home will feel more natural, organic, and overall more cohesive.
Nature-Inspired Art
Art and décor help complete your room, evoking specific feelings and memories throughout your home. Nature is a key element throughout this year's trends, featuring beautiful scenery and calming life stills, which are some examples of art pieces to incorporate. Nature-focused art offers a deep and environmental connection to your home. While nature is a primary feature throughout these 2026 trends, you can draw inspiration from a variety of art styles, offering endless options for representing what nature means to you throughout your home.
Try to steer clear of art that represents darker themes, such as rough seas, storms, and other natural disasters, as these can cause feelings of unrest and offset any calming styles you have introduced to a space. Instead, introduce natural landscapes, native animals, and outdoor memories you have created. These can represent not only your local environment but also bring forth fond memories and heartwarming feelings.
Natural Textures & Materials
As we enter 2026, longevity is taking center stage in interior design-and it's reshaping the materials we bring into our homes. Faux woods and imitation stones are giving way to more sustainable materials that celebrate natural texture, depth, and authenticity.
When considering furniture, be mindful of the investment in materials; it's no longer a simple design choice. Solid woods, clay, and woven fibers offer timeless beauty while withstanding years of daily life. These materials tell a story, your story: they're eco-friendly, responsibly sourced, and designed to age gracefully into your home instead of out.
What sets texture apart from material is the subtle imperfections as your eye moves over the surface. No two wood grains are identical, making each one unique and often carrying subtle qualities that draw you deeper into the piece. Let your personality shine through with the materials, textures, and designs you choose, creating a home that looks completely your own while still giving back to where it came from.
Unlike synthetic and faux materials, natural ones, such as wood and stone, are less likely to chip, cannot peel, and rarely fade over time. We are entering a design world where disposable design is no longer impactful, and instead, we are embracing authenticity.
Creating a Healthy Home and Sleep Experience
A healthy lifestyle encompasses more than just physical well-being; it also prioritizes mental health. Anxiety, stress, and significant life changes all affect how you move through everyday life. That's why caring for both your body and mind through one essential daily activity—sleep—is so important.
Sleep affects how your body feels throughout the day. A good night of rest keeps you energized and ready for the day ahead, no matter what physical tasks you take on. Whether you work on your feet or sit at a desk for hours, your body needs to be strong and resilient to face whatever challenges it may encounter. It also keeps your body healthy by warding off sickness, boosting your immunity, and helping it restore and repair for greater resilience. Ensuring your body remains comfortable throughout the night is crucial for maintaining your physical well-being.
Mental health is strongly influenced by sleep habits, including consistency, quality, and duration. Inadequate sleep can heighten stress, anxiety, and other mental health concerns, while also increasing the risk of insomnia. These effects can compound over time, impacting overall physical and mental health.
To help yourself get the rest your mind and body deserve, it's essential to invest in the space you sleep. Getting a mattress that helps your body relax should be priority number one. If you're unsure about which mattress is right for you, you can visit us in-store and receive a personalized Comfort Test with one of our Sleep Experts to ensure you get the best mattress for your body, targeting your unique sleep needs.
Once you've chosen a mattress, it's time to shift focus to your bedroom's "sleep aesthetic," which is what makes you feel the most comfortable in your bedroom. How you style your room is entirely a matter of personal preference in what brings you peace. A great place to start is with your bedframe, nightstands, dressers, and sleep accessories. You can get a cohesive look with convenient bedroom collections, or you can mix and match different styles to make it truly your own. Whichever way you choose to style your sleep sanctuary, ensure it's peaceful and relaxing to help keep your mind at ease and promote a faster rest cycle.
2026 is well on its way to being a memorable year, and we are excited to see how these trends evolve and make their way into your homes. It's time to make your home reflect you by embracing these trends and bringing them to life.
