I’m always amazed by how interior design trends that were considered out of date just 5 years earlier always come back to be considered more chic than ever, even among the high end set.

While I’m truly a believer that when it comes to decorating your home, you’ve got to listen to yourself first, the fact is that personal tastes often evolve. And a lot of times the change in what you like is subtly influenced by what’s going on in the world-at-large.

So here’s what Zillo is predicting will be the 5 hot new trends in interior design in the upcoming year…

1. Gold Fixtures
2. Cowhide
3. Wallpaper
4. Blue Accent Colors
5. Mid-Century Elements
