Infuse your living spaces with nature-inspired artworks, and expect a shift away from minimalist aesthetics as vibrant colours and eclectic styles come to the forefront!
Nature-Inspired Artwork
The trend of merging indoor and outdoor spaces will remain a favourite in the coming new year. This trend of integrating natural elements into home interiors reflects a growing desire for a connection with nature and the use of outdoor aspects to enhance indoor living areas.
In 2024, art collectors are expected to gravitate towards nature-inspired artwork, including pieces that evoke the beauty of landscapes, botanicals, or art crafted from natural materials. Notably, there is a growing interest in artworks featuring lush green tones, underlining a collective appreciation for the soothing and revitalising quality of nature-infused aesthetics in contemporary living spaces.

Bold Choices & Vibrant Colours
In 2024, interior design is set to break away from the minimalist aesthetic, embracing a shift towards unexpected colour combinations, a fusion of styles, and an overall more vibrant and individualistic approach to home decor.
Art buyers are expected to gravitate towards unique, statement pieces that inject a burst of vibrancy into their living spaces, steering away from mass-produced prints. Aligning with this trend, the Dulux Colour Forecast 2024 provides a fitting backdrop for this eclectic and playful styling, inspiring a palette that resonates with the upcoming interior design landscape.

Ethical Art
As sustainability becomes a key interior design consideration, this ethos extends to art buying. Increasingly, collectors are embracing a more sustainable and socially responsible mindset. Transparency is the new buzzword – collectors want to know the backstory of the artwork and seek firsthand glimpses of the artist in their creative process to validate authenticity.
A notable aspect of this conscientious approach to art buying is an emphasis on ensuring ethical sourcing of Indigenous art and supporting Indigenous communities. Recognising the significance of this, many collectors are turning to Indigenous Art Code-certified art sellers like Bluethumb.
