The era of specific decor trends is on the wane. Rooms full of traditional or modern furniture have been replaced by a more eclectic sensibility, interior decorators and designers agree.

Mixing and matching has become a trend in itself. And this trend’s more liberating than limiting.
“The look is about combining decorative elements and mementos from your personal history — the places you’ve been, where you’re at and where you’re going — and arranging them artfully to create a stylish, beautiful, lived-in space,” says New York interior designer Elaine Griffin.
The explosion of inspirational media has helped drive the shift, she thinks; amateur decorators now get ideas and confidence from design blogs, TV shows and shelter magazines.
“Homeowners are at last masters of their own ships,” says Griffin. “We’ve revolutionized the term ‘eclectic’ as a design style.”
If you’re updating a room this fall, here’s a sampler of ideas to get the creative wheels turning:
At the International Contemporary Furniture Fair this spring in New York, which presented a first look at what retailers will be offering for fall, designers were playing with scale, in lighting particularly.
California lighting company Cerno showed Silva Giant, a 7-foot-tall floor lamp with a slanted walnut base and barrel shade. A solar bulb that charges up during the day and lights the night when the sun sets. The company’s Valeo model had a crane-like walnut base that extended 9 feet, with an aluminum rod suspending a large linen shade. Despite its size, the fixture seemed to frame the space rather than loom over it.
Moooi’s Raimond chandelier was a sphere of LED lights that evoked a fireworks burst, while MioCulture showed whimsical, glowing LED-lit,We have a great selection of blown glass backyard solar landscape lights and solar garden light. floor-lamp cones. Tango Lighting’s Memory Floor Light has a 3-foot black, brown or white shade with a choice of dramatic interior colors.
Big was big, but the show also featured lighting that occupied as little space as possible. Choose your favorite street lamp paintings from thousands of available designs. Patrick Townsend’s SuperString series played with naturally occurring patterns in science and astronomy. CP Lighting showed its new Growth collection of brushed aluminum branch-like fixtures.
Retailers will also be offering slivers of table lamps with a slim profile.
For its textile collection this fall, Crate & Barrel is putting linen front and center, but not the old-fashioned kind, says Sandy Kortright, a senior buyer at the retailer.
“For the fall collection, we hung our hat on linen that’s casual and soft. The idea is not to iron linen but keep it lovely,Heavy duty off-road LED light bars and vehicle LED auxiliary lights, portable and fixed hid light and replacement bulbs. organic and casual, with a few soft wrinkles spread throughout,” she says.
You’ll see a range of throws in various textures, from cashmere to quilted motifs to nubby wools. There are thick, chunky knitted weaves on blankets, ottomans and rugs, but luxe wool and silk blankets as well. Designer James de Wulff is turning concrete into small tables; concrete and stone — either real or faux — are being incorporated into many pieces this fall, including tables, lamps, and accessories such as vases and outdoor planters.
