2019
Europe has a rich and diverse group in terms of design customs. Some of which date back a few centuries. Few trends, on the other hand, were shaped by Europe's progress, and the response to the diversity in its inhabitants, demographics, wealth and resources. The roots are formed from European designers that founded the Bauhaus school of design in Germany in 1919. Its ideology is focused on functionality and prevents the overuse of fashionable accessories, similar to the simple nature of the Nordic-inspired Minimalist style.
Modern European style, often understood as 'harsh' (perhaps in contrast to 'homely'), can help to create a feeling of calmness, provided that it’s well planned. One the other hand, classical European style was influenced by the Greeks and Romans on a large scale.

While selecting the colours, look for colours that can be observed in nature or the Old World towns. Those are usually rich, pleasant and deep-toned.Keeping the colours at your disposal yet cleverly to distinct in each room telling a fairly warm story through the colour tone.

Along with that as far as the trends go, everything is accepted. Living coral seems likely to be in the spotlight in 2019.
