As the new year begins, many people are looking to make a change to their own homes. And not just by swapping out furniture or pictures. Often, a more comprehensive redesign is on the cards – room by room, tailored to their own needs and preferences. The 2026 interior design trends offer plenty of inspiration for this. These trends are characterised above all by harmonious colours, natural materials and organic shapes.
Instead of cool purism, the focus is on cosiness and sustainable comfort, with styles such as ‘Cocooning 2.0’ or the new ‘Soft Minimalism’ creating a cosy, highly personalised living environment. To bring this to life, it’s advisable to choose products with foresight that sustainably support this natural sense of well-being and comfort.
Particularly when it comes to wall surfaces, it is worth opting for durable solutions with soft textures, eco-friendly formulations and customisable designs – such as Erfurt’s non-woven fibre or textured non-woven wallpapers. These create the ideal conditions for highlighting the walls with on-trend colours on the one hand. On the other hand, they help to create a nature-inspired, cosy living space. Colours such as sand, beige and terracotta, for example, provide a calm base, whilst pastel shades like lavender and sage lend a sense of lightness. The soft ochre yellow of Colournetwork colour No. 9, ‘taste south!’, is reminiscent of sun-drenched landscapes and fills rooms with a Mediterranean
joie de vivre. Alongside this, dark accents in petrol blue or forest green add depth and elegance. The great thing is that, thanks to their embossed or water-based foamed textures, Erfurt wallpapers intensify the chosen shades and create an all-round vibrant atmosphere in the room.
Combining them with interiors and décor made from wood, stone, linen or cork creates tactile experiences and also emphasises the need for mindfulness and sustainability. Incidentally, Erfurt wallpapers themselves are made from eco-friendly, sustainable materials; they are free from PVC and plasticisers and promote a healthy indoor climate. They are easy to hang using the wall-adhesive method and, to top it all off, can be painted over multiple times. This leaves plenty of scope to reinterpret colours and styles at any time.
