How to Rock 2020’s Hottest Trends with Ashley Bedroom Furniture

This year is the ideal time to redecorate your bedroom. After all, home has become more important than ever in 2020. Whether you’re staying in, working from home, homeschooling, or coming home after a long day on the frontlines, you need a cozy, enjoyable haven of rest. And if you’re going to create a new bedroom look, you might as well do it in the latest fashion, right? Here’s a secret: when you buy Signature Design by Ashley furniture to start your project, you can create a bedroom that rocks 2020 in its own unique style.

Grandmillennial Style

When a House Beautiful article on Grandmillennial Style went viral, the concept was a breath of fresh air for interior designers everywhere. The idea came when Millennials requested new decorating options to outfit their home in styles reminiscent of their grandmothers’ homes but with a modern twist. The style has a character all its own, and people of all ages are falling in love with it.

What’s In Grandmillinnial Style?

When you think of Grandmillenial, think of a fresh take on comfort, hominess, and old-school design. It’s a style that brings the past to life along with vivid reminders of the modern world. So, how do you create this unique style? Start with these design components and combine them to create the “Granny Chic” look.

  1. Traditional Furniture - Look for furniture designs that are calming, orderly, symmetrical, classic, and made from rich, warm woods. In Grandmillenial interior design, traditional furniture is king!
  2. Mix Old and New – Mix it up with well-worn accessories and timeless designs along with new items and concepts.
  3. Classic Fabric Patterns – Classic motifs can show up in time-honored fabric patterns like chinoiserie, brocade, or herringbone. Use these for pillow covers, bedspreads, or throws as you decorate your bedroom space.
  4. Needlepoint and Handcrafts – Let your imagination run wild as you shop for or create handcrafted items. Or, you can just pull out an old gem from your grandmother’s collection of handmade items.
  5. Layered Décor – Layered décor is the look you’re going for here. Don’t worry about making one particular item stand out. With Grandmillennial style, it all works together to create a cozy, charming ambiance.

How Ashley Furniture Fits In

Ashley has hundreds of traditional style bedroom furniture sets to provide the centerpiece for your Grandmillenial bedroom. Choose from any furniture design among them and build on layers of style with new and old pieces and your best handcrafted accessories. Whether you’re 25 or 85, the Grandmillienial style can provide a change of pace just right for the new decade.

Rounded and Curvy Designs

Curvy designs are definitely in this year. Elle Decor marks 2020 as a year when the world is ready for furniture with rounded edges. And it’s no wonder! For so many years, furniture has been designed with the crisp, modern lines of contemporary and transitional furniture. Now, it’s time to say goodbye to the squared-off look and go for something with sweeping profiles and softer edges.

How to Put More Curve in Your Bedroom

Voluptuous curves give your bedroom great visual appeal. In art, curved lines are often associated with passion, beauty, and generosity. Who wouldn’t want a bedroom that calls those ideas to mind? Now, where are you going to add all those soft lines in your bedroom? The truth is that you can use curvaceous pieces throughout your bedroom, from the bed to the dresser to the plump, soft throw pillows on your bed. Here’s where to look for the curves:

  1. Arched Tops – Find them in headboards and mirrors, often ornately carved or intriguingly sculptured.
  2. Sculptural Chairs – Consider adding a curvy sculptural chair for reading and relaxing before going to bed. You can buy an artistically designed living room chair, or you could even go with an upholstered dining chair.
  3. Sleigh Beds – You can get sleigh beds with shallow or deep curves. Go for full sweeping sleigh headboards and footboards for luxurious lines on both ends!
  4. Rounded Edges – Take every opportunity to add soft edges throughout your room.

Classic Motifs

This year, classic motifs are back in style. Find them in the carvings and forms of your furniture’s legs and feet, trims and moldings, and headboards. These graceful wood details enhance the soft curves of this year’s furniture designs. You can choose furniture for your bedroom that features carved wood details in any of a variety of shapes and styles. These are design features that look wonderful now and keep their beautiful appearance for many years to come.

Types of Wood Details

If you’re going with traditional furniture to create that awesome Grandmillenial Style, you’ll find plenty of carved wood details to choose. Here are just a few of the classic details to consider:

  1. Bun Feet – These are feet that look like a slightly squashed ball. They often have ribs or carved details, and you can find them on dressers, nightstands, and the like.
  2. Cabriole Legs – Cabriole legs are designed to mimic the curve of an animal’s hind leg. They have a long s-shape with a double curve.
  3. Beading – Beading is a type of wood trim that resembles a row of beads.
  4. Egg-and-Dart Molding – This type of molding alternates egg shapes and points. It’s very common in traditional style furniture.
  5. Scallop Shells – This is a type of carving often found on today’s headboards. It looks like a seashell, of course.

Ashley Does Wood Details Right

Ashley furniture features a large assortment of fine wood carvings and details among their hundreds of traditional and Old-World collections. Just think of how elegant these little flourishes will look on your nightstand, dresser, chest, vanity, and bedroom bench!

Up and Coming Features

In 2020, furniture with the right features is essential. Furniture today has many little touches that have been around for years. At the same time, you’ll find many extras that suit today’s lifestyle incredibly well. Choose bedroom sets with old fashioned design features, but never skimp on today’s modern conveniences.

Trending Features

Sometimes, it’s the little extras that make bedroom sets stand out above the rest. So, what are the features people are talking about this year? The following features are extremely popular right now. Don’t be the last one to check them out!

  1. Fireplace Inserts – If you like a warm, gentle glow in your bedroom, look for dressers and chests with fireplace inserts.
  2. Integrated Audio – Integrated audio allows you to play music without leaving your bed.
  3. USB Ports – You can often find USB ports in bedroom furniture, especially in nightstands.

Ashley’s Got Features!

You can find a wide range of Ashley furniture with the most trend-setting features. Among the most generously equipped is the Baystorm Collection by Ashley. This set features integrated audio in the platform bed to bring more pleasure into your bedroom. The dresser has an antiqued mirror insert to give it an old-style look. And, with its chest containing a fireplace insert, this collection is just right for a comfortable, restful bedroom space.

Top Colors and Finishes

After years of subdued neutral finishes, the world was ready to change things up a bit. While neutrals are still popular, furniture makers have given them a new lease on life. Along with these milder colors, interior designers are embracing bolder choices for the new decade.

  1. Warm Woods– Warm, rich wood finishes like cherry, mahogany, and hickory are making the scene in today’s home décor. In fact, when The Spruce asked fifteen designers for their favorite trends in 2020, one mentioned warm wood tones while another listed warm colors.
  2. White and Neutrals with a Twist – White and neutrals like gray and beige are still in fashion, but you need to step up your game to get them right. If you do use these colors, be sure to add some jewel-tone accent pillows, furniture with a metallic finish, or a headboard with LED lighting.
  3. Bold Colors – Bold colors have burst onto the interior design scene this year. Medium blues and oranges are popular for bedding and even walls – not as an accent but as the main color!
  4. Exciting Monochromatic Color Schemes – For years, people created monochromatic neutral color schemes for their bedrooms. But recently, designers have found a new favorite in monochromatic color schemes. The trick is to make it exciting by choosing a brighter color.

Long-Lasting Quality and Durability For 2020 and Beyond

You may be buying bedroom furniture in 2020, but you probably want it to last for many years to come. The best way to make sure that happens is to buy quality home furniture in the first place. Then, your bed and all the other pieces of your bedroom set will last so well that you can hand them down to future generations. Fortunately, you can find both beautiful style and quality construction when you shop Ashley Furniture.

Construction Details to Look For

If you want your children and grandchildren to enjoy your 2020 furniture as much as you do, you need to make sure that every part is carefully crafted for quality and durability. Here are some of the construction details you’ll find in the finest furniture.

  1. High-Quality Materials – Solid wood or thick plywood are excellent basic materials for pieces like a headboard or dresser. Veneers can bring a lustrous wood finish when applied over wood solids. Beveled glass on mirrors, metal hardware on dressers and chests, and marble on case good tops are also long-lasting materials that stand the test of time.
  2. Secure Joints – Without secure joints, your furniture is going to fall apart very quickly. So, choose furniture with English and French dovetail drawers or mortise and tenon joints.
  3. Well-Built Drawers – Drawers need sturdy joints, but they also need smoothly operating slides so the drawers will stay on track and open quietly. Also, look for dust panels below the drawers. These protect what you put in the drawers while adding stability to the structure. One great extra is linen, cedar, or felt lining in the drawers.
  4. Upholstered Headboards – Be sure the upholstery on the headboard is made of excellent materials that are attached to the headboard frame securely. Tufting with faux crystal buttons adds another touch of elegance while holding the fabric in place.
