What was once off trend or considered old school is being reawakened and brought back to life. And with people’s creative juices flowing more than ever, we’re seeing a wide range of trends, like floor-to-ceiling floral wall coverings and unique approaches to renovating. Homes are being transformed into works of art, showcasing style people never knew they had – and we like what we’re seeing.
