We're already more than halfway through the year, and with that, the conversation often turns to plans for Christmas and New Year's. Many of us will even begin to focus on our interiors and the upcoming trends to expect in the year ahead. Designers, furniture makers, and editors are already debating which emerging styles, materials, and elements will define our homes in 2027. And while we'd never suggest overhauling your entire home for the sake of a trend, staying on top of trends can help you make more informed purchasing decisions going forward. So, whether you're planning a refresh or simply looking to update a few key pieces in your living room, dining room, bedroom, and beyond....these listed trends in this EZ Living Furniture blog are worth paying attention to! 

Genoa 3 Seater Brown Fabric Chesterfield Sofa at EZ Living Furniture.

Therapy-Style Seating

Living rooms in 2027 are fast becoming a therapy space, an area in which to unwind in the evening and clear our minds after a long, hard day at work. TV is almost becoming a thing of the past....almost. Entertainment walls are an incredibly popular addition to modern sitting room designs, and while they still have their place, recessed into the wall, they're not a dominant feature sitting on a TV stand out from the wall anymore. Instead, the current generation is focusing on bringing an element of zen into their living spaces in 2027. Rather than large, plush corner sofas designed to facilitate staring at a screen for hours on end, long, low, Chesterfield-style seating is being favoured. If you're having difficulty imagining the type of seating we are referring to, just picture the type of chaise you might find in a therapist's office – but better. The Genoa (pictured above) is exactly the sofa you should aim to bring into your home in 2027 and beyond, with its traditional, raised-leg, button-detailed, rounded bolster cushion design, it's everything this trend is asking for and more

Tic‑Tac‑Toe Board Game Marble at EZ Living Furniture.

Game Tables

In all our years in furniture and interior design, the introduction of game tables as a trend is a first. Still, it's not completely out of the blue, as previously discussed; next year we're moving away from the screen and investing time in other areas, such as relaxation, and now it seems it's traditional, family-fun games. While this new trend focuses entirely on small side tables with a recessed surface expected to house a variety of typical square-shaped board games, you could always introduce a small side table just big enough for one board game instead. This leaves the table open to being used for other things too - like a cup of tea, for instance. Alternatively, you could invest in a nest of tables, which again, could be used for a variety of things and can be easily stored away when not in use. We suggest the Barleycove Nest of Tables, which features traditional oak tops and a white base.

The Glossy Furniture & Accessories Collection at EZ Living Furniture.

Glossy Furniture

Just like with our makeup looks, the glazed look is in! In 2027, in the furniture and accessory industries, we're moving away from matte materials and finishes and gravitating towards glossy appearances. We love this change in direction; in fact, we were ahead of it when we introduced our Gloss Collection last year. With a selection of small pedestal side tables, vases, candle holders, trays, and pots, there's a lot to choose from in our glossy range. The textural sheen from this range would instantly draw the eye of anyone in its presence. It's like looking into a crystal ball, but instead of seeing your future, you're seeing the pieces you know will be popular in interiors in the future! Of course, instead of going with fully-glossed accessories, you could always incorporate this trend in a different way – such as a lacquered-finished dining table?

Napoli Ceramic Extendable Dining Table at EZ Living Furniture.

Sculpted Furniture

Our next trend is all about blending art and furniture design. In 2027, furniture needs to do more than its function; it needs to be a statement piece or talking point with an interesting design. Thankfully, you won't have to look too far, because the Napoli Dining Table does exactly that! With its sculptural, slatted base and sophisticated ceramic top, this piece wouldn't look out of place at an art exhibition; fortunately, though, this dining table isn't just all style and no substance, because it has many features designed for everyday living and last-minute entertaining. The Napoli boasts a ceramic top, which is resistant to scratches, stains, and heat, making it perfect for busy households. The marble effect ceramic top continues to the integrated extendable pieces, and yes, this table does extend, and easily too! So, not only will you be on trend with this dining table, but those last-minute parties won't be such a stress-inducing event either!

Melody Abaca Floor Lamp with white shade at EZ Living Furniture.

Biophilic Lighting

While biophilic design has been around in interiors for a while now, the introduction of biophilic lighting hasn't. In 2027, we'll be seeing more of the natural world incorporated into lighting, specifically table lamps, ceiling lights, and floor lamps. The shade or base (if applicable) can be the element that steers a person's thoughts to the outside world, so there are lots of styles to consider. The Melody Floor Lamp (above) is just one of many floor lamps at EZ Living Furniture that reflects this trend and would also bring a statement piece to your desired space. It features a woven base crafted from Abaca (also known as Manila Hemp), a burlap-styled textile that is a natural, sturdy fibre derived from the bark of a banana tree.
