As we prepare to welcome in 2024, the heart of the home - the kitchen - is anticipating a huge design transformation that merges both functionality and style. Quite frankly, we’re looking forward to giving our kitchens a refresh, especially after all the use they’ll likely receive during the festive season. By simply swapping out your seating, in particular your bar stools, with some new and approved designs, you’d be surprised at the difference you’ll make to the overall space. In this EZ Living Furniture blog, we discuss the kitchen stool trends that you can expect to en“counter” in the New Year. Sorry, we couldn’t help ourselves…..

Bar Stool Colour Trends For 2024

We’ll be straight up with you, choosing the right bar stool isn’t easy. It’s not just about finding somewhere to perch, it’s an art and if you get it wrong, it could take away from your preexisting decor. On the flip side, if you get it right, it will continue to look good and make a statement for years to come. We have put together a list of trending colours that are expected to “wow” in the New Year. Stick to these shades if you want to represent the upcoming year in your kitchen decor!

1. Warming Neutrals

Warming neutrals were huge this year and it looks like this trend is here to stay, at least for the foreseeable future. Earthy taupe, chestnut pink, cocoa brown, and tan shades dominated this year. Even greige (a mixture between grey and beige) grew in popularity because of the warming undertone provided by the beige. The Maple Bar Stools above have a biscuit-like hue. At first glance, they might appear grey but on reflection, they can come across as beige. The best thing about these warm neutral shades is that they work surprisingly well in many different situations. They are versatile and adaptable which allows them to fit seamlessly into various decor colour schemes.

2. Olive Or Forest Green

This is another colour trend that’s set to stay around a little longer and to be honest, we’re delighted to hear it. There’s nothing nicer than an olive or forest green hue to depict nature in all its beauty in the home. The Athy Bar Stools above are upholstered in stunning olive-green velvet and are complemented well by the accompanying oak legs and partial oak backrest support. If you’re looking for a way to represent 2024 in your kitchen or dining room decor, then look no further than the Athy Kitchen Stools.

3. Blush Pink

Blush pink is one of those colours that people are still wary of using in the main areas of their homes. It’s understandable, for many years, you’d only ever see blush pink in a little girl’s bedroom, now thankfully things are changing. Interior designers are styling this beautiful rosy hue in new and interesting ways. You could find it on the walls of a living room or on the bed frame in the bedroom and it wouldn’t look out of place. Simply opening up our minds to the possibility that pink wasn’t just for “cute camp” has allowed us to embrace this colour in all of its qualities. And thankfully this happened just in time for it to be a trending colour in 2024. Just look at the Pink Ottowa Bar Stools above, they would bring your kitchen into the New Year without making too much of a dramatic fuss.

4. One To Watch In 2024

Sometimes we can be stuck deciding between materials. Should I choose velvet or would leather be better? Luckily, you won’t need to spend much time deciding. The Yale Bar Stools above are upholstered in both black faux leather and grey fabric and they work together to create a mismatch of complementing materials that will continue to look good year after year. Keep a look out on our website for the Yale Stools - Coming Soon!
