It&#8217;s easy to understand the obsession with marble. There\u2019s just something about it that injects instant opulent vibes into any room. And it feels cool and luxurious to the touch.<\/p>\n<p>It\u2019s not just marble itself, you can also find swathes of fabrics and textiles with marble prints and patterns. Which makes this trend a little easier to afford and adopt. Scout out\u00a0bed linen and wallpapers with a sumptuous marble effect finish to easily include this trend into your home.<\/p>\n<div class=\"tip\">Want to incorporate some quirky additions into your home but don&#8217;t have the skills (or time) to complete the task yourself? No sweat &#8211; just <a href=\"https:\/\/www.airtasker.com\/uk\/services\/handyman\/\">hire a handyman<\/a> via Airtasker to help sort the job at hand.<\/div>\n<h2><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\"><br \/>\n<\/span><strong>2. Dark woods<\/strong><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\"><br \/>\n<\/span><\/h2>\n<p>Looking to update your furniture in 2018? Expect to see lots of dark oak and deep mahogany if you go furniture hunting this year. Dark wooden furniture pieces are great for adding gravitas and that much-desired luxurious feel into any home. They also look pretty great against some of the tropical prints that are everywhere this year. (More on that later).<\/p>\n<p>If you&#8217;re not ready to splurge on expensive wooden pieces, remember, dark wooden furniture was in style &#8216;back in the day&#8217; too. Check out your local second-hand furniture shop for some surprisingly impressive &#8216;pre-loved&#8217; finds.<\/p>\n<h2><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\"><br \/>\n<\/span><strong>3.

And this trend is all about creating a natural and outdoorsy feel throughout the interiors of our homes.<\/p>\n<p>There\u2019s no need to go all out by painting all your walls terracotta. You can subtly incorporate this trend into your home by adding splashes of these colours using rugs or cushions.<\/p>\n<h2><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\"><strong>4.
