Mix & match furniture

Mixing and matching furniture will remain popular in 2014.

Cafes and restaurants will continue mixing their furniture, opting for less matched and more interesting interior by mixing their chairs with stools and upholstered larger show pieces.

Statement Pieces

In 2014 we predict that you’ll be seeing a lot of statement pieces. These will most likely feature the geometric fabrics that were so popular in 2013 as well as bold statement colours.

There is also an emerging number of geometric forms in the frames of tables and chairs.

Bold colours

Bold primary colours such as yellow and cobalt blue will continue to be popular for statement pieces paired with neutrals.

Pairing opposite materials

There is an emerging trend of paring opposite materials together such as zinc and raw timber, timber with leather etc.

This highlights the unique characteristics of each material and makes for a unique and interested piece. Copper is growing in popularity.

It’s already being used in wall panelling and light fittings as it ages with a beautiful patina.

Plush aesthetic

The industrial look was very popular in 2013 however; in 2014 there will be a shift from the rough aesthetic to a plusher aesthetic. Leathers and deep tones will replace the harsh raw metals and raw timbers. This will be a more luxurious theme than the traditional industrial aesthetic.

When fitting our your QSR venue in 2014 you don’t have to incorporate all of the above but by incorporating one or two elements you will be well on your way to having a modern interior that stands out.
