Authenticity...the NEW Black?

In 2015, interior designers worldwide, okay- maybe not the designers….let’s start over.  In 2015, our media decided that ‘Individuality’ was the new trend in interior design. Who decides this stuff anyways?  Seriously, who decides what the latest trends are….I’ve alays wondered that.  Not because I follow trends, quite the opposite.  It just seems…. Odd. Well, at least to me that seems odd- the concept of the media decides something, for all of us.
I’ve always thought that interior design should always reflect individuality, however, at some point society decided that was wrong- and it is far more important to follow trends, keep up with the Jones’, and replicate every Pintrest photo that inspires you.
Here are some examples of great designers like myself, who feel as though individuality never went out of style.

​I want to ask my readers, what’s more important to you- a home that reflects changing trends -or- a home that reflects YOU?
