Which color palettes do you see as trend-setting in interior design in 2024 and how could they harmonize with lighting elements?


The trend color in 2024: Peach Fuzz - an elegant blend of delicate peach and soft rosé that gives every room a cozy and inviting atmosphere. Peach-colored walls, wallpaper, fabrics and furniture create places of calm and balance in the interior that we so long for. When it comes to conveying calm, the choice of color has a major influence: soft colors that ensure coziness, harmony and elegance within the four walls. This is where warm earth tones come into play: sand, clay, ochre and terracotta have a calming effect and satisfy our desire for living close to nature. Green tones will take a back seat in the future. In general, the lighting trends for 2024 are characterized by a reduction to the essentials. The design of numerous new luminaires is based on basic geometric shapes, with the colors black, white, cream, brass and chrome dominating and can therefore be combined very well with the 2024 color trends.


Are there certain materials or textiles that will be particularly in focus in 2024, and how can these be showcased with innovative lighting?


In 2024, the trend towards natural elements will go beyond the mere presence of indoor plants. Natural materials such as wood, stone and even water will be used in creative and innovative ways to create a connection with nature. Another interior trend: bouclé. Bouclé is not just a fabric, but rather an experience. The unique texture of the material, which has its origins primarily in fashion, invites you to touch and feel it, while the natural color palette creates a calming atmosphere.


In 2024, bouclé will appear in many forms: from upholstered furniture to curtains and cushions. the perfect choice for those who want to combine comfort and luxury. Accessories, an unusual wall structure or special furniture can be highlighted with lighting accents. Lighting directed upwards from below highlights structures in particular. Small spotlights aimed specifically at an object are also suitable. Indirect lighting illuminates dark corners and makes the room appear larger without any special effort.


In your opinion, how will increasing digitalization and the smart home concept affect interior design and lighting solutions in particular in 2024?


Increasing digitalization and the smart home concept will also have a major impact on interior design in 2024. Intelligent lighting solutions offer a variety of new ways to design and enliven rooms. One of the most important advantages is flexibility. With intelligent luminaires, the lighting conditions in a room can be easily and individually adjusted. For example, the lighting can be changed depending on the time of day, activity or mood, providing greater comfort and well-being. Intelligent lighting can also help to save energy. For example, lights can be programmed to switch off automatically when a room is not in use. It is an innovative technology that will permanently change interior design. It offers more flexibility, comfort, design options and energy savings.


Sustainability is a topic that is becoming increasingly important in all areas of life. Which sustainable design concepts could become particularly relevant in 2024 and how can they be supported by lighting?


More and more people are attaching importance to environmentally friendly materials, energy-efficient systems and resource-saving design. Lighting plays an important role in the implementation of sustainable design concepts, as it not only makes interiors more appealing, but also saves energy. There are various ways to implement sustainable lighting . LED lights are more efficient than conventional light sources and have a long service life, saving energy and costs. Another option is to use natural light. By making good use of daylight, interiors can be made bright and friendly. This can be achieved through large windows or glass surfaces. The materials used also play a major role - luminaires made from sustainable materials such as wood, metal, glass or recycled plastics are a good choice.


Finally, we would like to know what role you attach to individualized lighting solutions and how they can contribute to the personal expressiveness of interior design?


As an interior designer, I am convinced that lighting plays a decisive role in the design of a room. It can determine the atmosphere of a room, improve functionality and emphasize the personal expressiveness of the interior design. Individualized lighting solutions offer a number of advantages: They make it possible to adapt the lighting to the individual needs and wishes of the user. For example, the light intensity, light color and light distribution can be varied according to room use and personal taste. In addition, individualized lighting solutions offer the possibility of visually changing a room. For example, targeted lighting accents can be used to highlight certain areas or visually change the size of a room.

Harmony through lighting trends 2024


In 2024, everything in the world of lighting and furnishings will revolve around harmony, function and sustainability. The design of living spaces follows the principle of creating a perfect balance between aesthetics, comfort and environmental awareness. When it comes to lighting, the focus is on individuality. There is a trend towards smart and customizable lighting systems. With intelligent lights, you can adjust the brightness and color temperature of your room to suit your mood.


Whether a warm, cozy light for relaxing or a cool, energetic light for working - anything is possible in 2024. The boundaries between indoor and outdoor lighting are also becoming increasingly blurred, allowing you to use lighting elements to create a uniform ambience that extends from inside to outside. The focus is also on sustainability when it comes to materials. Recycled and environmentally friendly materials such as glass, wood and metal are very much on trend. Lightweight rattan and bamboo are not only sustainable, but also bring a fresh, natural aesthetic to the room. Textiles are dominated by pleasant, natural fabrics such as linen and cotton, often in soft, earthy tones.


The color palette for 2024 is diverse and reflects a longing for calm and energy at the same time. Pastel shades are just as present as powerful accents in jewel tones. Shades of blue and green, which reflect nature, are particularly popular and are often combined with neutral tones such as gray, beige and white. In terms of furniture, there is a move towards functionality and flexibility. Modular furniture that can be easily adapted to different room sizes and purposes is in demand. The trend is towards a minimalist style in which every piece is both functional and aesthetically pleasing. Interior design in 2024 emphasizes well-being and mental health.


Rooms are designed in such a way that they are not only beautiful, but also calming and inspiring. The integration of plants, natural elements and art plays a major role here. Overall, the trend for 2024 is characterized by a return to the essentials: Spaces that are not only aesthetically pleasing, but also liveable, flexible and sustainable. The aim is to create a personal retreat that reflects one's own personality and at the same time makes a positive contribution to environmental protection.

Enjoy with all your senses


The right lighting has the power to evoke emotions and create a multi-sensory experience that appeals to all five senses. In 2024, lighting trends are taking up this challenge to create spaces that go far beyond the visual.


See: Visually, lighting has the power to transform a space. The 2024 trends emphasize individuality and customizability. With smart lighting systems, the color temperature and brightness can be fine-tuned to give each room a personal touch. In this way, light can promote emotions such as calm or concentration.


Listen: Although light itself is noiseless, it can change the atmosphere of a room in such a way that it influences the acoustic experience. A softly lit corner with a cozy armchair invites you to relax and listen to music or an audio book, while a well-lit kitchen accompanies social gatherings while cooking.


Smell: Lighting can help to highlight certain areas and therefore also accentuate our olfactory senses. A cleverly placed light above a dining table or near scented candles can draw our attention to pleasant smells, evoking emotions and memories.


Taste: In the kitchen and dining area, the right lighting plays a crucial role. It emphasizes the colors and textures of the food, making it even more appetizing. The 2024 trends rely on a mixture of functional and atmospheric lighting to turn the culinary experience into a feast for the senses.


FeelThe feel of a room can be strongly influenced by the lighting design. Warm light conveys a cozy, soft atmosphere, while cool light is often perceived as fresh and invigorating. Materials such as glass or metal in luminaires can also create tactile stimuli through their surface textures.


To summarize, in 2024 lighting will not only be used to illuminate rooms, but also to create a comprehensive sensory experience that triggers and enhances emotions. It will become an integral part of the living space, appealing to all the senses and thus enhancing well-being.
