But the version making a comeback today isn’t the one you remember from old sitcom reruns. What’s actually driving this revival has nothing to do with nostalgia for boy band posters and everything to do with how we use our homes right now. The nineties are everywhere again, from streaming platforms to home decor accounts across social media. The IKEA museum points out that the 1990s followed a recession when homes became refuges, designed to be both comfortable and functional. Thirty years later, with cocooning and secondhand shopping both trending, that same desire for reassuring softness is resurfacing. The real challenge isn’t whether to embrace it. It’s how to capture that feeling without freezing your living room in a time capsule. ## The approach that actually works ![90s decor](https://cdn.thecoolist.com/wp-content/uploads/2026/08/victorzastolskiy.jpg) Before buying anything, choose your lane within nineties decor. One direction is the cozy country spirit built on light wood, florals, gingham checks, and slightly rustic furniture that filled suburban interiors during the decade. Another path follows the cheerful, colorful chaos of a Friends-style apartment, mixing patterns, posters, and thrifted furniture. The third major current runs through late-nineties minimalism, characterized by clean lines and neutral palettes. Once you pick a thread, translate it into concrete details. The country version relies on honey oak woods, floral motifs on walls or cushions, and displayed dishware. The eclectic apartment approach uses bold colors, open shelving filled with objects, and graphic rugs. The pared-down version features light floors, simple shapes, and few objects but generous comfort. Decorators cited by Good Housekeeping stress one principle: **keep a current foundation and limit yourself to just a few strongly marked nineties codes**. That restraint is what keeps the look fresh. ## Materials and finishes that define the era Color-wise, the 1990s favor earthy tones like beige, soft terracotta, and sage green, but also jewel tones such as burgundy or emerald green, often lifted with off-white. Bob Vila also highlights the return of lacquered textures and warm browns. For furniture, honey oak dominates the decade. Today, reserve it for a coffee table, sideboard, or shelving rather than covering an entire kitchen. Metals like brass and chrome slip onto light fixtures, handles, and small glass tables. Comfort anchors the other major marker. **Overstuffed sofas**, deep and generous, are returning to center stage. A skirted slipcover, rounded arms, and plenty of cushions immediately recreate the feeling. Skirts on beds, sofas, or even sinks, highly present in the late eighties and throughout the nineties, are being used again by decorators to add textile softness. That one detail softens hard edges and ties the room together. ## How to bring it into your space Heavily dressed walls sit at the heart of nineties interior style. **Floral or geometric wallpaper** is returning with force, carried by brands like Spoonflower that make it more accessible. To avoid a suffocating effect, decorators recommend limiting it to an entryway, powder room, or a single wall behind the bed. Wallpaper borders, signatures of the decade, are reappearing too. In 2026, the preference runs toward graphic or monochrome versions, placed at the top of a wall or to frame a door. That placement draws the eye without boxing in the room. Window treatments play a key role. Country Living describes a genuine revival of **cafe curtains**, those half-curtains that already peaked in the 1990s with rustic country style. In light linen, subtle checks, or thin stripes, they filter light while leaving the upper window clear, ideal for a kitchen or bathroom. Lace doilies are also returning. Pinterest’s trend report explains that Gen Z and Millennials are gently reminding us that more is better, especially when it’s this pretty. Slipped into a frame or transformed into cushion covers, they add that small nostalgic touch without weighing down the space. The trick is using them sparingly, so they read as intentional rather than accidental. ## What makes this version different The nineties aesthetic returning now isn’t a direct copy. It’s filtered through current sensibilities about secondhand shopping and cocooning at home. The IKEA museum’s observation connects the dots: both the early nineties and today follow periods when economic uncertainty made home a functional refuge. That’s why the comfort pieces feel relevant again, not just retro. Overstuffed sofas and skirted furniture aren’t about looking backward. They ground a room and make it feel finished, which is exactly what people want when home serves multiple purposes. If your space feels too minimal or hard-edged, borrow the nineties approach to layering texture. Add one piece of honey oak furniture. Hang cafe curtains in a kitchen. Use a single wall of floral or geometric wallpaper in a small room. Those moves create warmth without committing to a full decade reboot. The restraint is what keeps it from feeling like a set. That balance makes all the difference.]]></description> <author>contact@designremotejobs.com (DesignRemoteJobs.com)</author> <category>90sdecor</category> <category>interiordesign</category> <category>hometrends</category> <category>cocooning</category> <category>designrevival</category> <enclosure url="https://cdn.thecoolist.com/wp-content/uploads/2026/08/victorzastolskiy.jpg" length="0" type="image/jpg"/> </item> <item> <title><![CDATA[7UP's Bold New Rebrand: A Lime-First Revolution or a Step Too Far?]]></title> <link>https://www.designremotejobs.com/article/7ups-bold-new-rebrand-a-lime-first-revolution-or-a-step-too-far</link> <guid>7ups-bold-new-rebrand-a-lime-first-revolution-or-a-step-too-far</guid> <pubDate>Tue, 11 Aug 2026 18:00:35 GMT</pubDate> <description><![CDATA[Just three years after its last major rebrand, 7UP has unveiled another bold new look. But this time, it isn't just the branding that's different. The flavour of the drink itself has also been tweaked – a change that's strongly reflected in the new identity. 7UP's new look (and taste) puts **lime** in the spotlight, with the drink now referred to as "lime lemon" as opposed to "lemon and lime." No, it doesn't roll off the tongue quite so easily, although time will tell whether it actually tastes better on it. ![7UP cans](https://cdn.mos.cms.futurecdn.net/zSwnJYP2rPkw7MkVh359dC.jpg) "The debut of 7UP Lime Lemon marks the category's first lime-led formula designed to strengthen the brand's distinctiveness and appeal with a new generation of drinkers," announces Keurig Dr Pepper. "As the Original Uncola, 7UP built its reputation by challenging conventions and offering consumers something different. Today, the brand is returning to those roots with a renewed focus on differentiation, introducing a distinctive lime-forward taste and bold new visual identity designed to help the brand stand out in one of the largest segments in carbonated soft drinks." “This is a bold reinvention of one of America's most iconic soda brands for a new generation of consumers – starting with the flavor itself,” said Drew Panayiotou, Chief Marketing and Innovation Officer at Keurig Dr Pepper (KDP). “7UP has an incredible legacy, but by giving lime the spotlight, we're rewriting the rules of the lemon lime category. We are transforming a beloved heritage brand into a modern disruptor—delivering a sharper visual identity, a more refreshing taste experience, and a distinct position that attracts new users and deepens brand loyalty.” ![New 7UP rebrand](https://cdn.mos.cms.futurecdn.net/SHjKPTWyG5vjPRyFVVKkqi.jpg) The new branding is clean and striking, and like many brands over the last few years, 7UP seems to be harking back to its roots with a soft, retro wordmark. But 'lime lemon' is bound to be contentious. Like 'chalk and cheese' or 'knife and fork', 'lemon and lime' is arguably an **irreversible binomial** – which means it's a conventional phrase that doesn't sound natural the other way round. 'Lime lemon' feels vaguely heretical, like 'pepper and salt', or 'bolts and nuts'. Of course, the brand is targeting the yoof with this one. "72% of Gen Alpha and Gen Z consumers gravitate toward citrus-forward flavours", Keurig Dr Pepper says, citing this as the driving factor behind the shift towards evolving 7UP's taste to a "brighter, lime-first profile." The short and long of it is that the new drink tastes more like lime. We'll have to wait until the new formula hits the shelves to see whether Gens Z and Alpha fall heels over head for it.]]></description> <author>contact@designremotejobs.com (DesignRemoteJobs.com)</author> <category>7up</category> <category>rebrand</category> <category>branding</category> <category>design</category> <category>soda</category> <enclosure url="https://cdn.mos.cms.futurecdn.net/zSwnJYP2rPkw7MkVh359dC-1920-80.jpg" length="0" type="image/jpg"/> </item> <item> <title><![CDATA[Rediscovering Liveable Luxury: Paul Newman's 60s Parisian Living Room]]></title> <link>https://www.designremotejobs.com/article/rediscovering-liveable-luxury-paul-newmans-60s-parisian-living-room</link> <guid>rediscovering-liveable-luxury-paul-newmans-60s-parisian-living-room</guid> <pubDate>Mon, 10 Aug 2026 18:00:47 GMT</pubDate> <description><![CDATA[Quiet luxury may be on its way out, but what's taking its place? Homeowners are now embracing a balanced approach that honors high-end materials while grounding them in everyday practicality. French interior design offers the perfect blueprint for this new **liveable luxury**. Take the Parisian apartment of actors **Paul Newman** and **Joanne Woodward**, where they lived from 1960 to 1961 while filming *Paris Blues*. Though over 60 years have passed since the space was photographed, its understated Francophile elegance still feels remarkably relevant. The room combines opulent elements like **marble**, **crystal**, and a **gilded mirror** with grounding touches such as **stoneware**, **wood furnishings**, and a **woven basket**. This contrast is central to nailing 2026's favorite high-end aesthetic. The **new luxury** is all about incorporating pieces that feel emotional and evoke a sensory response. Inspired by Paul and Joanne's home, we've delved into where this shift comes from and how to use French design to bring it to life in your own space. ### Recreate Joanne and Paul's Look at Home To help you capture their style, we've curated an edit of items that echo the couple's living room decor: - **Natural Wood Storage**: A mid-century record console or bookshelf adds warmth and personality, grounding statement materials like marble. - **Ornate Mirror**: A gold-rimmed mirror with intricate detailing makes a timeless statement and visually enlarges the room. - **Vinyl Record Player**: A retro turntable brings the same good vibes and serves as a conversation piece. - **Crystal Wall Sconce**: For the glamour of a chandelier with easier installation, place these on either side of a fireplace for a cohesive look. - **Persian-Style Rug**: An ornate, washable rug in warm tones adds color and texture, anchoring the space. - **Sculptural Vase**: A sleek black glass vase adds a modern edge to any sideboard, perfect for displaying a few stems. ### The Power of Textiles and Color As seen in the Persian rug and linen tablecloth, incorporating **textiles** is essential to grounding a luxurious scheme. Megan Slack, design expert and head of Celebrity Style at *Homes & Gardens*, explains: "The natural grain of fabric is a wonderful option for grounding luxe materials like marble and gild." A **wooden sideboard** is another accent that creates a lived-in feel, adding personality while remaining down-to-earth. Adding pops of color, like the green in this space, is also crucial to escaping the quiet luxury beige bubble. Design expert Graeme Smith notes: "A well-chosen color scheme provides a versatile foundation that allows your personal style to shine through, while also creating a calm and inviting atmosphere." Though these touches may seem small, they represent a commitment to design that feels both functional and elevated. It's luxury, but designed for living.]]></description> <author>contact@designremotejobs.com (DesignRemoteJobs.com)</author> <category>liveableluxury</category> <category>frenchdesign</category> <category>interiordesigntrends</category> <category>celebrityhomes</category> <category>homedecor</category> <enclosure url="https://cdn.mos.cms.futurecdn.net/R9hJADDNEHg5HxWpSWhF7e-2560-80.jpg" length="0" type="image/jpg"/> </item> <item> <title><![CDATA[Midimalism: The New Home Design Trend That Balances Minimalism and Maximalism]]></title> <link>https://www.designremotejobs.com/article/midimalism-the-new-home-design-trend-that-balances-minimalism-and-maximalism</link> <guid>midimalism-the-new-home-design-trend-that-balances-minimalism-and-maximalism</guid> <pubDate>Sun, 09 Aug 2026 18:00:39 GMT</pubDate> <description><![CDATA[Minimalism, you may have heard, is out. Gone are those hallmarks of Millennial style: gray walls, all-white kitchens and stark, unadorned surfaces that were, perhaps, a reaction to growing up in overstuffed homes filled with decorative roosters and voluminous Roman shades. Now, as the interior design pendulum swings back to a more exuberant look — one that might even see the return of those roosters — people are embracing maximalism, a more-is-more approach that mixes colors, patterns, textures and shapes. But there's a new trend that's gaining traction: **midimalism**. It's a happy-medium interior design approach that combines the best of both worlds. A midimalist home is not as stark as a minimalist one, but not as chaotic as a maximalist one. It's a balanced, personal, and inviting space that reflects your personality without overwhelming the senses. **What is Midimalism?** Midimalism is about finding that sweet spot between minimalism and maximalism. It's about having plenty of personal touches, but not so many that the space becomes chaotic. It's about embracing color, pattern, and texture, but in a curated way. It's about creating a home that feels lived-in and warm, but not cluttered. **Key Principles of Midimalism** - **Curated Collections:** Instead of displaying everything you own, choose a few meaningful pieces that tell a story. - **Color with Restraint:** Use color to add interest, but balance it with neutral tones to avoid visual overload. - **Mix Textures:** Combine different textures like wood, metal, and fabric to add depth without clutter. - **Personal Touches:** Incorporate items that reflect your personality, such as travel souvenirs or family heirlooms, but display them thoughtfully. - **Functional Beauty:** Every item should serve a purpose or bring you joy, but not both if it creates clutter. **Why Midimalism is Trending** In a world that often feels chaotic, midimalism offers a sense of calm and order without being sterile. It's a reaction to the coldness of minimalism and the overwhelming nature of maximalism. People are looking for homes that feel authentic and comfortable, and midimalism delivers that. **How to Achieve a Midimalist Look** 1. **Start with a Neutral Base:** Use neutral colors for large surfaces like walls and floors. 2. **Add Layers of Texture:** Incorporate rugs, throws, and pillows in different materials. 3. **Choose a Focal Point:** Pick one bold piece per room to draw the eye. 4. **Edit Your Belongings:** Keep only what you love and use, but don't be afraid to display items that have meaning. 5. **Balance Patterns:** Mix patterns, but keep them in a cohesive color palette. Midimalism is not about following strict rules; it's about creating a space that feels right for you. It's a flexible approach that allows you to express your style while maintaining a sense of harmony. As the design world evolves, midimalism offers a refreshing alternative to the extremes. It's a trend that's here to stay because it's grounded in the idea that our homes should be a reflection of our lives, not a showroom. So, if you're tired of the starkness of minimalism but not ready to embrace full-on maximalism, give midimalism a try. You might just find it's the perfect balance for your home.]]></description> <author>contact@designremotejobs.com (DesignRemoteJobs.com)</author> <category>midimalism</category> <category>homedesign</category> <category>interiortrends</category> <category>minimalism</category> <category>maximalism</category> <enclosure url="https://www.washingtonpost.com/wp-apps/imrs.php?src=https://cloudfront-us-east-1.images.arcpublishing.com/wapo/LER362MAIVH6XJ6HOBOALMUT6I.jpg&w=1440" length="0" type="image/php"/> </item> <item> <title><![CDATA[From T-Shirts to Community: How Future Is Color Is Redefining Creative Spaces]]></title> <link>https://www.designremotejobs.com/article/from-t-shirts-to-community-how-future-is-color-is-redefining-creative-spaces</link> <guid>from-t-shirts-to-community-how-future-is-color-is-redefining-creative-spaces</guid> <pubDate>Sat, 08 Aug 2026 18:00:32 GMT</pubDate> <description><![CDATA[In 2020, Erwin Hines, a creative director with a background in design, found himself grappling with the murder of George Floyd and the systemic racism that permeated America. As a Black man, he felt compelled to express his emotions, and his medium of choice was a T-shirt. What began as a personal canvas for his thoughts quickly turned into a movement, selling 5,000 shirts in just two days. But Hines didn't stop there. He transformed a small garage in Barrio Logan into a gathering space, which eventually became **Future Is Color**, a collective focused on creative and cultural design, serving as a lounge, shop, listening room, and community hub. ### The Genesis of Future Is Color Hines's journey started with a simple T-shirt that read, "Respect the people, Not just the culture." The overwhelming response led him to donate all proceeds to organizations working for change. With his full-time job providing financial stability, he could afford to give back entirely. As he delved deeper into understanding systemic issues, he opened his garage doors to the community, fostering conversations and connections. "Slowly, every weekend, I would just open up the space, even if we weren’t folding shirts, just to be down there and engage in conversation," Hines recalls. This organic evolution laid the foundation for what would become a thriving creative space. ### Building a Community Hub The garage transformed into a living room-like environment, complete with couches, books, and a Bluetooth speaker. It became a place where people could hang out, read, and engage in meaningful dialogues. The introduction of music, particularly jazz, added another layer to the space's purpose. **Jazz nights** became a staple, embodying the principles of improvisation and collective harmony. "Jazz is a liberative music and framework. Improvisation is learning how to interact with people who might not be like you, but you have to come together and just improvise on how to make something beautiful," Hines explains. This philosophy extends beyond music, aiming to create **proximity** and **empathy** among diverse individuals. ### The Artistic Practice of Gathering Hines views gathering itself as an artistic medium. The **Studio Sessions** series, which includes live music, warehouse gatherings, intimate listening rooms, and open studio times, is designed to foster connection and dialogue. These sessions are not just about entertainment but about creating opportunities for people to be present with themselves and others. "It was utilizing these spaces to create opportunity for real proximity, and the music became more of a conduit for people just being together," he says. The space has also partnered with the Museum of Contemporary Art San Diego, further cementing its role as a cultural hub. ### Decentering the Founder A key aspect of Future Is Color is its deliberate effort to decenter Hines from the organization. He borrowed the name from a program he started with his sister, which aimed to educate young people about their own stories. By doing so, he ensures that the collective can be carried by others, allowing it to evolve organically. "I’m a shy dude," Hines admits. "I never wanted to be defined as just this thing, so make it something outside of yourself." This approach has allowed Future Is Color to become a community-owned entity, where anyone can take on its mantle. ### The Influence of Upbringing Hines's upbringing in Cleveland, Ohio, played a significant role in shaping his worldview. His parents owned a development company that built affordable housing, and his grandparents ran landscaping and exterminating businesses. They instilled in him the value of giving back to the community. His aunts provided him with books on Black history, nurturing a deep understanding of his heritage. "If you have, you give," he recalls. "You give from your excess, back to the community because we have this responsibility." This ethos is evident in every aspect of Future Is Color, from its educational roots to its community-focused programming. ### Rewriting the Story of Self Hines's work is rooted in the belief that "the environments we inhabit teach us who we are." He has spent years rewriting the narratives imposed by society, embracing his multidimensional identity. He acknowledges that this process is ongoing, even seeking therapy to understand himself better. "I feel free. Not in the current system, though," he says. "I feel liberated enough and free enough mentally, but not physically because of the existing system that we live in." His vision of **collective liberation** is one where everyone can experience true freedom, not just a select few. ### Looking Ahead Future Is Color continues to grow, hosting events that bring people together in meaningful ways. From jazz nights to community conversations, the space is a testament to the power of creativity and connection. As Hines puts it, "I can’t be free until everybody’s free." This philosophy drives his work, making Future Is Color a beacon of hope and a model for community-driven design. For those looking to get involved, Future Is Color offers open studio times and regular events. It's a place where art, music, and dialogue converge, creating a space for healing and growth. As Hines's journey shows, sometimes a simple T-shirt can spark a revolution, and a garage can become a sanctuary.]]></description> <author>contact@designremotejobs.com (DesignRemoteJobs.com)</author> <category>community</category> <category>design</category> <category>creative-space</category> <category>collective-liberation</category> <category>jazz</category> <enclosure url="https://www.sandiegouniontribune.com/wp-content/uploads/2026/08/SUT-L-ONEHINES-5.jpg?w=2000&h=1335" length="0" type="image/jpg"/> </item> </channel> </rss>
