4 Ways Antler Art Enhances Home Design
How these carefully crafted pieces align perfectly with 2024 design trends
In 2024, elements of rustic design are poised to become a staple in homes across the world. This year, it’s all about warm hues, cozy furnishing and authentic pieces, and antler art pieces fit seamlessly into these trends.
Here, we address the 2024 design trends of layered finishes, neutral tones, artisanal designs and handmade features and how antler art, at the intersection of modern aesthetics and traditional craftsmanship, is a perfect fit.
Layered Furnishings
Current interiors are featuring eclectic, found pieces paired with modern objects. This styled layering creates a complex, personal aesthetic, giving the room an intriguing personality. The layered furnishing trend is quite flexible and allows the designer to mix and match their favorite styles into one space.
Modern antler chandeliers actualize this trend by using natural deer or elk antlers shaped into less traditional designs. Offering a unique blend of past and present, an antler art piece can fit seamlessly into any style.
Handmade Features
People are looking to distinguish their spaces with unique features. In a world where mass produced pieces seem to be the only option, antler art pieces offer a unique, custom made alternative.
From sconces to sculptures, antler art is produced by Mother Nature herself and one would be hard-pressed to find a more authentic, unique piece.
Warmer Hues
Warm hues have been growing in popularity for several years. And in 2024, brown is becoming the statement color in home decor. Interior designers are anticipating a surge in brown, mossy green, and amber shades, which naturally align with traditional rustic designs.
Authentic antlers come in a variety of shades, from light tan to deep brown, and are finished in a way that brings out a range of these natural hues. An antler lamp, with an antler base and rawhide lamp shade, is a wonderful way to incorporate warm shades of brown into your space.
Artisanal Designs
Designers are noticing a growing preference for “imperfectly perfect” designs, encompassing American folk art and unique elements. Appreciation for handmade, antique and vintage items crafted with genuine consideration and care is once again on the rise.
Antler chandeliers often combine natural elements with handcrafted iron accents. Depending on the materials and design, these antler art pieces can suit modern, traditional, or industrial designs, bringing a unique artisanal addition to the space.
