The modern interior design trends for 2015 are mostly influenced by various materials such as wood, stone, glass and metal.  The reclaimed rustic wood, natural light wood, colorful-stained wood and other exotic types of wood are in style for 2015. The modern types of decorative accessories, furniture and fixtures are usually made from the combination of wood, glass and metal. The structure and foundation of the modern lighting fixtures, sofas, tables, chairs and beds are made of metals. Gold, bronze and stones like granite and marble add a sense of elegance to the interior. As the most luxurious stone used in interior designs, white marble describes one of the most stunning and sophisticated interior material trends for 2015.
A home turns to look modern and eco-friendly at the same time when the natural and exotic designs, elements, and patterns are combined with the unique pieces of furniture with natural shapes and surfaces. Some modern furniture such as bed headboard and tables are incorporated with spaces for plants. Room dividers with lattice style, indoor water features and green walls with large glass windows also provide additional eco-friendly ambiance. Leather is popularly used for modern furniture upholstery. Washed linens are ideal for bed covers, blankets, lampshades and sofas.
Colors

Natural color schemes with eye-catching accents are ideal for modern interior designs. The soft pastels and natural colors of rooms with hints of black, gray and creamy white color shades recreate classic ideas for contemporary interior designs. Another option is the fusion of cold shades of brown with a touch of granite gray and leafy green. Additionally, light and deep purple, rich blue and pink, mustard yellow and mauve are some of the modern color combination trends that bring out striking contrasts in interior designs for 2015.
