It’s time to shine with the urban 90s interior design style! If you’re a fan of the 90s, then this style is definitely for you. Remember that time of wide-legged trousers, navel shirts, Spice Girls, and the first mobile phones? It was a time when the internet was just beginning and there was no social media yet. You only went inside when the lampposts came on, and you knew where your friends were not through an app or a story on Insta, but by the bikes on the driveway in front of their house. Oh, those good old days! Do you miss them too? Well, don’t! The urban 90s interior living style brings all that nostalgia back to your living room. In this Floer blog, you will learn to recognize this living trend: an urban 90s interior.
What does an urban 90s interior look like?
A mix of raw urban elements with a touch of retro is what defines this style. Forget about minimalist furniture and cool tones, and instead transform your living room into a funky 90s work of art. Think graffiti, neon lights, dark colours, and funky patterns, and incorporate them into your prints, patterns, materials, and accessories. Combine furniture with clean lines and geometric shapes. An eye-catching sofa in a brightly coloured fabric is sure to attract attention. Add a few cushions with unique patterns and prints to give your living room a real nineties vibe.
Colour has to dare
In an urban 90s interior, rough and rugged materials such as steel, concrete, and wood take center stage. These are complemented by bright colours, clean lines, and sleek furniture. Move over, living trend hotel chic, and say hello to the bold, colourful, and eye-catching style of urban 90s interior design. Whether you want to go all out or keep it simple, this style will definitely make your living room stand out. So, embrace the colourful vibe and make it your own!
Never say NO to neon
What makes an urban 90s interior complete? Neon lights, of course! Add some eye-catching neon lights to the walls, choosing neon letters with fun texts to complete that funky vibe. Take inspiration from Floer customers who have combined colours, materials, and accents to bring the cool, urban 90s living trend to the fore. They paired a Whalebone Vinyl floor, as special and unique as the living style itself, to create the perfect ensemble. This combination is the icing on the cake, dotting the i’s and licking your fingers. Graffiti was hugely popular in the 90s and is a must-have in an urban 90s interior. Let your creativity run wild and create your own graffiti artwork on the wall, or choose wallpaper with a graffiti print, which is easier and just as cool. Finish it off with a cool frame to create the most original artwork in your home!
Funk it up, go for Floer
A floor that complements the urban 90s interior living style should be unique and not commonly seen. This matches the unique aspect of this living style. Consider combining this bright trend with a dark wooden floor from the Whalebone Laminate flooring collection. This collection offers special laminate flooring with an XL herringbone size and a unique colour that perfectly matches the characteristics of an urban 90s interior.
Rough concrete-look vinyl
Another option for an urban-style living room is a vinyl floor with a concrete-like look. This pairs well with the raw, urban elements of the style and creates a rugged look. Adding a large rug with funky patterns can turn your living room into a true urban hotspot. The concrete-like appearance of the vinyl tile floor adds character to your home. Since the floor has a neutral colour, it can create contrast with the rest of your interior. By experimenting with contrast, textures, lighting, and plants, you can further enhance the room and create a cozy atmosphere that suits your unique style.
