Nature-inspired finishes never go out of style, but this year Mother Nature is perfectly on-trend.

‣ MyFixitUpLife Formica_15-6317 Weathered Cement 3 design trends myfixituplife
If you want the look of a concrete countertop, but without the hassle of making one, take a peek at this Weathered Cement from Formica. Yes, Formica.

I’m always a fan of Mother Nature.

Whenever I’m struggling to pinpoint an idea, or feeling under-the-weather, or just need a mental pause from the busyness of life, she delivers the inspiration, comfort, and relaxation I need.

All good reasons to take our design cues from her centuries of expertise in creating magical, breath-taking vistas, and intimate, detailed nooks. She’s got color palettes for days, and can design to impress and to decompress.

It makes sense that she is inspiring design trends for us to use natural surfaces and textures in our homes. We all have way too much screen time.

While I was at the Kitchen & Bath Industry Show (KBIS) in Vegas, I delighted in seeing a few new patterns from our friends at Formica. Inspired by nature, and bringing that feeling of warmth into our homes.

Another thing I love about these new looks, is the performance. Formica’s new looks is have EliteForm technology which is supreme scratch resistance and durability to stand up to the wear and tear of even our daily life.
