If you’ve ever picked up a House Beautiful magazine, you know that it is one of the most stunning print publications dedicated to interior decor on the market. The brass lantern table topper pairs nicely with the brass ceiling chandelier, and the greenery on the coffee table plays on the gardenscape in the background. A pillow pairing that is, in fact, very similar to the Styld pillow pairings. The patterned blue area rug draws the eye straight up onto the white couch with accent pillows in varying patterns and materials.

Patterns and complimentary colors are the focal point in this Williams Sonoma living room creation. While each background would make any interior designer drool on their Italian leather couch, our favorite is this blue-hued living room with stunning picture windows and a fantastic circular chandelier. If it’s not in your budget to go crazy at this high-end retailer, then these virtual backgrounds are a great way to get that high-end style without breaking the bank. Like Serena & Lily, Williams Sonoma offers six virtual backgrounds, which makes sense given that virtual backgrounds are not their bread-and-butter.Īs we all know, Williams Sonoma products come with a pretty hefty price tag. Interior designers and interior decor retailers came to the rescue to provide clean, classic, and sophisticated backgrounds that are worthy of today’s workforce. However, not everyone wants to, or should, drop in a background from Cartoon Network or (cringe) Jersey Shore. With this new reality came an increasing need for new and sophisticated Zoom backgrounds. Zoom (and wine) have become staples in many people’s lives. Athletes were not competing in the 2020 Olympics, children were not attending school, and the concept of an office took on a whole new meaning. When we began our six part series of Interior Design Trends of 2021 in January, we were all in a much different place (both literally and metaphorically).

Because of this, virtual backgrounds have had a major influence in the interior design choices of homeowners. By simply dropping in a virtual background, users could teleport themselves to Maui, Alaska, Sonoma, and (sigh) even the set of Big Brother.

As Zoom morphed from a noun to a verb, so did the way users interacted with this virtual conferencing platform.
