Trend Report: 90’s Nostalgia Is Back With a Bang!

The 1990s may not seem like that long ago for most of us, but there’s been an increasing appetite across the fashion, beauty, and interior design industries for 90’s nostalgia, with the hashtag #ninetiesdesign, having a serious renaissance on Instagram.

Though 90’s interiors are usually associated with bright geometrics and almost surrealist imagery, the new take on the 90’s leads with a timeless, more sophisticated style.

Enter Frasurbane. It’s a term coined by thanks to the late 1990’s sitcom Fraser and urban design. Frasurbane is a conservative iteration of the grunge era, featuring watered-down surrealist shapes and earth tones.

Warmth and luxury are key to Frasurbane when so many people are eager to incorporate these elements into their home interiors.

At Michael Murphy Home Furnishing, we’re dishing out our top tips below on how to incorporate Frasurbane into your home:

1) Wood Paneling
You can go the whole hog and do wall to wall paneling, or go for something more subtle and succinct like this gorgeous paneled sink area.

2) Overstuffed Leather Sofas
There’s nothing more 90’s than a slouchy leather sofa. Look for options with double cushioned armrests and tanned, supple leather to be bang on trend.
