Looking ahead at 2026, MSI continues to lead with thoughtful trend forecasting informed by customer demand, sales performance, and the success of MSI products in the market. Combined with inspiration from premier design events and the organic beauty of the world around us, this approach provides a holistic view of where design is headed.
MSI’s 2026 Design Trends reflect how homeowners and designers are embracing warmth, texture, and expressive materials. Some key details and benefits that stand out within this year’s home interior design trends are:
- Classic checkerboard patterns reimagined with contemporary colorways.
- Handcrafted, zellige-inspired wall tile looks with curved, natural shapes.
- Creamy Taj Mahal quartzite-inspired countertops that exude warmth.
- Biophilic inspiration with soft greens and terracotta hues.
- Classic patterns refreshed with contemporary palettes.
The following four trends have been carefully translated into high-performance surfaces that bring these color stories to life—from countertops to tile, backsplashes to flooring—and will shape the products MSI designs and launches throughout the year.
