From terrazzo finishes to ball-shaped pillows and beyond, here’s what a few interior designers had to say.

“Instead of floors or countertops, introduce terrazzo in furniture pieces or accessories,” says designer Cagney Krzywosinski. “Try a terrazzo coffee or accent table or even a planter for a more cost-effective alternative that’s easier to replace should this trend dwindle out.”

Stick with couches that have clean, classic lines instead. “Rectilinear shapes will age more gracefully than sofas with over-scaled arms,” explains designer Christopher Maya.

“Pillows make great decor pieces because they are comfy and easy to change out—unless it’s a ball,” says Dumais. “It’s hard to stick a ball in your linen closet for a season or to find a fresh cover for it, and they aren’t that comfortable.”
