"I believe that in 2022 we will see elements in design incorporating surrealism and fantasy," says Houston-based designer Dennis Brackeen of Dennis Brackeen Design Group. "Wallpapers have never been more on trend and with today’s technology in digital printing, I’m seeing some incredibly innovative products. Watch for new collections that will reference motifs from classical to the surreal."

This year's Kips Bay Decorator Show House Dallas also offered an early look at this emerging trend. Many rooms, like Brackeen's morning room (shown here), incorporate fantastical prints, shapes, and home accents to create a one-of-a-kind room. Ken Fulk also notably brought endless elements of fantasy to the Show House's den, blending neoclassical, astrological, and Art Deco elements for a jaw-dropping place to spend the afternoon studying or getting lost in one's own thoughts.
