Best interior design blogs 2022: the ultimate list

Blogs are one of the best gifts of the internet. Anything you could ever need to learn, you can find it on a blog somewhere. And interior design is no exception. Prior to getting my interior design certification from the Interior Design Institute, I learned all I could from blogs. And even now, they’re such a great way to stay up-to-date on all the latest trends and techniques. So I put together this massive list of the best interior design blogs to help you find the inspiration you’re looking for.

And I’ve broken it up to make it easier for you to find exactly what you’re looking for. There are so many different facets to interior design, and so many subgroups of blogs, so I tried to reflect that in this list.

But before you start, make sure you subscribe here at Homey Homies to get your fix of content on interior design with personality!

You can click through the following to find what you’re looking for:

These are great references to stay hip on new developments in the industry. Whether you’re an interior designer yourself, or you just love to experiment with your own home.

best interior design trend blog: clever by AD

Clever by AD

I had to include this blog as #1 on this list, because it’s my absolute favorite.

Clever is a blog created by Architectural Digest, so you can be sure that they know their shit.

This blog has anything from new trend alerts, to tours of some of the best everyday design you’ve ever seen, design tips, product recommendations, and more.

Homey Homies

A little shameless self-promotion. I created homey homies to be the #1 resource on design with personality. Here, we keep tabs on the latest trends and design styles, but with a focus on using them in a way that reflects your own personal style.

Apartment Therapy interior design blog homepage

Apartment Therapy

Apartment Therapy is a great blog if you’re looking for really practical advice on how to create the best home you can. It’s a good mix of industry trends and inspiration.

What I really like about this blog is how it is really curated to smaller rental spaces. There is definitely inspiration here for everyone, but it’s great that so much of the advice can be applied even if you don’t have some massive, expensive place.

Design milk interior design home page

Design Milk

In contrast to the last blog, Design Milk is a really good reference for industry trends rather than focusing on practical advice necessarily.

If you’re a professional interior designer, this is definitely something you want to add to your list of resources. They cover everything from interior design to architecture to product design and more.

They dive really deep into tips for the creative process, so it’s a great reference for any creative.

Coco Cozy

I was conflicted whether to include this on the lifestyle list or trends, but ultimately decided to put it here.

Coco Cozy is run by Colette “Coco” Shelton. And it’s got tons of tips not only on the latest trends, but also practical advice that you can implement in your own home.

It originally started as a documentation of Coco’s home renovation, and it’s just evolved from there.

OLD BRAND NEW

I found Dabito, the founder of OLD BRAND NEW, on Instagram and I’m so glad I did.

He has such a unique point of view and uses color in such a good way; the spaces he creates are bright and colorful, but still somehow understated and mature.

On the blog, he shares some amazing interior design inspiration, of course, but he also shares beautiful images from his travels.

He even has his “Jukebox” series where he shares curated playlists for the season.

Truly everything you could want in a blog, I think.
