Decorating the Christmas tree is perhaps one of the best group holiday activities, and Selena Gomez and Benny Blanco have proven it with their layered approach to collaging their tree.

The couple recently shared a clip to Instagram of them adorning their tree with ornaments, and we had to take a moment to admire the glass ornaments, white lights, and multi-colored accessories, which all tap into the ever-popular nostalgic Christmas trend. Needless to say, it's giving us some fabulous Christmas tree ideas.

To get the look, collect an assortment of playful and elegant pieces; this citrus garland (from McGee & Co) is a great match for the orange decor Benny and Selena put on their tree, while these glass ornaments (from Magnolia) add a dainty, delicate touch to the robust pine tree.

'Selena and Benny's Christmas tree perfectly balances whimsy and sophistication. The thoughtful layering of textures, colors, and ornament shapes creates a dynamic yet cohesive look that feels both nostalgic and fresh,' comments Megan Slack, the head of Celebrity Style at Homes & Gardens.

'Every detail, from the choice of glass ornaments to playful garlands, shows how intentional styling can elevate even a modest tree into a stunning centerpiece. It is an excellent example of how a carefully curated approach to holiday decorating can be both visually striking and entirely replicable at home.'

Small spaces can have a big impact. With the correct styling, the tiniest and most awkward spaces can become the boldest and most alluring in the home.

For proof, look to Benny Blanco's dining nook. The producer's team at bonVIVANT Interiors transformed a bijou corner into a striking celebration of kilim prints. It features a red Persian rug and chairs upholstered with a red geometric pattern, creating a seamless transition between the two.

To soften the pattern-drenching, the team painted the walls white and emphasized the chairs with a relatively neutral dining table. They then used a piece of pink and black art in a white frame to bring out different colors in the rug designs.

Though Benny's space is singularly beautiful, the success of pattern drenching in his space signals exactly why it's gaining popularity as an emerging interior design trend for 2026. This look is especially striking in a dining area.

Transform any corner with the use of red accents and a variety of pattern. Here are a few of our favorite pieces for nailing the look.

James Piling, interiors expert, explains the 'drenching' trend, stating: 'Layering is key to creating a cozy, welcoming space. Pattern drenching, where rich patterns on wallpaper, upholstery, or table linens are mixed together, can create a bold, layered look that feels incredibly welcoming.'

He advises: 'For a modern take, using abstract shapes or hand-drawn stripes can avoid a traditional, old-fashioned feel.'

The use of red in Benny Blanco's dining room also helps to enhance the warm and inviting aura of the space. If you are going to try pattern drenching, red is a great color to start with.

James says: 'Red brings a sense of vibrancy and warmth that's perfect for the autumn season. You can easily add small, impactful touches with red tableware, cushions, or a single statement chair to make your dining area feel instantly ready for the season.'

The layering of different patterns, colors and textures has a certain magic that no other technique can capture. It's no wonder that it's trending.

Entertainment rooms are the adult version of a playroom. However, this doesn't mean that the decor needs to be childish. Benny Blanco's luxe movie room is the perfect example of how to make an entertainment space simultaneously fun and elevated.

The producer's movie room idea was created by designer Keefe Butler of Studio Bad, inspired by Paris's Odeon Theater and Old Hollywood aesthetics. It's rich with sumptuous texture, from the redwood on the ceiling to the velvet on the walls to the patchwork sofas in front of the movie screen. A home bar has been converted into a full candy bar with dispensers for every type of sweet imaginable. Blanco's light wood ping pong table provides extra space for fun. Though the design is over-the-top, it never falls into the trap of feeling overwhelming. Instead, it's whimsical and kitschy in the best way possible.

Part of what makes Blanco's media room so appealing is that it is grounded by its supreme coziness. To add warmth to your own entertainment space, the experts at Sofology recommend a focus on lighting. They state: 'Create a sense of intimacy and elegance with carefully placed ambient lighting around the room and on small side tables within reach.'

For recreating Blanco's space, a focus on promoting actual comfort alongside the appearance of comfort will go far. In terms of cozy decorating ideas, the Sofology team recommends: 'Rugs, throws and cushions won't just elevate the space but will go some way in improving acoustics, restricting unwanted noise and reducing echo. Deep seats, wide arms, and reclined positions saved to memory add a sumptuous side of luxury to any homemade theatre space.'

Everyone knows that the snacks are the best part of going to the movies, so don't forget to build the capability for food into your entertainment space. You could modernize a home bar, as Blanco's team has done, or incorporate a popcorn cart for a fun, vintage feel.

Why go out to the movies when you can make a space that is so much more beautiful at home? Benny Blanco's entertainment space is the perfect inspiration.

Benny Blanco's recent engagement with Selena Gomez has seen the record producer at the front of every news outlet – but what about the home behind the headlines? Thankfully for us, it's a designer-lover dream.

The product of Blanco's creative lead (in collaboration with Rachel Leigh Ward and Dana M. Vitrano of BonVivant Interiors), his LA abode defines eclecticism in every sense of the word.

The maximalist home is a celebration of 'curated chaos.' a design trend that encourages us to get playful with contrasting patterns and mismatched furniture – while keeping our spaces tasteful. Inevitably, striking a balance can be tricky, but Blanco's living room is a masterclass in making it look effortless.

In this space (which, with the addition of a large stereo and sound system, appears to double as a music room), Blanco has layered an ornate rug with a green botanical sofa – two clashing patterns that unconventionally work in harmony. It's no surprise, then, that designers swear by a similar pattern-clashing method.

'One of the best places to start when bringing color and pattern into the home is with a floor covering, setting the tone and anchoring the rest of the space. A beautiful rug can give you a palette or a sounding board for the rest of the room,' comments designer Matthew Williamson.

'You could pick out specific colors from the weave and take them onto the walls, into the soft furnishings, and even up onto the ceiling for a dramatic look. You could also experiment with pattern, pairing a leopard print rug with a striking floral wallpaper or sofa.'

Blanco's layered patterns have an almost retro feel, but according to Paul Fleming, the managing director of Fleming & Howland, an eclectic space (such as this) is shaping how we decorate contemporary homes.

According to research by Pinterest, an increasing number of consumers are looking to combine great quality and quirky pieces of furniture with a modern way of living that works for them. Searches on the platform for ‘eclectic interior design vintage’ have surged by 850% year on year, while searches for inspiration on how to style ‘maximalist decor vintage’ are also up by 350%.

'Where some see garish, others see bold. Where some see bland, others see understated. There is no monopoly on beauty. For us, beauty is found in the obsessive pursuit of elegance in shape and form,' Fleming comments.

According to Fleming, clashing patterns, just as Blanco has done, is an impactful way to tap into this 'curated chaos' look. And following suit is easier than you might initally expect.

'Committing to clashing patterns can be a scary thought, but this design choice is one most favored by maximalists. The biggest thing to remember is that everything can be neutral if you let it be,' he says.

'The scale of the pattern is something to keep in mind when choosing which ones to use. Try to ensure that one pattern is bigger and more complex and the other more simpler or much smaller, as this will make pairing them much easier. For example, a busy floral will work well with a clean stripe, while a botanic-style pattern can easily be paired with a polka dot or spotty print.'

'Opposites attract when it comes to clashing prints and colors, so turn to the trusty color wheel for advice if stuck on which colors should (or shouldn’t) be paired together. Or, throw out the rule book and do what you want!'

When it comes to living room decor, I typically prefer to keep furnishings simple and neutral. I tend to implement color and pattern with accessories such as rugs, hanging art, and candles.

However, Benny Blanco's showstopping sofa has me reconsidering my living room design ideas. His large, green patterned sofa, as seen in a snap shared by his interior designers, Dana Vitrano and Rachel Leigh Ward of bonVivant Interiors, is the perfect foil against his white walls. A piece of art hanging above serves as another focal point in the space.

The designer revealed that the living room sofa is custom upholstered with House of Hackney fabric, but many printed and patterned sofas on the market do not require a DIY. Whether you try to customize an existing sofa or purchase a pre-patterned one, styling is key to ensuring it looks sleek and appealing.

First and foremost, when incorporating a statement piece sofa in a space, it is paramount to consider the size of the room. While Blanco's sofa is considerably large, a couch of this size might look out of place in a room that just barely fits it. Ensure that there is ample empty space surrounding the sofa, so that it does not appear that it has been squeezed in.

Additionally, consider the existing styling of your living space. Are the walls painted a bright color, or an eggshell hue? Do you already have an eccentric coffee table, or a bold bookcase? If so, a statement sofa, like Blanco's, might look too busy in a space that is already favoring unique decor.

I recommend placing a statement sofa in a neutral (and modifiable) space. That's not to say that it has to be boring though; textured, natural materials such as rattan and linen pair beautifully with the softness of a sofa, and would look especially beautiful next to a deep green one like Blanco's.

It is also important to choose a pattern that speaks to you. Florals are a classic for a reason, but they are not for everyone. Plaid and stripes are also fantastic options, and can make a space feel preppy or coastal depending on the sofa's color palette.

We love Blanco's ornate, nature-inspired sofa, and the specks of gold can easily be paired with gold accents in a living space, such as a lamp, picture frame, or even coffee table legs.

Alternatively, for those who are not ready to embrace a fully patterned sofa, try experimenting with colors and textures instead. Velvet sofas are trendy yet timeless, while we have seen colors such as orange and pink pop up as part of the enduring dopamine decor trend.

Below, find a statement sofa and some neutral accessories to achieve the Benny Blanco look.

I also recommend keeping throw pillows and blankets to a minimum with a statement sofa, so that it remains a clear and uncluttered focal point in the living space.

No matter your decor style, a patterned sofa like Blanco's can give your home an elevated, design-led feel.

Just because hallways are not full rooms doesn't mean they must be boring. These transitional spaces can create room to be playful and explore designs that feel too bold for larger rooms. Benny Blanco's home provides one of the best examples we've ever seen.

The music producer's hallway idea, designed by bonVIVANT Interiors, incorporates two bold design statements: wallpaper and a gallery wall. A crystal chandelier and a luggage rack provide hotel-style beauty down the hallway. The wallpaper stretches across the ceiling and is the perfect complement to the hardwood floors and the black-painted edging of the room.

Experts adore the look of Benny Blanco's modern hallway. Kathy Kuo, NYC-based interior designer states: 'I love the idea of going really bold and unexpected in the in-between spaces like hallways. Extending the wallpaper to the ceiling is a really fun, dramatic touch and the gallery wall feels both intentional and curated, as well as really organic and personal. The final touch that brings the space together? The oh-so-chic light fixture!'

The combination of wallpaper with a gallery wall can have brilliant effects in any hallway. Dallas-based interior designer Gaia Guidi Filippi states: 'Decorating hallways is an excellent way to showcase overflow art or smaller pieces you may not have an ideal spot for. First of all, a gallery wall is timeless and works for so many styles and homes. These often overlooked areas can become conversational and engaging parts of the home.'

She continues, 'This not only adds depth and interest but also allows guests to continually discover new aspects of your personality as they move through your home. By extending your style beyond the main living areas, you can have a sort of immersive environment that feels distinctly yours. So, don’t limit your creative expression to the primary rooms; adorn every space with what you love and make it unmistakably your own.

Furthermore, this look is set to become an interior design trend of 2024. Filippi says, 'Combining colorful wallpaper with a gallery wall in less obvious spaces, like this one, can really offer a striking and personalized design statement. This look aligns perfectly with the current trend of embracing maximalism, where all things “you do you" are celebrated. Wallpaper alone can infuse a room with personality, but adding an eclectic mix of art makes the space truly unique and reflective of your taste, your travels and collections, your own special sauce.'

Transitional rooms are some of the most underutilized spaces in the home, but, with the right care, they can be some of the most beautiful. Benny Blanco's hallway is just one wonderful example.

It's not common for a closet to stop us in our tracks, but Benny Blanco's closet does just that.

The music producer and songwriter's clothing storage space is no normal closet idea: it's color-drenched in deep, mauve-pink pain, with pink carpets and a pink armchair. Blanco's walls are a showcase of effective built-ins, from stylish drawers to mirrored closets and open shelves for accessories. A vanity with bright lights adds a bit of fun, while a crystal chandelier brings a sense of classic luxury.

'In the world of music production, Benny Blanco is renowned for his creative genius and unique flair. This same ingenuity is evident in his meticulously designed, pink-toned closet, which stands as a testament to both functionality and style,' says Nina Lichtenstein, Westchester-based interior designer of the dressing room. She continues, 'Combining practicality with an unmistakable touch of luxury, Blanco’s closet is not just a space for clothing but a statement of personal elegance and innovative design.'

Furthermore, the way the space is designed as a playful room for getting ready, rather than a space of pure function, is becoming an interior design trend of 2024. Lichtenstein tells Homes & Gardens: 'As we look to the future, it’s clear that the influence of such innovative designs will continue to grow. The trend towards dressing room-style closets, characterized by their unique color schemes and sophisticated organization, is likely to inspire many. Benny Blanco’s closet is not just a personal triumph; it’s a glimpse into the future of luxurious, personalized home design.'

The popularity of Blanco's look stems from the fact that it is both functional and stunning. First, it's a treasure trove of home organizing ideas. 'Blanco’s closet is a masterclass in organization, cleverly integrating a variety of storage solutions that cater to different needs,' says Lichtenstein. She continues, 'The mix of closed cabinetry and open shelves provides the perfect balance between display and discretion. The closed cabinets are ideal for storing items that benefit from protection against dust and light, while the open shelves can showcase his favorite pieces, turning them into a visual feature. Pull-out sections and drawers offer additional storage options, keeping everything neatly in place and easily accessible.'

The unparalleled style of the walk-in closet enhances these effects. Lichtenstein states: 'The choice of pink carpeting, paint, and accents in Blanco’s closet is both bold and sophisticated. Pink, often associated with creativity and calmness, creates a warm and inviting atmosphere. It complements the organization of the space by providing a unified backdrop that ties together the various elements. The pink tones are echoed in the sitting area, which features a plush chair and ottoman, creating a cozy space that invites relaxation and contemplation. Adding to this luxurious vibe is a statement crystal chandelier hanging over the sitting area, its sparkling facets casting a soft, elegant glow and elevating the entire room's ambiance.'

She continues, 'The color scheme also highlights the meticulous organization, making each section stand out while maintaining a cohesive look. The pink elements soften the overall aesthetic, adding a touch of playfulness without compromising on elegance. This balance between functionality and style is what sets Blanco’s closet apart, making it a true reflection of his personality and taste.'

With Benny Blanco's dressing room as the blueprint, we're excited to see what closet organization looks like going forward.

The harmony in Benny Blanco's home is perfect for a musician. Though each piece is stunningly unique, they all come together in a deliciously complex, beautifully layered song.

The songwriter/producer's living room is an artful mix of modern and vintage pieces, swathed in House of Hackney fabric. His space was dreamt up by the talented BonVIVANT interiors, and it's truly a work of art. Custom marble, brass, and wood textures come together against white walls for an intriguing effect.

'What's the most striking to me in this moody living room space is how pattern and texture create so many visual anchor points, despite the fact that the color scheme is daily subdued,' says acclaimed NYC interior designer Kathy Kuo. She continues, 'The mix of prints and textures feels very 1970s in a very intentional and artful way. I also especially like the combination of curved furniture and decor pieces with many cleaner and sharper lined ones. There's a really interesting study in contrasts going on at every level in this room.'

In addition to the layering of textures, the living room colors make strong statement, despite their subdued nature. Nina Lichtenstein, Westchester-based interior designer says: 'The color scheme in Blanco’s living room is both intriguing and inviting, drawing the eye and sparking curiosity. The green floral print couch serves as the room’s anchor, introducing a natural and calming hue that sets the tone. This green is complemented by the glowing natural stone console table, whose earthy tones add warmth and texture to the room.'

She adds: 'The designer’s choice of metal tables in two different finishes and shapes cleverly highlights the colors in the stone console table, creating an artful link between the elements. The metal finishes, while distinct, do not clash; instead, they enhance the room’s eclectic charm by reflecting light and adding a touch of industrial chic.'

We can take several lessons in how to design a living room from Blanco's space. Lichtenstein says: 'Benny Blanco’s living room is a brilliant example of how to layer patterns effectively. The focal point, a green floral print couch, introduces a lively and vibrant element to the room. This bold choice is expertly balanced by the neutral patterned rug underfoot, which subtly echoes the intricate designs without overwhelming the senses. Another striking feature is the glowing natural stone console table, which, holding turntables, calls attention to Blanco’s main interest as a record producer and songwriter, adding both visual and thematic harmony to the space.'

She continues, 'The key to the designer’s success lies in the thoughtful juxtaposition of contrasting but complementary colors and patterns. While the floral couch adds a burst of nature-inspired energy, the similar patterns and harmonizing colors in the rug ground the room, creating a stable foundation for the other elements. This interplay ensures that each piece stands out while contributing to the overall harmony of the space.'

We tracked down Blanco's exact coffee table and wall sconce to make recreating his look easy. His sofa is custom, but Perigold sells decorative pillows in the same velvet House of Hackney wallpaper. Pair them with a white sofa to create a similar effect.

The perfect space can't be easily summed up in only a few words. Benny Blanco's living room is a testament to this.

'I’m seriously considering covering my bathroom in photos of bathrooms that I’ve taken,' says Jenna Peffley, the photographer who recently shot Benny Blanco's powder room. When the space looks like this, we have to agree with her.

The songwriter and producer's bathroom idea is one of the chicest we've ever seen. Designed by bonVIVANT INTERIORS, Blanco's space incorporates a stylish blend of vintage pieces and prints with modern silhouettes and lines. His bathroom features an organically shaped marble sink and a baroque-style mirror juxtaposed with white-shaded wall sconces and a modern checked hand towel. Floral House of Hackney Wallpaper enhances the whole look.

Though the whole space is stunning, experts especially love the effect of Blanco's bathroom wallpaper. Jennifer Ebert, color expert and digital editor at Homes & Gardens says: 'The orange, purple, and turquoise wallpaper gives Benny Blanco's bathroom a rich and storied feel. The white paint on the window and the white of the marble sink ground the strong shades and keep them from looking too heavy. The complex pattern of the paper brings visual interest to the entire space.'

Furthermore, Blanco's design scheme is set to become a popular interior design trend this year. 'As we look ahead to Summer 2024, the world of the interior is embracing a delightful fusion of bold patterns, eclectic accessories, and mixed textures,' says Kelly Jackson, Principal Interior Designer, and Creative Director at ONLYCHILD Studio.

She continues, 'Using exaggerated prints and patterns in your home can make a major statement! A small space can be dramatically elevated with a bold and striking pattern or two, whether it's by using wallpaper, tiling, or even a rug.' The bathroom walls are the perfect place to explore this look.

For those hoping to emulate Blanco's trendsetting look, Jackson says the real style comes through in the details. She recommends, 'Incorporating accessories that match or echo your patterns and shapes is a great way of tying your spaces together, a curved or angular vase or plant pot that has a similar shape to the prints on the cushions for example.' We see this in Blanco's home with the way the gold leaf vines on the gilded mirror echo the curling leaves printed on his wallpaper.

The internet's new favorite couple has lots in common, from their musical backgrounds to their mutual celebrity friends, but one major commonality between Selena Gomez and Benny Blanco is their affinity for the kitchen.

Between Selena's stint as an amateur cook on the HBO series Selena + Chef and Benny's Instagram cooking show, the two have spent ample time concocting tasty dishes in the kitchen. While they experiment with their recipes, a recent photo of the two in her kitchen revealed that traditional design is here to stay.

The space features all-white wall tiles, white cabinetry, and white lighting fixtures, a classic kitchen design that gives off a clean, minimal look. The all-white kitchen begs the question of being overdone, but experts seem to think they are a timeless design choice.

'Many people think that white kitchens are passé as the interior design world has moved onto mid-tone and dark paint colors for cabinetry, and stained wood cabinets are making a comeback,' says interior designer Stefana Silber. 'But in the real world, white kitchens are still king.'

White kitchens are highly adaptable and able to be personalized; the blue ceramic plates hanging on the tiled walls in Selena's kitchen add a touch of color and personality to the otherwise monochromatic scheme, demonstrating the benefits of this style.

'A white kitchen is a safe and classic choice. It may not be the latest trend, but it's never out of style,' she says. 'It fits in various design styles and provides a blank canvas to decorate around. In an open floor plan setting, it takes away the worry of having to coordinate furnishings and finishings with it. The choices of flooring or seating are endless with the white cabinet color.'

White cabinets are also incredibly simple to care for, as opposed to colored or textured cabinetry.

'Something very few people think about is the inevitable cracking of crown molding as wood contracts and expands with the seasons and the house settles,' Stefana explains. 'Having white cabinets means a simple swipe of caulk every year to cover the cracks. If you have color-painted or stained wood cabinets, the solution is not so simple.'

Cabinets aside, we're investing in this timeless hue with these picks below.

Producer, musician, and self-made chef Benny Blanco divides his time between creating infectious beats and trendy meals; it makes sense, then, that the space he makes food in is sleek, sophisticated, and notably all-white.

The all-white kitchen is the workhorse of culinary spaces. Bright and full of possibility, these open spaces can be a canvas for minimalist decor or a breath of fresh air amidst busier rooms in a home. 

While a white kitchen's outward appearance can be simple and uniform, there are a few considerations to keep in mind when putting one together. First and foremost, how to keep it clean and pristine. 

'White doesn't hide much, so keeping on top of your cleaning is a must if you like the look of an all-white kitchen,' explains interior designer Floss Kelly. 'Use gentle, non-abrasive cleaners to avoid scratching surfaces. If you are going to build a new kitchen, I strongly recommend carefully choosing easy-to-clean materials like high-quality tiles for backsplashes and quartz or marble for countertops; even if the price tag is a little steeper, it truly makes upkeep more manageable and keeps the kitchen looking its best for longer.'

Once you have committed to keeping it clean, next comes the excitement of decorating your white kitchen. To avoid the space feeling sterile, Floss recommends playing with different finishes and textures to create depth and visual interest in the space. She says that matte finishes on cabinets, glossy tiles for the backsplash, or a textured marble countertop are all good options.

Despite the uniformity, non-white details aren't off the table if they are done tastefully. 'Wood accents, whether in the form of floating shelves, a statement wooden table, or even wooden utensil holders, are a simple way to bring warmth and a natural feel without taking over the all-white look,' she suggests. 'Or, you can use metallic finishes like brass or chrome for hardware and fixtures to add a touch of elegance and contrast with modern elements.' 

All in all, monochromatic white kitchens are a subtly elegant and easily adaptable design choice. Below, see our picks for some Benny Blanco-inspired white kitchenware.
