In the changing landscape of interior design, ethnic home decor is no longer just a trend, it’s a statement. As people seek authenticity and character in their living spaces, pieces rooted in tradition and culture rise to the forefront. For homes seeking elegance with soul, Treasure Pakistan offers curated selections that blend Pakistani craftsmanship with timeless style.
Ethnic Home Decor Trends to Watch in 2026
More homeowners are choosing handmade home accessories and cultural home decoration over mass-produced pieces. Authentic artisanal home décor adds sustainability, character, and the story behind every object. This shift towards cultural richness is expected to dominate home styling in 2026, as people seek pieces that connect them to heritage, celebrate craftsmanship, and offer a timeless alternative to fast-changing décor fads. Items with cultural depth are also viewed as investments that add both beauty and meaning to modern living spaces.
Key trends driving ethnic home decor in 2026 include:
- Growing preference for artisanal home decor that highlights individual craftsmanship.
- Demand for sustainable materials such as wood, onyx, and natural fabrics.
- Use of traditional Pakistani decor elements to bring colour and personality into modern homes.
- A shift towards handmade home accessories that feel unique and carry cultural stories.
Featured Collections: How to Bring Tradition into Modern Homes
Below are Treasure Pakistan’s top recommendations for home decor in 2026:
Truck Art: A Burst of Colour for Modern Spaces
Truck art involves bright colours, intricate patterns, and cultural symbolism. These pieces instantly add personality and vibrancy to any room.
Top Picks: wall hangings, trays, lanterns, coffee tables, spoon sets, tea coasters, trunks
Design Tips: Use a tray or lantern with bold truck-art motifs on a neutral side table for a focal point. Hang a wall piece above a sofa to contrast with plain upholstery, letting the artwork pop.
Onyx Craft: Luxury in Stone
Onyx brings elegance and durability. It’s ideal for those who love natural materials and refined finishes.
Top Picks: chess boards, wine glasses, fruit sets, vases, ashtrays, pen holders, marble dice
Design Tips: Pair onyx fruit bowls or wine glasses with brass or copper accents to elevate the look. Use an onyx chess board as both décor and function on a coffee table.
Camel Skin Craft: Light That Tells a Story
Camel skin creations merge form and function. Lamps and decorative shapes made this way carry rustic charm and cultural roots.
Top Picks: bottle lamps, round lamps, surahis, star-shaped lamps, glass-shaped lamps, vase shapes
Design Tips: Soft camel skin lamps are perfect for ambient lighting in corners, adding warmth without overwhelming. Star-shaped lamps or round lamps can be great standalone pieces on a console or shelf.
Kilims and Rugs: Weaving Culture into Floors
Handwoven textiles like kilims bring texture, colour, and history underfoot. They ground spaces and define zones.
Top Picks: cotton rugs/daris, traditional kilims
Design Tips: Use smaller rugs in entryways or hallways to add interest without covering large floor areas. Choose kilims with colours that echo other décor elements, like cushions or wall hangings, for harmony.
Wood and Metal Craft: Earthy and Elegant Accents
Objects in wood and metal offer both texture and craftsmanship. They suit homes that balance rustic charm with elegant detailing.
Wood Craft Top Picks: jewellery boxes, coffee tables, wooden masala boxes, tea sets/coasters
Metal Craft Top Picks: animal and bird figures, jugs, trays
Design Tips: Place wooden trays or tea sets in kitchens or on dining tables to introduce warmth. Use metal animal figures or trays on shelves or mantels to create subtle points of interest.
Home Décor and Gift Items: Everyday Ethnic Touches
Small touches often make the biggest impact. Accessories and gifts bring cultural depth into daily life.
Top Picks: home décor: cushion covers, fridge magnets, wall hangings, bed sheets; gift items: purses & bags, notebooks, bracelets, flags, wallets, souvenirs
Design Tips: Mix cushion covers with modern furniture, textiles with Pakistani craftsmanship can soften minimal interiors. Use wall hangings as backdrops to gallery walls or family photo collections.
