York narrowed in on six defining trends:“Because Life Can be Noisy,”a collection of QuietWall Acoustical Wallcoverings to soundproof shared spaces in style;“A Clean Bill of Health,”a collection of bleach-scrubbable, high-performance wallpapers in line with CDC guidelines;“Education Station,”a collection of whimsical and clever designs for ad hoc classrooms;“Environmental Stewardship,”a collection of sustainable, organic-inspired coverings that bring natural elements in;“In Transition,”a collection of peel-and-stick offerings for quick space changes; and“Working From Home,”a collection of professional finishes for the improvised office.

“The year 2020 is all about navigating an ever-changing world while sheltering in place, redefining space with a new set of priorities,” York writes of the curated designs. “Home has become a multifunctional dwelling, where work, play, child-rearing, education, entertainment, physical fitness, leisure, and quietude must co-exist as harmoniously as possible.” As the brand notes, “We no longer simply come home”—”we live here.”
