  "account": "Interior designers have shared six trends that are in and four that are out this fall season.\n\nColor drenching, which involves covering a room in one shade, is expected to continue being popular. Designers suggest starting with painting just the walls and trim before expanding to include the ceiling or more. Beverage bars are also becoming more popular, with clients wanting to create dedicated bar areas separate from the kitchen.\n\nAnimal print accents, such as tiger-print stools and leopard-print blankets, are likely to make appearances this fall. Slipcovers are making a comeback, but this time they're being designed with printed cotton and tailored details like piping or pleating.\n\nGallery walls are getting an upgrade, with interior designer Max Humphrey noting that unconventional displays featuring vintage plates, mirrors, sculptures, and vintage signs are becoming more popular. Café curtains, which cover half to two-thirds of a window, are on trend this season and are particularly functional in spaces like kitchens and bathrooms.\n\nOn the other hand, plain white ceilings are falling out of favor. Interior designer Tyka Pryde suggests treating the ceiling like a fifth wall by adding a painted pattern or wallpaper to it. Synthetic indoor-outdoor textiles are also losing appeal as people return to more natural materials like cotton. Finally, overcomplicated home automation may not be as helpful as it seems, as designers suggest striking a balance between functionality and aesthetics.",
