As home builders and remodelers, staying informed about technology and trends in our industry is vital to what we do. Our expertise and guidance are part of what we provide for our clients. When they have questions, it’s our job to answer with as much helpful context and information as possible.
While we move further into 2022, our team has started to see a few styles emerge. Scroll below for the list of what trends we’re forecasting for the coming year.
Modern Farmhouse Style is Declining
Our clients are moving strongly toward modern, cape/coastal, or traditional styles in their homes. Once everywhere, modern farmhouse style is now on the decline.
Mixed Metallics Remain Popular
Mixed metals, such as brass lighting with black door hardware and satin nickel faucets, remain on this rise. We are also seeing people gravitate away from stainless steel in their homes.
French Appliances are Replacing Stainless Steel
More and more of our clients are drifting away from Wolf or Thermador ranges and gravitating toward the French-styled Lacanche or La Cornue (again, in any color but stainless steel).
Customized Leisure Spaces are Growing
Sport courts have gone from optional to nearly required for many of our clients. In-home saunas are also gaining popularity along with golf simulators.
Home Offices and Study Spaces are Here to Stay
Home offices, study spaces, and chill areas are common additions to many new homes we build these days. We’re seeing these areas become even more individual and dedicated to their specific purposes.
The Pandemic is Still Shaping Homeownership
Needless to say, most trends still reflect homeowners’ adapting to the ongoing pandemic. People are trying to maximize their time in the place where they’re spending the bulk of their lives.
