Top Home Trends Style + Interior
Soothing Neutral Colors
Restful beige-based neutrals will gain more ground on today’s popular gray tones. Beige’s strong connection to nature will help to impart a welcome calm inside home spaces.
Prominent Wood Elements
Demand for wood-based decors will increase with both structural and moveable pieces; expect to see cheery lighter shades become more sought after in interior styles.

Although they still love all white, homeowners are craving more color. Watch for loud gem tones to pique interest more than moodier darks due to their happy and brighter ambiance.
Wallpapers that Wow
Removable wallpapers will attract new customers, ones that love pattern and color but are less likely to commit to the messy, pasted on wallpapers of old. It’s love at first sight!
Sophisticated Tile
Tile is having an interior design moment! More homeowners will fall in love with concrete/porcelain tiles’ colors and patterns, using them on floors, backsplashes and even whole walls.
More DIY Flooring Options
As the breadth of DIY flooring options expand, more homeowners will take advantage of these new and innovative materials for quick weekend improvements.
Hygienic Surfaces, Fixtures & Appliances

The New Home Office
Homeowners working at home will be looking for ways to kitout workspaces with space efficient desks, task lamps, storage, desk chairs, and technology products.
Shared Spaces for Kids
More families are opting to have their kids share a bedroom to free up a closed door room for a dedicated kids’ play area. This trend will boost interest in bunkbeds and storage solutions.
Defined Mudrooms and Entries
Watch for an increased focus on creating designated areas near the front entry which family and guests can use as a “drop zone” to leave public-facing gear at the door.
Pets Influence New Home Purchases
Pet owners’ desire to give their pets the best life is impacting their big ticket purchase decisions, like a new home with a big yard or a larger vehicle that provides room to grow.
