Remodeling homes is not a new trend, but nowadays, more and more homeowners are choosing to transform their living spaces and turn them into desirable spaces.
While moving to a bigger or more agreeable home might once have been the only affordable option, with so many expert renovators and experienced general contractors around now, staying in your existing home and making it how you want it, is a much easier option.
In the past, home remodeling trends were heavily influenced by television shows, but with so many more options available today and more people wanting to remodel their homes in a sustainable way, new trends are emerging. Check out the following trends set to make it big as we head into 2023:
Kitchen remodeling trends
As popular as ever, modern kitchen remodels are seeing texture play a significant role, especially on walls, floors and countertops. From faux brick and grass cloth, to natural wood, play around with textures in your kitchen and see how much dimension you can bring to what was once an ordinary, one dimensional space.
Bathroom remodeling trends
Walk in showers and standalone tubs are already trendy, and textures have been playing their part as they have in kitchens, too. Waterproof, textured wallpaper allows you to add a hotel style luxury to an ordinary bathroom, and you can experiment with colors and scenes to recreate a jungle or other such environment, for example.
Popular color trends emerging for bathrooms are blues and greens, but for the ultimate in vibrancy and uniqueness, why not splash some bold primary colors around?
Energy efficiency
Many homeowners are seeking to make their homes more energy efficient nowadays, and not just because it can lower their energy bills, but also to help reduce their home’s carbon footprint and preserve the planet for future generations. For ways to add energy efficiency to your home remodel, consider adding solar panels, energy efficient appliances, insulation and swapping to LED lights.
Exterior remodeling trends
In light of the recent pandemic, many homeowners are desperate to get their share of the great outdoors, without having to go too far from their own doorstep. If you’ve got a deck, patio or pergola, try embellishing them with plants and decorations to make them more homely and inviting.
Open space as a remodeling trend
More and more families are opting for open space living, with bigger rooms that connect to one another without doorways, and therefore, without walls. Predicted to continue well into next year, have you considered opening up your living spaces for a better connected, inclusive way of living?
Minimalism
Clean lines, neutral colors and simple furniture and décor is a trend that’s growing in momentum, and is definitely worth keeping in mind if you’re remodeling a home to make it more attractive to buyers.
A remodeled home expertly carried out can turn your once tired, cramped or uninspiring abode, into a series of spaces that are a pure pleasure to live in. For ideas on remodeling your home and to stay abreast of all the latest trends, seek guidance from a remodeling contractor in your area.
