Are you looking to spice up your family room? Do you need more room or do you just want to make it more comfortable and enjoyable for your family? Thinking of adding some new features like a home theater, mudroom or setting up the guest suite for an aging parent.
Each year brings new home improvement trends. In 2018, we see trends that will not only provide great-looking updates to your home but trends that will add value to your life.
Cooking Outdoors
One trend that is quickly spreading is outdoor cooking.
- Cooking is a great way to spend time with family and friends, and it is even better when cooking outdoors.
- Pizza ovens are becoming a significant part of outdoor living.
- Easy-clean, smooth-top grills are also in demand.
Out with White!
White is a lovely color but is also a boring color for some. For 2018, more color is in demand. Faucets, tubs, bathroom vanities and more are now coming in a variety of colors that make any room gorgeous. Also, appliances-freestanding and built-in are now arriving in sleek black stainless finishes.
Technology is Growing!
The kitchen is becoming more technology-operated and is a feature that customers love! We now have Internet-connected refrigerators, as well as technology that can adjust home lighting, temperature and entertainment appliances.
Cleaning is Easier than Ever
No one likes to spend all their time cleaning!
- To cut back on cleaning, many customers are gravitating to quartz countertops and installing touchless faucets.
- Other trending products are stainless-steel tubs that do not retain odors and dishwashers that also do not retain odors.
Statement Floors
Early signs of 2018 are revealing that statement floors will be this year’s popular trend. Examples of statement floors are bold colored geometric tiles and soft herringbone-style hardwoods. These styles make any room pop!
Cabinets of Light Wood
Another trend is light and medium wood cabinets. Flat fronts and clean lines add warmth and texture to kitchens and bathrooms. Light colors also make a room look bigger and brighter. Grey is still a popular trend in 2018 as well as a painted and glazed finish on cabinets.
Formal Dining is Back!
Many homeowners are now returning to dividing walls. Homeowners want their formal dining room away from the kitchen. This concept is more traditional but is a wonderful way to dine with family and friends, away from the work atmosphere of the kitchen. In residential remodeling, the old is new and new is old. Dining room additions are on the rise.
Bold Millwork Features
Rustic wood elements in a home can add history and character to a home. Bringing over-sized posts and beams into a modern setting or leaving chunks of shiplap exposed can change the atmosphere and character of a home.
