2020 Design Trends to Watch

January 24, 2020 by Excelsior Homes

Design Trends

Design trends are constantly changing. We see these trends impact what people are looking for in homes and also what modular and manufactured home builders add to designs. At the beginning of each year we like to take a look at the latest trends and compile a list of some of the things we’re seeing (and sometimes take a peek at the past).

Abel & Kara West Home Kitchen2020 Design Trends

  • Smaller Home Footprints – Smaller homes are becoming more attractive to people  with lower heating/cooling costs, construction, care and maintenance lessened. 
  • Two-Tone Kitchens – We’ve gone from lots of wood to all white to multi-color toned kitchen designs. 
  • Patterns – Layered patterns and textile will continue to emerge on walls, runs, accessories.
  • Bold contrasts – Dark and light colors, black and white, molding and trim variations, textures and more. 
  • Natural, Handmade and Sustainable – This has been a growing trend and it will continue as people add warmth to their design and remain eco-conscious.
  • Unique Rugs – Add texture, color and uniqueness to any room with trendy accent rugs.
  • Color of the Year – Pantone’s 2020 color of the year is classic blue. 

“Instilling calm, confidence, and connection, this enduring blue hue (classic blue) highlights our desire for a dependable and stable foundation on which to build as we cross the threshold into a new era.” – Pantone Color Institute

Lifestyle 207 kitchen

With each new year updated design trends show up. What new 2019 home design trends are you seeing? We see new styles show up in home designs from manufacturers and different requests from customers.

Home Design Trends

Lifestyle 207 kitchen, 2019 home design trends

Warm white wall color

  • Color – The 2019 Pantone color of the year is Living Coral. We’re seeing this used as an acccent color. Think about including with decor, accent pillows, towels, etc. 
  • Wall Color – There are couple of trends we’re noticing with wall color. The first is white wall paint. Soft, warm whites instead of colder whites are popular. The white color is commonly used in many rooms throughout the home with an accent room or two that feature a bold color, jewel tone colors (bold, deep blues and greens) are popular for these accent rooms. Painted accent walls are not as popular as accent rooms.
  • Bringing Nature Indoors – Prominent windows help provide a view to the outdoors. Outdoor/nature connection can also be acomplished by adding design features and decorations such as; wood floors, stone backsplashes, copper and plants. You’ll also see more unique wood features.

Stone, wood and backsplash feature

  • Cabinets – You’ll find cabinets in colors other than natural wood tones and white. You might see blue, grey, black and more. 
  • Patterns – Floral and geometric patterns are showing up and creating a bold statement. You could see them covering walls or used as accent pieces as simple as a pillow or sitting chair.

That’s a few of the popular trends we’re seeing. There are many others and of course everyone has their own style! Decorate with what you like and if you’re looking for a new home and have a specific style or feature in mind make sure you ask.

2018 Popular Home and Design Trends

February 14, 2018 by Excelsior Homes

Metallic Design Trends

With each new year comes new trends. Design trends are popular and ever-changing. If you watch HGTV on a regular basis you may have heard about some of their 2018 projected trends. Or maybe your thinking about selling your home and buying something new, so you want to stay updated on the hottest designs. Let’s talk about 2018 design trends!

Design Trends

While every designer speculates what the most popular trends will be for the year, there are a few styles or options that we keep seeing that may have some staying power.

Here are a few things you’ll probably see this year:

  • Rich Color Palettes – Vibrant colors will appear as accents, furniture and wall colors, and in every room of the home. Watch for deep reds, bold yellows and saturated greens.
  • Purple – Speaking of color, did you know the Pantone Color of the Year is Ultra Violet? Watch for accent products made in purple, along with wall colors supporting this trend.
  • Colorful Kitchens – Instead of all white kitchens or strictly wood tones you’ll start seeing a mix of color tones, inserting different colors and adding variety to the mix.
  • Design Trends KitchenMetallic Accents – From fixtures to wall accents watch for bronze, copper and other metallic accents throughout homes and design.
  • Smooth Curves & Relaxed Lines – We’ll start seeing more curves and rounded edges making their way into designs and furniture as the more ridgid lines fade away.
  • Bold Patterns – We started seeing more of this in 2017, but bold patterns including floral will continue to grow in popularity. 

While we can’t guarantee that you’ll see these trends, they are a few things you can watch for in the coming months.
