The home remodeling and decoration website Houzz released its list of the 10 design trends it expects to see in 2018. The list was assembled from feedback offered by its network of users and home professionals. Vibrant colors and intricate wall patterns appear frequently throughout the list.
If you’re thinking about remodeling your home next year, now might be a good time to start planning. Hardware stores will be offering discounts on any tools or building supplies you can imagine… The trends were chosen based on input from Houzz users and home professionals.
These are the trends that made the list.
More color in kitchens
Turning up the volume on the amount of color in your kitchen can give it a cooler, more personal touch while also making cooking-related stains and damage less apparent. Paying attention to detail using the right color palette throughout the home can make your furniture and decorative items pop.
No more white or stainless steel sinks…
You will see a lot more sinks being made of materials such as stone, copper, concrete, and even granite. These will be at the top of trends in 2018
Vintage lighting
Vintage lighting fixtures, like aged copper pendant lights, are making a major comeback.
Trough or bucket sinks
Trough sinks tend to be wider and deeper than the most common ones today, making them a good choice for bathrooms shared between children or laundry rooms.
Concrete accents
While concrete is a common building material, it may become more prominent in decorative contexts.
Wallpaper-like backsplash
Intricate tile designs can add a compelling compositional element to a wall while being more damage-resistant than wallpaper.
Casual and calm modern bedrooms
Minimalist designs and soothing colors will make bedrooms more relaxing and restful spaces.
