Trendy Home Ideas for 2020

Mix it Up a Little

Decorating fads come and go. That's why they're called 'fads', right? If you find yourself stuck in a mid-century modern or a shabby chic rut, why not try the latest technique of blending two or three styles together? Keeping the larger things like walls and select furniture pieces in neutral shades and adding color with wall decor, pillows and other accessories also can help you keep redecorating costs in check.

Can You See the Light?

One particularly interesting trend in kitchen renovations is the 'window wall'. Homeowners opting for a complete kitchen renovation are taking out the customary small kitchen sink window along with some of the upper cabinets and are filling that space with several larger windows that span the width of the kitchen wall. This allows for lots of natural light to filter in, helping you save on that electric bill while making you feel like you're dining outdoors. To counter the loss of cabinet space, homeowners are adding deeper drawers and base cabinets.

Quartz is Still King

When it comes to kitchen countertop material, quartz still reigns supreme. An engineered stone, quartz offers homeowners several benefits. First, it is less porous than natural stone material like granite and marble, making it far easier to keep clean. Remember, a clean countertop is a healthy countertop! Second, quartz is resistant to chipping and cracking. Third, quartz offers a wide range of colors and patterns, making it very design friendly.

In With the New and Out With the Old

When new trends in home design and renovation take hold, something else usually falls out of favor. Once very popular trends like cherry cabinets, gray walls and those inspirational word signs appear to be on their way out.

Whether it's an addition or major renovation, or just a simple change in colors and decorative accessories, updating the look of your home can give it new life and add to its value.
