It’s a brand-new year, and you know what that means — new remodeling and design ideas! Keep reading to get all the details about our favorite 2024 remodeling trends!
Accessible Bathrooms
As the population ages, more homeowners want to make their spaces accessible to accommodate aging-in-place. While there are ways to make every room in your home accessible, creating a safer, aging-friendly bathroom should be a top priority. Lower countertops, slip-resistant flooring, upgraded light fixtures, and safety rails are the most essential elements of an accessible bathroom.
Earthy Color Palettes
Rich, earthy tones are trending in 2024. Shades like warm terracotta, muted greens, and sandy neutrals add warmth while creating a soothing and inviting feel. You can’t go wrong with nature-inspired colors, whether walls, cabinetry, furniture, or decor.
Multi-Functional Rooms
Another big remodeling trend for 2024 is creating multi-functional areas by incorporating flexible design elements. Imagine a home office that doubles as a guest room or a mudroom-laundry room combo. Getting creative with design increases the functionality of your home and ensures it will continue to work for you, even as your needs change.
Home Office Configurations
Remote work is still going strong in 2024, and homeowners are looking to create home office spaces that are both comfortable and practical. Having a dedicated space for work helps maintain a healthy work-life balance and boosts productivity. Incorporate technology like smart boards and projectors, ample storage solutions, and functional lighting to create an efficient, organized space.
Outdoor Luxury
Expansive windows, retractable screen doors, enclosed porches, patios and decks, and outdoor kitchens can add outdoor luxury to your home in 2024. Outdoor living spaces aren’t just for warm weather either. Incorporating fire features or heaters into the design ensures this remodeling trend can be enjoyed well into the cold season.
Multi-Generational Living
Living arrangements have transformed over the last few years, with young and older adults merging households with family members. This shift in traditional living arrangements has created a demand for homes set up to accommodate multi-generational living. So, it’s no surprise that accessory apartments and in-law suites are a big 2024 remodeling trend! These living spaces typically include their own entrance and kitchen to add privacy and independence, whether it’s a basement suite, garage apartment, or backyard structure.
Over-the-Top Pantries
If you want to ditch the clutter in 2024, a decked-out butler’s pantry is the way to do it. These walk-in storage solutions have everything you need, including a sink, outlets, appliance storage, and ample counter space. If you love to entertain, consider adding a dishwasher and extra fridge!
Matte Finishes
From matte black faucets to hardware and everything in between, this home remodeling trend is both stylish and practical. Matte finishes resist fingerprints and bring a touch of elegance to bathrooms, kitchens, and more.
Wall Sconces
There are plenty of lighting trends, but it’s safe to say wall sconces are stealing the spotlight! Available in various styles, wall sconces are an eye-catching way to add soft, appealing light and create a cozy feel inside large spaces.
