TRENDS FOR YEAR 2022Kitchen Remodel
The goal of having more space is often the number one reason why home owners choose to remodel. A modern Kitchen is the number one reason that homeowners want to remodel. In addition, the cost to remodel will most likely increase the value of the home.
The key to an effectively remodeled kitchen is the integration of design with modern trends, shapes and technology. The materials available today meet everyone’s wants and needs. Tile, vinyl, and wood floors come in all types of sizes and shapes to satisfy the homeowner’s tastes. Cabinets and countertops come in many warm finishes in today’s trending colors. Appliances incorporate high tech and can be configured to meet the needs on most.
To upgrade a modern kitchen the homeowner needs now more than in the past a designer that can put together a plan that incorporates the needs of the homeowner with the products of today. Linda Lipani has a unique ability to complete this task with her clients. She listens to her customers, respects the budget and communicates effectively throughout the design and construction phases.
TRENDS FOR YEAR 2022Bathroom Re-design
Many home owners are opting to re-model their homes as rising home prices, higher interest rates and low inventory have made a home re-model a more practical and cost effective option than purchasing a new or newer home. The materials and technology available today are a huge change from the past and home owners want to upgrade to these new trends. We see the following:
- Increase shower size with two shower heads and body sprays. Smart showers with built in blue tooth speakers. Showers have larger tiles with smaller grout lines. Numerous new Tile Patterns and Shapes. Hexagon, Arabesque, Diamond, Moroccan fish scales or Chevron patterns in new colors and textures.
- Technology is being incorporated into many new bathroom designs: Wireless music systems, cooling and warming systems, warming drawers for linens and robes, smart showers and sinks and voice activation for lighting and temperature.
- Asymmetrical Smart Mirrors (above). Unique and geometric mirror shapes are in.
- Replace soaking tubs with free standing tubs
- Floating Bathroom Vanities – gone are lower cabinet makeup vanities.
- Smart Toilets are in. Increased Television installations
- Modern bathrooms are being transformed into personalized day spas.
- Wood accents are back and they are trendier. Gray is becoming less and less as warmer earthy tones in accents are trending. However, Grey is still successfully being used in many projects
- Quartz counter tops still compliment the modern trends in a bathroom.
