What's Trending In Home Design In 2024?
Luxury Outdoor Living — What Took Us So Long?
For some homeowners, it took a pandemic for them to appreciate their backyard. Now that we all have enjoyed the benefits of outdoor living, we aren't in any rush to head back inside. Larger, more luxurious outdoor living spaces will be on the to-do list in 2024. Gone are the small decks or patios that hold a grill and a table with an umbrella.
Instead, combinations of a covered rear porch with a screened-in porch, grilling porch, or outdoor kitchen will be what homeowners want, and buyers will come to expect. These new outdoor spaces are turning out to be so amazing, it will be hard to decide whether to stay in or "go out." Homeowners aren't just stopping there. They are adding pools, hot tubs, fire pits, and plenty of seating around all of them.
Requests For "Smart" Features In Luxury Homes Continue To Be On The Rise
Technologies such as automatic and motion-sensor lighting and smartphone-controlled technology will become more common. Smart appliances also extend to the kitchen and bathrooms. Expect to see microwaves and ovens with built-in cameras that let you monitor your food as it cooks. Self-cleaning toilets and autonomous heat-adjusting showers are other major innovations we expect to become more commonplace next year.
Multifunctional Spaces Are the New Norm
The pandemic has shifted the way we use our homes and forced us to rely on multifunctional spaces. Versatility and nifty ideas on multifunctional rooms will continue to be a huge interior design element in 2024. Make the most of every nook and cranny with clean and innovative room-dividing tactics.
We've learned the interior layout can be pretty important when the entire family ends up staying at home. For those with formal dining rooms, those spaces quickly turned into home offices or the kids' new classroom at home. A "flex room" or "flex space" became a must-have for those in the market for a new home. A flex space offers plenty of other options, such as an extra guest room, a kids' recreation room, or just a quiet place to relax.
Fully Equipped Workspaces Have Become Essential
There is a heightened interest in creating the ideal home office. From a roomy space with everything you need to a fold-away desk in a living room, home offices come in all shapes and sizes. But whatever the look, the aim is to make your space work for you. So when designing your own office, keep in mind that functionality, practicality, and aesthetics are equally important.
Proper lighting is also critical, with both task lighting and natural light from a nearby window preferred. Electrical outlets and Wi-Fi access are also important considerations when planning your workspace.
The Tendency Toward Spa-Like Bathrooms Continues & Is Gaining Momentum
Bathrooms will start seeing smart showers, mini fridges, and automatic sinks. We recently remodeled a home that allowed for the homeowner to set his shower to start automatically. This means by the time he got home from work, his shower was hot and ready!
Another more common trend is the built-in Bluetooth speaker system. Now you can easily jam out or wind down with in-shower speakers. Voice-activated features for lighting and temperature, smart mirrors that talk to you, and increased TV installments are just a few of the other fun trends we’ve seen, but the possibilities are endless. Modern day bathrooms are transforming into personalized day spas, and these technologies make the experience more relaxing and convenient than ever before.
One of the hottest 2024 bathroom trends is called cocooning. It’s the idea that the bathroom envelopes you in comfort. Everything from the design to the features is all about creating the ultimate sanctuary for body and mind.
