Real estate trends are ever-evolving, and what’s in vogue for interior and exterior design? This post will explore real estate trends inside and out in 2024.
Interior Design Trends
Synthetics Give Way to Natural Materials:
Likewise, expect to see fewer synthetics and more all-natural and recycled fabrics. For example, conscious living drives the appeal of natural materials—they’re beautiful, durable, timeless, and evoke quiet luxury1.
Warm Kitchen Makeovers:
Bid farewell to all-white kitchens! Thus, the heart of the home is now trending toward:
-
-
- Exposed beams
- Light oak cabinets are back!
- Antique bronze hardware
- Zellige tile (heat- and water-resistant handcrafted tile from Morocco) for backsplashes1.
-
Spaces with Stories
Beyond brand-new decor, homeowners appreciate items that age beautifully. Likewise, thoughtfully chosen elements connect residents to their memories:
-
-
- Marble kitchen countertops evoke European trips.
- Furthermore, the wallpaper features images representing favorite pastimes.
- But also, imperfections and patina add character, making life feel less perfect.
-
Color Everywhere
Neutrals have come a long way, but now it’s encouraged to include at least one pop of color in every room. Accordingly, monochromatic color schemes are on trend, saturating rooms with bold hues1.
Real Estate Trends Inside and Out
Exterior Home Trends
Traditional Style Appreciation
First, Classic Southern architecture remains timeless. Moreover, simplicity endures, and paint colors, landscaping, and materials should reflect the essence of home2.
Selective Painting
-
- So, move toward “less is more” on exteriors.
- Furthermore, fewer painted brick exteriors, and more attention to interesting front door colors.
- Also, consider shades with underlying tones for added interest.
Customized Outdoor Living Areas:
Elevate exterior spaces to function as part of the home.
-
-
- Outdoor kitchens
- Fireplaces
- Wood-fired pizza ovens
- Unique carpentry and masonry features
- Automated lighting and sound systems2.
-
Window Frame Color Shift:
-
- Say goodbye to black windows. Instead, embrace warm or lighter taupe window frame colors.
- Expect less contrast and softer colors for doors and windows2.
Remember, these trends offer exciting possibilities for creating unique and inviting spaces. Whether you are a homeowner or an investor, staying informed about real estate trends can guide your decisions. 🏡
