The Three Design Trends of 2023 Built to Last
When it comes to home renovations and remodels, homeowners like you look to refresh their design aesthetic. At Fine Point Homes Construction, we work hard to recommend trends that will work within your actual lifestyle, as well as ensure they won’t be short lived. Making smart decisions about the trends you remodel around allow your home to stay functional for years to come and be a source of great enjoyment.
Here are three trends we believe not only elevate your home but will stick around for a long time.
1. The Home Office
As homes have incorporated more and more open concepts over the years, dedicated spaces in general (and walls) slowly fell out of popularity. Of course, COVID changed all of that, bringing about a revival of the remote workspace. Today, many of us work at home at least part time.
With more people working from home than ever before, 2023 homes are seeing the creation of functional, comfortable spaces that can allow for professionalism. In some cases, this means the return of home offices. In others, it means crafting a dedicated area of the open concept area that will allow for both work and play.
Homeowners need zoom friendly wall designs and ways to keep noise down for remote meetings. Ergonomic furniture is growing in popularity as desks, couches and chairs need to be useable for full work days yet double as a space to relax in.
Considering many businesses have seen the light on remote work, we see this trend lasting for the long haul.
2. Interlacing the indoors and outdoors
After being restricted to our homes for far too long, many owners found the value in an outdoor space that could provide a literal and metaphorical breath of fresh air.
Today, we craft indoor spaces that allow for more sunlight and the opportunity to blend into the outdoors. With large windows and sliding glass doors, the transition from inside to outside can be completely seamless.
Interestingly, this trend also applies to the outdoors. Our team at Fine Point Homes is seeing the rise in clients bringing inside comforts outside. From outdoor kitchens to renovated patios complete with entertainment systems and more comfortable outdoor furniture, these spaces are being updated at a significantly higher rate.
Look for 2023 to be the year we blur the lines between indoor and outdoor comfort.
3. Designing with light fixtures
Using light fixtures to accentuate your aesthetic is not a new trend. However, implementing a layered lighting approach is a relatively new twist.
Referencing the trend of more people working at home, there’s a greater need for disparity in lighting throughout the day. Fortunately, improved technology, ranging from greater light bulb options to energy saving dimmers make this a reality. While adding lamps certainly are a part of the layering strategy, including built-in lighting options like cabinet lights are instrumental to developing different moods and brightness levels. Combining these features with lamps and statement chandeliers will help your remodeled home create any mood while extending your design style.
Of course, we highly recommend consulting a licensed electrician when developing the plan for your home’s lighting.
We find and follow trends that will improve your home and your life. While a quick Google search would show 20 other “home design trends for 2023,” these three stand out to our experienced team as ones that will stand the test of time.
Fine Point Homes believes in cutting through the confusion around your perfect home - whether that’s buying new or upgrading your existing house. We simplify the process and stay in touch during every aspect so that you always know what comes next.
