Fireplaces & Tech-Less Living Rooms
Whether you opt for a real wood burning fireplace, or simply want the look and feel of one without the hassle a wood burning unit can cause, fireplaces are making a comeback in the home design world. Instead of a large television screen taking up space as the focal point of the living area, fireplaces can serve as the prime focus of the room. Alongside the trend of a tech-less space for families to focus more on connecting with each other away from devices, the fireplace adds a cozy, comfy and intimate feel to the living area.

Mixed Material Kitchens & Mismatched Cabinets
Out with the old and in with the new? Not quite… Houzz Home Design Trends suggests the advent of mismatched or two-tone cabinetry. What may seem counterintuitive, actually turns out to be quite stunning. For instance, to keep a softer, timeless vibes, upper cabinets can remain a lighter neutral tone, while lower cabinets can be swapped out for bolder, darker, deeper wood tones. Combining two different cabinetry styles will actually add a renewed textured and dimensional feel to the kitchen. Similarly, another fun way to change up your kitchen style is to pair unordinary combinations of countertops with backsplashes. Toy with the idea of a brick backsplash with concrete countertops or subway tiling with shiny white countertops and a wood ceiling… Embrace your eclectic side this year!

Statement Mirrors & Bathroom Living
Take your bathroom back this year, by making it a space you actually want to be in. Eliminate the clutter… Add natural fragrance with some fresh flowers on a cute retro styled table, alongside a comfy plush chair, for added elegance and style. It also may be time to cut the ties with your medicine cabinet and introduce something more exciting to look at. Swap in a classic vanity-esque vibe, with a modern backlit marvel, or hang in some uniquely shaped mirrors or large thick wood frames, for a more rustic look.
