With so many fresh and innovative ideas shaping the latest 2024 interior remodeling trends, the possibilities for a look that’s uniquely yours are nearly endless. If you’re ready to transform your home into a stylish and comfortable sanctuary, join us as we explore the hottest trends that are redefining remodeling and interior design.
The Shift from Neutral Tones to Colors and Patterns
With their agreeable and complementary palette, neutral colors have long been a basic design staple. However, in 2024, the use of brighter colors is rising to the forefront. Vivid hues woven throughout your design, whether through wall color, cabinetry, tile, accessories, or furniture add eye catching interest, personalizing your spaces. From rich crimson reds and deep ocean blues to dark forest greens and saffron inspired yellows, bold, saturated tones are in. Whether on their own or blended with supportive neutrals or other bright tones, they make a striking statement. Conventional rules are laid aside as this intriguing mixing and matching of colors offers a myriad of possibilities to express your personal style.
Patterns are stepping up their game too, blending with everything from other patterns to bright and neutral color choices. From herringbones and stripes to geometric and floral prints, patterns can help personalize your look, adding dimension and style. Integrating texture, whether through fluted or decorative cabinetry, furniture, fabrics, or other accessories adds an additional layer of character and interest. The careful blending of these elements offers a surprisingly fresh and cohesive look, creating comfortable and attractive spaces.
Curved Archways and Entries
Often thought of as a traditional design feature, curved archways and entries are making a grand comeback. These classic architectural elements add elegant interest, framing important areas with their soft, fluid design. Timeless and versatile, archways add rich character and a quiet sense of grandeur for design styles of every kind. Whether your home design is traditional, mid-century, eclectic, contemporary or something else entirely, archways pair well with the latest trending elements. Combined with bold colors, patterns, textured accessories, and more, they enhance your overall design scheme.
Statement Ceilings and Floors
Ceilings, though often largely unnoticed, have great potential to make a unique statement. Neutral colored ceilings are still relevant, of course, being the classic, complementary choice for a room’s design scheme. Bright, striking colors, however, are finding their way into these overhead spaces, creating a personality-laden focal point. Trends are showing bold colors paired with tonal or contrasting crown moulding, ornamental appliques, medallions, and onlays, and chandeliers and other decorative light fixtures. Beams and paneling, either faux or real wood, ceiling tiles, coffered ceilings, and even wallpaper are other popular choices that provide unexpected dimension and style.
A traditional flooring design in days past, the herringbone pattern is in high demand once again. Its attractive, angular pattern creates an inviting backdrop for most furnishings and decor. Natural wood and tile are durable favorites for this timeless pattern, creating a stunning, visually pleasing effect that enlarges the look of your spaces.
Other flooring materials currently trending include large format porcelain, ceramic, or marble tiles. Popular for the kitchen and bath, they provide a chic, luxurious look that makes the smaller spaces, like a powder room, seem bigger. In addition, many homeowners are selecting eco- friendly cork flooring, especially for high traffic areas such as the foyer, hallway, and living or family rooms. Available in a variety of colors, this sustainable natural material offers attractive, long-term durability for the busy household.
Fluted Cabinetry and Other Details
As design trends lean away from the sharp, minimalist look, fluted cabinets, with their shallow vertically grooved surfaces, are catching homeowners’ attention. Whether choosing fluted kitchen cabinets or standard cabinets with fluted trim, homeowners appreciate their subtle character and texture. This trend is carried throughout the home as well, in furnishings, bathroom vanities, and built-in cabinetry. Lending a decorative flair without going over the top, fluted cabinets provide a soft, simple look that complements their overall design scheme.
Another interesting trend emerging for 2024 is the use of blended backsplashes in the kitchen. Simply put, it’s essentially a mix of traditional and modern elements. This could, for example, include a slab of stone or quartz behind the cooktop/range, and ceramic tile for the remainder of the backsplash. Many homeowners are choosing a timeless design throughout their home, gravitating toward similar combinations. They’re blending natural materials like tile, brick, and wood with other sustainable materials and modern amenities to achieve a comfortably classic and functional space.
Beverage Stations and Appliance Garages
One of the newer must-have kitchen features is the beverage station. This specially designed nook offers quick, convenient access to your favorite hot or cold drinks. With its own mini fridge or located near the refrigerator, it houses the items needed to make coffee, tea, hot chocolate, smoothies, and more. Some homeowners are even opting for a small beverage station in the primary bedroom as well, enjoying a hotel-like experience for their early morning coffee.
The appliance garage, a standard kitchen cabinetry option, is catching on with more fervor as small appliances become more popular. In addition to hosting a food processor and pressure cooker, this handy storage system ensures that the crock pot, air fryer, toaster, waffle maker, and blender are conveniently located as well. The appliance garage helps to reduce countertop clutter, giving the kitchen a neat and airy feel.
Mud-Laundry Combo Rooms
Combining the mud and laundry rooms just makes sense, so it’s no surprise that this is a trend for the coming year. Located near a high traffic entryway such as the garage or back door, this room keeps muddy boots, dirty laundry, sports equipment and outdoor gear, pet toys, and similar items contained in one place. This practical combination helps organize everyone’s belongings, reducing mess and clutter throughout your home.
Add built-in cabinets and/or shelving, cubbies, coat hooks, a bench, or other storage systems to help keep items organized and close at hand. In a two story home, if possible, add a laundry chute upstairs to direct clothing, towels, and linens downstairs into the laundry area.
Kitchens Opening to the Backyard
Bringing the outside in lends a cheerful vibe, warming and brightening most any room. Designing a kitchen “with a view” allows homeowners to enjoy the scenery while providing easy access to their outdoor spaces. Strategically placed large windows, sliding or French doors, and glass walls bring the sunshine in while facilitating daily meals, entertaining, and other activities. Natural light has many benefits, so this trend is one that’s not only attractive, it’s good for your health.
Pulling it All Together
When planning a remodel, your primary goal should be to create an attractive, comfortable, and functional space that you’ll enjoy now and in the future. Whether you opt to follow all the latest trends, or adopt one or two, know that you can customize each detail to suit your needs and tastes. We recommend using a qualified designer to help you select the combination that best suits your household.
