The start of every year always brings us dozens of new trends for your home. It's time consuming and often, mind numbing sifting through all the publications and social media posts. So, I took the time to do it for you. I searched the internet to research and find you the 5 most common and popular trends for 2019. Continue reading to inspire the inner deisgner in you and and complete your dream projects.
1. BLACK IS BACK
From appliances, fixtures and accent strips to all black kitchen cabinets and islands. Black matte finishes are "in" for 2019. Couple black cabinets with natural wood textures, i.e...floors, shelving, accent walls.
2. TILE UP & OPEN UP
Tile backsplashes are still as popular as ever. But with more people trending to open shelving and open cabinets in their kitchens, tile backsplashes are becoming tile walls. Take the tile from the counter top to the ceiling. This will allow you to highlight the wall as it shows through the open cabinets and shelving.
3. WARMER & SOFTER COLORS
While grays ruled in 2018, people are trending to warmer and softer colors like Sherwin WIlliams "Color fo the Year" for 2019- Cavern Clay. Bold colored accent walls are still a great way to show off your personality, but stick to the warmer, softer tones throughout the home.
4. WOOD IN THE BATH
Natural and Nature are your key words for 2019 and that includes your bathroom where natural wood vanities rule. From reclaimed wood, bamboo, teak and rustic log finishes to name a few, natural wood vanities will rule for 2019.
5. LET NATURE IN
As I said, natural and nature are your key words when it comes to remodeling in 2019. Include elements of nature in your rooms, wood, greenery, functional accessories, concrete and stone. Also, merge rooms with the outside to help bring in the natural elements. Large doors that open from the kitchen or living area that make the transition from indoors to outdoors seemless will make your home stand out in 2019.
While there are many, many more styles trending for your home in 2019, these were some of the most common and popular and all came up in multiple publications and searches. Nature and natural are definitely key words this year. So if you do anything, try to incorprate more of a natural feel to your home and incorporate elements of nature throughout.
