2020 is well on its way, with spring around the corner. Many homeowners will be looking to make some updates to their homes. Depending on budget, needs and wants, renovations can be small, like a new paint job, or larger, like adding a room to the home. Whatever the size of the renovation, there are some new trends that will be in the limelight for home design.

9 Top Trends in Home Renovations for 2020 and Beyond
- Uniqueness. People will be designing their homes more to their individual tastes and personalities, not what’s “trendy”. Furnishings, paint colors and materials will be more personalized to what makes the homeowners feel good. This trend also extends to handmade goods.
- Quality and Sustainability. People will be buying fewer, but higher-end items that may cost more initially but last longer. There is more concern about the environment, so buying cheap and throwing it in the dump after a few years is no longer popular.
- Portable Fixtures. Having lighting and other electrical fixtures that aren’t hardwired into the ceiling or wall allows for more flexibility. It makes it possible to have beautiful decor without being limited by the existing layout of the space.
- Countryside Look. This design trend is replacing the old “farmhouse” style. It’s a fresher, more European look that mixes patterns and styles. It combines new with antique, adding botanicals and primary tones.
- More Colors and Patterns. Neutral colors will be replaced by shades of pinks, peach, and golden yellows. Layered patterns, especially in rugs and upholstered furniture are a growing trend.
- Contrasting Trim. Painting trim and molding in bold colors that contrast with the walls makes the room pop. Even wallpapered ceilings are becoming a thing.
- Natural Materials. Getting back to the basics, materials will include marble in bathrooms and kitchens, as well as accent pieces. Linen is also trending, but not in the boho style of yore. Pieces covered in linen will have a more finished look and come in jewel-tone colors.
- 2-Tone Kitchens. The pure white kitchen will be phased out. Contrasting colors and patterns will become the new look, encompassing not only walls, but appliances, cabinets, and countertops.
- Interesting Rugs. Rugs made from different types of materials that come in a variety of shapes and patterns will be very popular. Think of them as art on the floor!
