Today’s Top Remodeling Trends

By: Maraya Mullen

" Planning on renovating your home? Here are some of today’s biggest trends to help guide you in making those remodeling and home addition plans:


Luxurious and Opulent Bathrooms

Spas are known to do wonders for one’s mind, body and soul, so it’s not really surprising that more and more people are trying to bring the oespa experience” into their homes. So in the next few years, expect to see bigger bathrooms equipped with multiple or enlarged showerheads, heated tile floors, large tubs and, for the high-end bathrooms, whirlpools and waterfalls.


Warm Colors

Warmth and comfort are big days, so if you’re thinking about repainting your bedroom or living room walls, consider painting them in natural and earth colors. Those in red, green and yellow tones are particularly popular and trendy these days.


Bigger and Better Laundry Rooms

The trend in laundry rooms is to make it larger, more organized and more colorful"in short, make it better than the damp, cramp and depressing laundry room that can be found in most homes today.

Customized Features

As with cars, jewelry, clothes and most of things in life, customization is big when it comes to home renovation today. Whether it’s through personalized furniture or fixtures, more and more people are putting their personal stamps on their homes.


Bigger Kitchens

Over the years, the kitchen has increasingly become the heart and soul of a home. More than just a place to eat, the kitchen is also where the house’s occupants (and if a teenager lives there, their constant stream of friends) gather to talk, do some work and just hang out.

With the increasing importance and role of the kitchen, today’s trends dictate that the ideal kitchen should be larger and more spacious. In contrast to the oeindustrial” kitchens of the past years, the kitchen’s new look should be warm and cozy. So instead of the stainless steel tops and furniture, opt instead for counters in earth tones and appliances in rich, warm colors.



Wood Floors

The clean elegance of wood floors are enthralling homeowners everywhere and making them among today’s biggest home trends. Say goodbye to your old carpeting, say hello to bamboo and hard wood floors.


Specialized Rooms

Specialized rooms are one of today’s most trendy home additions. Many homeowners convert their grown kids’ old rooms or have a new one added to their house to have a special place where they could do their crafts, yoga and other passions.


More Spacious and Organized Garages

Better clean up that garage. According to experts, another one of today’s big home trends is spacey and organized garages. Instead of the usual cornucopia of jumbled, well, everything, things should be neatly stored in shelves or cabinets. Organizing the garage and ridding it of useless junks will do something many homes have never had before: a spacious garage that actually holds cars.



One last parting tip: unless you’re going to renovate the entire house, you really have to carefully study if the trend you chose to follow will suit the house and your needs. Why build a spacious kitchen if you never cook, right?
