Tarek & Christina Seminars teach that modern styles sell fast and maximize your return on investment. Incorporate the latest and greatest looks into your home renovation with inspiration from the top design trends for 2019.

Classic Kitchen

Kitchens are going back to the basics: closed cabinetry, raw materials — wood, stone, wire mesh, and jute — and neutral colors. Keep the colors bright and simple. For cabinets, choose colors rather than dated wood, and choose simplicity over elegance.

Natural Materials

Incorporate natural materials or textures. Stone, copper, concrete, wood, and granite bring nature indoors and create an organic feel to the home. Wood furniture, marble tiling, and increased natural lighting can all create this effect.

Go Green

More and more consumers are concerned about protecting the environment and are putting their money behind their convictions. Upcycling decor and using sustainable materials is one way to embrace this trend in home design — as is incorporating the color green. It has a calming effect and an air of refinement, and serves as a great backdrop to natural materials and an environmentally friendly lifestyle.

Floral Patterns

Florals have been trendy for years. In 2019, expect to see them continue to flourish in exaggerated and contrasting colors on wallpaper, textiles, and decor.

Memphis Design

Memphis design had its heyday in the 1980s, and it is slowly overtaking mid-century modern as a home design style of choice. Move away from straight lines and modular shapes in furniture to curved sofas and rounded-back chairs. Focus on curves and primary colors.

Bold Colors

The past few years have emphasized minimalist beige and neutral color palettes. But the new year brings an interest in bolder colors, such as jewel tones and bronze and gold plating. Bring boldness into the rooms of your home: interior design in 2019 is moving more toward bold colors, textures, and patterns. Richer hues will personalize your home and give it a modern edge.

Artisanal Pieces

Furniture and decor are moving away from the mass-produced to the boutique. Designers are creating limited runs and experimenting with new designs and materials. Look for one-of-a-kind statement pieces, complete with unique style and handmade variability and imperfections, to add to your home.

Gilded Fixtures

For bathroom and other metal fixtures, back away from stainless steel and nickel. This year, it’s all about warm metal accents, including copper, brass, and gold. These metals are a cheerful and surprising element that can update and add color to bathrooms and kitchens.

Geometric Patterns

Bolder, brighter geometric patterns are in for 2019 and will make a statement in any room. Consider geometric tiles in a modern and luxurious shower, or for a kitchen backsplash. The simplest way to bring bold geometric patterns to your home is by placing a few simple throw pillows on your chairs and couches.

Add any of these trends to your home renovation, and you’re well on your way to creating a trendy home that’s sure to impress. Learn more ways to improve your home and impress potential buyers by finding even more home design tips on the Real Estate Elevated blog.
