5 Interior Design Trend Predictions For 2016

Each year, designers and architects go online to voice their opinion of what they believe will be the biggest trends in interior design. While some trends loose their appeal quickly, others stand the test of time; this should be considered before investing tons of money implementing these trends into your home.

Here at HotPads, we’ve analyzed the data from numerous design resources and have narrowed down 2016’s design trends to the ones we predict will stay around for a while. Here are our top five choices:

1 Two-Tone Kitchen Cabinets

Two-tone kitchens have slowly gained popularity over the past few years, but this year two-tone kitchens are exploding. The general consensus when applying this design trend is to install the darker cabinet color on the bottom to anchor the room and the lighter cabinet color is used on the uppers to make the room feel larger.

2 Outdoor Fabric Comes Indoors

Outdoor fabrics are amazingly durable! Homes with animals and kids need high-traffic fabrics that are easy to clean. The selection of outdoor fabrics – in color and style – have grown over the years and the prices are usually lower than traditional designer fabrics, making this one of the best trends of 2016.

3 Statement Vanity Mirrors

It finally happened, homeowners across the country have banded together to boycott the hideous unframed mirrors that contractors glue to the wall above bathroom vanities. Ornately framed mirrors are showing up everywhere. These free-hanging fixtures will change the look of any bathroom and for the better. Consider two mirrors hung side by side or one large horizontal mirror spanning both sinks in a master bath.

4 Sunrooms and Garden Rooms

As construction prices continue to rise across the country, thrifty homeowners are looking for inexpensive ways to add living space to their homes. A deck turned sunroom or garden shed turned garden room may be the answer. The price to finish out one of these rooms is a fraction of adding an addition onto your home. Due to the lack of central heat, these rooms are called three-season rooms in cooler climates, but can be used year round in warmer clients.

5 White Kitchens With Pops Of Color

White kitchens have trended for several years now and they’re sure to stick around for a few more. While the endless sea of white can be stark, color has found its way into these spaces making these rooms come alive. According to designers, the bolder the color accents the more time you’ll spend in these rooms. Try a colorful backsplash to really make the room pop!
