White is the New Black
There’s nothing like a crisp, white room. Whether it’s a kitchen, bathroom or common room, all white decor is a trend anyone (without young kids, of course!) can pull off in their home. The simplicity, elegance and tranquility of bright white are perfect for any personality. White furniture and appliances never go out of style, and if you want a pop of color, the options are limitless. This is a timeless look, so you won’t have to worry about renovating again for a long time.
Vintage/Industrial
Let’s kick it old school! From treated concrete floors to industrial light fixtures, the old school vibe is booming right now. Create a vintage/industrial look in your home with all things copper/brass, some exposed brick and weathered wood flooring. Claw-foot tubs, subway tile and even wallpaper are all making huge comebacks.
