. . . and what they mean for your home!
While our expertise is building homes with timeless appeal, we always have an eye out for trends that can lend a refreshing note. This spring High Point Market in North Carolina introduced furnishings that will make their way into stores next season. We see a leaning towards products that express a strong personal point of view. Here are a few of the standout trends and what they mean for home design.
Modern and Classic Unite
Applied to your home, this means traditional shapes with a clean modern edge. Here we show the look in a library with classic details refined by a linear perspective .
Laid Back Elegance
At home this trend is expressed with a more casual mix of materials like rustic stone on the fireplace, finely detailed woodworking and a mixed media chandelier.
Artisan & Handcrafted
Components with an artisan touch are more and more popular at home. This hand hammered copper freestanding bathtub will develop a patina to accompany its sculptured shape. To see the entire home click here.
Natural Influence
Natural elements are a major influence in decor and construction. This kitchen island stands out with a scraped and distressed natural wood countertop by Grothouse from Geneva Cabinet Company, LLC in Lake Geneva. To enjoy this entire home click here.
Strong Color
Thankfully the era of the accent wall is over. We are no longer afraid to experience strong color either skillfully wrapped around the walls or artfully applied to cabinetry and furniture, as demonstrated in this lovely home. You can see the rest of the color story by clicking here.
