Wondering what’s currently happening with home trends in the community this season? Well, for starters, Country Living suggests that white paints are out – and color is in! This along with other aesthetic trends, such as utilizing marble or the slightly more adventurous use of green paints to brighten a room, are making up the latest housing trends in Hudson and the surrounding areas.
Designer Furniture
Textured rugs and decorating ideas such as woven items, displayed around your home or even hung on the walls will add that touch of flair to any room. Meanwhile, in the bedroom, you can spice things up with colorful comforters, pillow cases and handmade quilts!
In Hudson specifically, we can examine a showcase of styles on display as seen here on Pinterest, where people from the local region have posted photos of their very own interior design styles. Most of the photos show a good use of color, mixed fabrics, and furnishings to suit many different tastes.
Satin Brass
Satin brass for elegant finishes on handrails and kitchen elements such as taps brings a classic, eclectic feel to your home. In addition to this, vanities made from old dresser drawers adapted with deep basin sinks and bathroom accessories create a homely but classy feel to an otherwise untapped area of the house: the bathroom.
A somewhat new idea in local interior decorating has come from having well-designed laundry rooms; spaces for not only washers and dryers but also clothing, towels, and shoes using smart storage solutions.
Grand Entrance
Complimenting the stone and ornate look is the return of grand entrances! Doors renewed with wood stain paints and surrounded by pottery, plants and lanterns add accents to the entrance of any home creating a warm, inviting atmosphere for guests. The theme of grand entrances continue as entry ways inside your home seem to create an impression, and therefore, home renovators are splurging on the design to induce the feeling of a grand entrance both inside and out!
Exterior Design
For the exterior, if you’re renovating or building a home, ornate detailing featuring an arts and crafts theme is in right now. Another very popular option is natural stone brick! Multiple textures and colors are also a noticeable trend for home exteriors. Paints showing bright Fall color palettes accented with white trim (or 3 color schemes using dark light and neutral colors) add character and charm to a home.
For those that appreciate the more earthy or natural tones of wood, stain finishes continue to be prevalent. Metal roofing replaces traditional roof tiles, as materials are now becoming more resistant to weather conditions, offering 3x more resistance compared to asphalt shingles/clay or slate tiles.
Fiberglass Windows
Fiberglass windows replace standard glass windows as they are more resistant to extreme weather and warping effects through cold or heat. These types of exterior features are not only aesthetically more pleasing in 2017 but also offer less maintenance over long periods of time for homeowners.
Patterns
Favored patterns of design are equally varied from fluid organics to dynamic geometrics with an overriding emphasis on simplicity, order, repetition and rhythm. Linear patterns with clean lines and sharp edges are dominant, including large-scale designs. Structure is exposed and celebrated. “Less is more” and “form follows function” are back in style.
We hope this has given you some creative inspiration when it comes to exterior or interior updates to your home!
