Give your home style and function with a renovation. Whether you want to increase the value for resale or just improve the style or function for your own enjoyment, renovations deliver numerous benefits. Find inspiration to start the New Year out right and plan your next project with the top home renovations for 2018. Hot Trends for the New YearTrends are cyclical and the tried and true styles and materials are likely to come back into fashion in one capacity or another. At the same time new trends emerge as existing materials are used in new and innovative ways. Find out what trends are anticipated to be hot for the New Year. Pops of Color in the KitchenBoring white and stainless-steel kitchens are transitioning out. Add color in the kitchen to create a warm feeling and showcase your personality and taste. Give the space style by adding lower cabinets painted in a subdued blue or green while leaving the upper cabinets white. The backsplash is another area to add color and visual interest to a kitchen. Add color, warmth and old world charm to a kitchen with copper accents. Intricate BacksplashBold geometric patterns inspired by wallpaper are a hot trend for tiled backsplashes. Tile offers resistance to splashes and stains and the ability to easily clean necessary for a backsplash, while the detailed patterns create a look that is on trend. Appliances and cabinets break up the backsplash, so the pattern will still be visible, but not overwhelming. Concrete Counters and AccentsConcrete has slowly been gaining ground as a material for kitchen countertops and for good reason. Expect the same durability from concrete as other solid surface countertops along with the ability to choose the color and finish. Concrete is starting to move beyond the kitchen and in 2018 concrete will turn up as countertops in bathrooms and as an accent throughout the home. Kitchen Sinks with CharacterWhite and stainless-steel sinks are on their way out in favor of materials that add warmth and style. Sinks made from copper, granite and concrete will look on trend and elevate the overall look of a kitchen. Trough Sinks in BathroomsTrough sinks are practical and poised to make a comeback in 2018. With a deeper and wider design trough sinks are ideal in bathrooms shared by children, or even in laundry rooms. Trough sinks when installed with two faucets also make it possible to add the function of a double sink in a tight space where two separate sinks are not an option. MillworkThe ship lathe trend is going strong and expanding to include other forms of millwork. Wood accent walls and decorative mouldings will be more in demand during 2018. This trend is also likely to become more common in bedrooms. Wood work will be on trend whether left with a natural finish or painted. Vintage FixturesMake a statement with vintage, or even vintage-inspired, lighting fixtures. Metal fixtures with patina add character to a home. Consider repurposing outdoor lighting fixtures for use inside and set the tone for the look of space. Large lighting fixtures still fit in over a dining table and pendant lights will still hit the mark for 2018. Rich HuesCreate a consistent look throughout your home by adding accents in deep and bold colors. Whether used for furniture, decorative items or trim work vivid colors with rich tones will make the overall look pop. Using this color planning technique throughout an entire home will pull the entire look together. Attend a Home ShowHome shows feature the latest trends and cutting edge technologies.
