Kitchen design ideas
From cabinets to counters, simplicity is what we are seeing as the leading trend in the kitchen. Floor-to-ceiling cabinets give a unified look, in addition to more storage space. Flat-front and shaker-style cabinet doors provide a clean look. Center stage, oversized islands with waterfall counters are increasingly popular. Oversized island countertops provide room to prep, a place to pay bills or do homework, and simplify entertaining. Quartz, which is non-porous and resistant to stains, bacteria, and scratches, is an excellent choice for any kitchen since it’s both durable and beautiful. It comes in a broad variety of colors and patterns to suit your personal style. Finally, look for stylish and functional faucet options like pullout high arc faucets and decorative pendant light fixtures to complete your chic, modern kitchen.
Bathroom trends
What's new in bathroom design? Biophilic Design, which seeks to improve health and wellness by incorporating elements from the natural world into our interior spaces. Selecting the right materials in your bathroom can help yield a spa-like retreat. Our Design Studios offer a variety of tile options to help you achieve that goal. Pair warm earthy tones, such as ivory or greige, with organic shapes like an oval-shaped freestanding tub to produce a tranquil design. Incorporating colored tiles, such as a range of blues, can add to the calming feel of the space. Consider clean-lined large-scale tiles, clear glass frameless shower panels, and streamlined faucets and fittings to complete this design scheme.
In the great room and beyond
One of the biggest decisions for your new home will be your flooring. Since flooring often extends from a great room into other spaces like the kitchen and hallways, your choice will have the greatest impact. As with other design elements, soothing tones that nod to nature are trending in flooring. Blonde wood finishes are replacing the mahogany and chestnut colors we have seen in the past. The use of neutral, lighter colors makes rooms feel bigger and brighter, creates a foundation for the rest of your décor, and make it easier to mix and layer your spaces. Luxury vinyl planks are also on trend. Their durability and water resistance make them a great choice in kitchens and high traffic areas. Tri Pointe’s Room Visualizer gives you 360º view to help you decide.
Best paint colors for all rooms
For paint, experts in the field forecast a mix of colors that offer balance and rhythm in your spaces. Again, we are seeing colors that mimic those from the outdoors, such as warm, neutral tones. Another design trend is employing paint layers to bring local character (picture deeper tones in various colorways). What’s really new and exciting is the idea of adding more playful colors. If you have a neutral shell for floors and walls, you can bring in color with décor elements. Tri Pointe’s dedicated team of experts know all the latest trends and will consider your needs and style to get you the atmosphere you desire for your new home.
