From \u201cJapandi\u201d to \u201ckid zones,\u201d find out what\u2019s generating the latest buzz in home design.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Home designs are becoming a mishmash of many styles. On one end, there\u2019s calming, Zen-like retreats in softer color palettes, while on the other end, it\u2019s all about dark and moody colors that are bold and memorable.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Home remodeling site Houzz identified the top emerging home design trends<\/a> seeing an uptick in attention this summer based on surveys of homeowners, designers and contractors.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

    \n
  1. Organic modern styles.<\/strong> \u201cOrganic modern design elements form a balanced mix of sleek lines and crisp white or neutral-colored surfaces, contrasted with natural forms and materials,\u201d Houzz notes in its trend report. For example, Houzz reports that online searches have more than tripled year-over-year for \u201corganic modern bedrooms.\u201d Also, over the past year, \u201corganic modern\u201d searches for dining rooms, kitchens, bathrooms and living rooms also are rising significantly.<\/li>\n\n\n\n
  2. Dark and moody colors.<\/strong> While some styles are getting more muted, others are getting bolder. Searches for \u201cmoody living rooms\u201d and \u201cmoody kitchens\u201d have doubled compared to a year ago, according to Houzz.\u00a0 Also, searches for \u201cdark ceiling\u201d styles are up 60% compared to a year ago. The darker tones are in sharp contrast to the bright whites and light grays that have been dominating interiors in recent years. \u201cWe see designers on Houzz use dark and moody colors to help make spaces feel cozy and intimate, or bold and dramatic,\u201d the study notes. For example, designers are layering in rich browns and deep reds for a \u201cmoody bedroom.\u201d<\/li>\n\n\n\n
  3. Reading rooms.<\/strong> \u201cDark academia\u201d is a scholarly subculture style devoted to reading, writing and learning. It was a popular look in fashion and has now entered the home. Houzz reports that searches for \u201cdark academia\u201d home styles tripled in the first quarter of this year compared to a year earlier. For example, online searches are soaring for the British style \u201csnug\u201d as homeowners look to wall off a cozy area for reading or solitary relaxation. Searches also are rising for terms like \u201clibrary wall,\u201d \u201creading corner\u201d and \u201cbook nook.\u201d<\/li>\n\n\n\n
  4. \u201cJapandi\u201d style.<\/strong> Japanese design is inspiring more home interiors, borrowing from its signatures of simplicity, natural elements and harmonious living spaces. \u201cJapandi\u201d is a term that relates to a hybrid design style of Japanese minimalism with Scandinavian functionality, Houzz notes. Online searches are growing for Japandi kitchens, bedrooms and bathrooms. Also, design aesthetics like \u201cwabi-sabi\u201d and \u201cZen garden\u201d also are seeing an uptick in online searches, researchers note.<\/li>\n\n\n\n
  5. Wellness.<\/strong> Wellness continues to be a top focus in home interiors, with \u201ccold plunge,\u201d \u201cindoor saunas,\u201d \u201chome spas\u201d and \u201cbackyard saunas\u201d all gaining more attention from remodelers. Homeowners also want their renovations to bring in more natural light, such as with large windows and skylights, Houzz\u2019s report notes.<\/li>\n\n\n\n
  6. Leisure spaces.<\/strong> Hangout spaces are trendy: For example, online searches for \u201clistening rooms\u201d have more than doubled. Also, \u201cliving room pianos\u201d are trending, another sign of a stronger desire for specialized areas to enjoy music within the home. Outdoor leisure activities also are gaining popularity, with searches for \u201cbocce court\u201d up 23% and indoor recreational spaces, such as a \u201cbowling alley\u201d and \u201cgame room,” up 18% and 16%, respectively.<\/li>\n\n\n\n
  7. Kid zones.<\/strong> Along with a growing desire for leisure spaces, areas in the home specially designed for children are growing in popularity. For example, \u201crace car beds,\u201d \u201cJack-and-Jill bathrooms,\u201d \u201cteen lounge\u201d and \u201ckids\u2019 gaming bedroom\u201d are all seeing an uptick in online searches, according to Houzz\u2019s report.<\/li>\n<\/ol>\n\n\n\n
