Cases in point: the rise of the home office and backyard pools.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Some hot trends started years earlier, including energy efficiency, conservation of natural resources (especially in fire- and hurricane-ravaged areas), and affordable housing.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>In addition, each cohort has its own wish list\u2014baby boomers want lower maintenance and millennials want strong broadband connectivity.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>One caveat: Know that there\u2019s no universal agreement about what\u2019s in and what\u2019s out, even among our pundits who offered these ideas.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><strong>1. High-Speed Internet and Broadband: <\/strong>A home office or workspace remains essential for many home buyers, but if a house doesn\u2019t have a good digital infrastructure, work-from-home buyers may not be interested, says associate broker Lori Hoffman with the Usha Subramaniam Team at <a href=\"https:\/\/www.compass.com\/agents\/lori-hoffman\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">Compass in Chappaqua, a suburb of New York.<\/a> \u201cYoung buyers coming from urban areas expect it, yet it\u2019s not always available,\u201d she says. Her advice is to make sure high speed is available for your buyers, and if it\u2019s not, find an alternative before they invest.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><strong>2. Quality, Quality, Quality:<\/strong> Location may still be king, but buyers want quality in building materials, systems, and appliances since they know how hard it is to secure materials due to supply chain disruptions and find a contractor who\u2019s available and can get the work done right. \u201cThey don\u2019t want inexpensive gray and white vanities with a composition top. They prefer something like a dark navy or sleek modern dark wood with a thick porcelain top, something that echoes Mid-Century style,\u201d Hoffman says. They also want personalized items that suggest quality, such as a kitchen island that resembles a piece of furniture, says J.T. Norman, business development, product, and design innovation specialist at <a href=\"https:\/\/www.kitchenmagic.com\/local\/nazareth\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">Kitchen Magic in Nazareth, Pa.<\/a> Buyers also prefer that original brick is left unpainted but given trim that\u2019s accented with a dark color, says architect Eddie Maestri, founder of <a href=\"https:\/\/www.maestristudio.com\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">Maestri Studio in Dallas<\/a>.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><strong>3. An Encore for Home Theaters, and a Welcoming to Yoga Studios and Sophisticated Lounges:<\/strong> After losing appeal because they took up too much space, home theaters are popular again as homeowners seek more at-home entertainment. Most are constructed on the first floor or lower level, says designer Joe Fava, CEO of <a href=\"https:\/\/favadesigngroup.com\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">Fava Design Group in Miami<\/a>. A newcomer to the trends list is a yoga studio as homeowners look for ways to unwind and stay fit at home, he says. Maestri also has received more requests for an intimate living space\u2014what he terms a lounge or parlor\u2014that includes club chairs and a bar, but no TV.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><strong>4. Purple is the New Gray (or Black): <\/strong>Once considered the color of royalty, purple has become one of the \u201creigning\u201d requests in the increasingly colorful world of home design, says Scottsdale, Ariz.\u2013based designer Julia Buckingham of <a href=\"https:\/\/www.juliabuckinghaminteriors.com\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">Julia Buckingham Interiors<\/a>. \u201cIt\u2019s a jewel tone that is both rich and neutral as a base for bright or more earthy hues.\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>In one project, she mixed it with a lively red and a natural stone chandelier. \u201cIt plays well with both vintage and modern, which makes my \u2018<a href=\"https:\/\/www.barnesandnoble.com\/w\/modernique-julia-buckingham\/1124692272\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">Modernique<\/a>\u2019 heart very happy,\u201d she says.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Norman says an earthy khaki green is also a current favorite choice. Color expert <a href=\"https:\/\/amywax.com\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">Amy Wax of Your Color Source<\/a> predicts the popular colors in 2022 will relate to nature. She anticipates softer greens, earthy taupes, warm browns, and off-whites. We may also see a nod to happier times and a carefree lifestyle in the form of brighter teals, Kelly greens, peaches, and oranges.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><strong>5. More Outdoor Changes: <\/strong>Having a yard or balcony gained ground during the pandemic and remains a big draw for buyers. As homeowners spent more time outdoors, their wish list for that space evolved. Hoffman finds that buyers want a flat yard that\u2019s more usable than a hilly one. More people want a pool, so much so that many installers are booked into next year. Huntsville, Utah\u2013based landscape architect Laurie Van Zandt of <a href=\"https:\/\/theardentgardener.net\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">The Ardent Gardener<\/a> says she usually designs one or two a year, but in 2021 she designed eight. A fire pit is also still high on wish lists, but an elaborate outdoor kitchen with a pizza oven and beer tap has waned in popularity\u2014many found they rarely use these bells and whistles. What\u2019s needed is a good 42-inch grill and cabinetry, says Chicago kitchen designer Mick De Giulio of <a href=\"https:\/\/degiuliodesign.com\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">de Giulio Kitchen Design.<\/a><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>When it comes to furnishings, Van Zandt says several clients have asked for nostalgic items that remind them of their grandparents, such as a porch swing, or have wanted to reflect their heritage through plant choices, colors, or design items. They also favored less-manicured gardens and yards with native grass seed blends.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Greenwich, Conn.\u2013based <a href=\"https:\/\/janiceparker.com\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">landscape architect Janice Parker<\/a> says she has started incorporating lighting that looks like it comes from a natural source, such as candles. In climates where bugs are prevalent or homeowners want to extend their outdoor enjoyment, there\u2019s greater interest in screened porches, says home staging expert Kristie Barnett of <a href=\"https:\/\/thedecorologist.com\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">Nashville-based The Decorologist<\/a>. To connect outdoor or quasi-outdoor spaces to indoors, more homeowners are replacing windows with movable glass walls, says Norman.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><strong>6. Mid-Century Modern + Contemporary Chic:<\/strong> Design styles vary, but there\u2019s agreement that a house with Mid-Century Modern <a href=\"https:\/\/www.nar.realtor\/magazine\/tools\/architectural-styles\/residential\">architectural details<\/a> and home furnishings stay a favorite, followed closely by contemporary, so long as the latter is warm and inviting rather than cold and spare, says Fava.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><strong>7. First-Floor Bedroom: Yes or No?<\/strong> Some experts say a house without a first-level bedroom is challenged. Not so, says Hoffman, who says it depends on who\u2019s sleeping there. \u201cIt\u2019s more important to boomers. My younger buyers considering a two-story home want all the bedrooms to be together on the upper level,\u201d she says.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><strong>8. Open Plan Living? Yes, But \u2026<\/strong> While there\u2019s no single plan that appeals universally, Hoffman finds that most of her buyers still want an open concept plan. \u201cA choppy plan with rooms broken up takes longer to sell, and the kitchen has to open to some sort of family room. However, the dining room can be its own room,\u201d she says. When there\u2019s a separate traditional living room, she finds her buyers ask, \u201cWhat do I do with this room?\u201d Others say the openness between rooms is closing a bit. \u201cHomeowners still want sight lines from a kitchen to family room, but they no longer need rooms in a row and prefer some separation, maybe, with pocket doors or an island,\u201d says Maestri.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><strong>9. Maximalism: <\/strong>The minimalism of the last few years is fading, while maximalism is soaring. What that means is rooms are being filled with comfortable furnishings, rugs, art, and collections with character, according to Laurel Vernazza, home design expert at <a href=\"https:\/\/www.theplancollection.com\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">The Plan Collection<\/a>, a company that sells house plan designs. The fresh look doesn\u2019t mean crowded, overstuffed spaces. One way to achieve the look is by mixing materials, like stones, metals (lots of bronze and less polished chrome and brushed nickel of recent years), fabrics with a nubby feel, different woods, and trendy matte black hues. \u201cIt\u2019s a way to add richness,\u201d says Fava, who finds clients want cocktail tables with several metal finishes or sofas with a metallic base. Another way to inject the look is to use curved elements instead of straight lines, such as arched openings, barrel-vaulted ceilings, and curvy furniture and walkways, says Vernazza. There\u2019s also more architectural detail like fluting, Maestri says.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><strong>10. Spotlight on Ceilings: <\/strong>Periodically, the fifth wall of a room gains prominence. Now is one of those moments. The ceiling is being designed to stand out and be more attractive. Dated ceilings, such as those with the popcorn look, textured Styrofoam, or bumpy stucco are being targeted by homeowners for remodeling. Ted Speers, president of <a href=\"https:\/\/www.thepatchboys.com\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">The Patch Boys, a national drywall, ceiling, and plaster repair franchise<\/a>, suggests owners first test for asbestos, then scrape off the texture, repair the ceiling with drywall compound, and sand.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>In upper-level rooms, designers like Buckingham make lighting fixtures the focal point of a ceiling or stairwell to create a modern art display that adds height, volume, and a light play when lit. But the caveat, she says, is that it can be a \u201cbeast to navigate the correct proportions and heights.\u201d That\u2019s where an interior designer can help. What\u2019s out, she says, are small, mass-produced, lantern fixtures in an industrial or farmhouse style. Maestri likes to use high-gloss paint for reflectivity or wallpaper.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><strong>11. Smaller, But Not Tiny:<\/strong> Ever since author and architect Sarah Susanka published her first book on smaller homes in 1998, <em>The Not So Big House<\/em>, there\u2019s been interest in how smaller homes can offer comfortable, functional living. Author Sherri Koones\u2019 book, <em>Bigger than Tiny, Smaller than Average<\/em>, also explores the subject. Smaller houses\u20142,000 square feet or less\u2014are in high demand but short supply. The reasons for their popularity, Koones says, are that people are getting married later and having fewer children, while boomers are opting for smaller homes. Certain features help spaces look larger and function better, such as integrated outdoor areas, high ceilings, light-colored walls, open floor plans, well-placed windows, and niches and hallways that serve as workspaces.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><strong>12. All-Electric Homes: <\/strong>More homeowners understand the importance of \u201cdecarbonizing\u201d everything from products to transportation, and especially their homes, says Chicago- and Boulder, Colo.-based architect Nate Kipnis of <a href=\"https:\/\/www.kipnisarch.com\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">Kipnis Architecture + Planning.<\/a> \u201cThe way we can best do this is by eliminating all fossil fuels use from houses and including induction cooktops rather than gas for cooking, which offers safer, faster, and more even cooking,\u201d he says. Kipnis recommends using either an air-source heat pump (mini-split) for the HVAC system or a ground source system (geothermal). The big payoff, he says, is that renewable energy has become the cheapest form of electricity generation.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><strong>13. Multifamily Breakout Spaces: <\/strong>The pandemic taught developers and managers of multifamily buildings the importance of flexible shared spaces for socializing and work, termed breakout rooms by some. All the buildings that Keith Gillan\u2019s <a href=\"https:\/\/www.linkedin.com\/company\/murn-properties\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">Maryland-based firm Murn Management<\/a> runs include such spaces for shared use, plus smaller conference rooms on each residential level. Another change in his company\u2019s buildings is bigger residential units to facilitate working from home. \u201cIt\u2019s not that much more expensive to do so at the beginning of the design process and be sure every apartment has a den,\u201d Gillan says.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<hr class=\"wp-block-separator has-alpha-channel-opacity\"\/>\n\n\n\n<p><strong>Bonus Trend: New Model for Affordable Multifamily Living<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>In urban centers, affordable housing is in great demand, yet there are often obstacles to developing it. A new zoning rule in New York is giving rise to a new way to bring affordable units to underserved neighborhoods\u2014it\u2019s termed \u201ctransgenerational housing.\u201d An early example of this growing trend now occupies the corner of 700 Manida St. in the Bronx\u2019s Hunts Point neighborhood. Designed by <a href=\"https:\/\/rktb.com\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">RKTB Architects<\/a> for nonprofits MHANY Management and Nos Quedamos, Phoenix Estates II is one of the first developments to employ the Affordable Independent Residences for Seniors program, a modification of Zoning for Quality and Affordability rules that the city adopted in 2016. \u201cUtilizing the new rule made the project financially feasible by including senior units in the development plan, which increased the amount of developable floor area allowed on the site by 45%,\u201d says RKTB principal Alex Brito, lead architect on the project. Of the 108 studios and 1-, 2-, and 3-bedroom units, 100% are affordable and 48 studios and one 1-bedroom unit are reserved for seniors. The programming for Phoenix Estates II also commingles seniors and families rather than group them separately. The result fosters a sense of community and a more stable and positive living environment for all. The project team\u2019s success in leveraging an obscure zoning rule is inspiring other designers and nonprofit developers to follow.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>National Association of REALTORS\u00ae<br \/>Reprinted with permission<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Key Takeaways: Home design trends that are expected to loom large in 2022 are an evolution of what started during the pandemic when life was disrupted and more homeowners started reevaluating their surroundings.
