Remodeling is all about taking your old, boring home and giving it a makeover, so it’s more up-to-date with remodeling trends. While your home should reflect your personality, it’s also important to know what remodeling trends are currently in fashion. Getting in on current trends doesn’t mean having to give up your home’s unique personality, though. A good design and build firm like Winthorpe Design and Build can incorporate elements of remodeling trends into your project in a way that resonates with who you are. It won’t matter how in-style your build is if you don’t like it.
If you are sold on the idea that your design has to match up with all of the high-end remodels you see trending, then you probably want to stay one step ahead of the game. But we know just how difficult that can be in the age of the internet, where nothing is in-style for more than a few months before it becomes a faux-pas. That’s why Winthorpe Design and Build has found some of the best available high-end remodeling insights for you. That way, you can stay on track with your favorite trending designs.
The Rise of Multi-Generational Living
Whether it’s out of necessity or because of a desire to be close to family, the number of people living with their sons, daughters, parents, grandparents, or others is undeniably increasing. There’s no missing the increase in multigenerational living. Many people view multigenerational living as a good thing, but one thing tends to get in the way: a lack of space.
The solution for many has been to add more rooms or upgrade existing space into something more livable. These rooms not only provide more space, but they’re easy to design for children or people with special needs.
Adding on rooms is expensive, though, and not everyone has the money for it. Don’t lose hope! Winthorpe Design and Build is more than willing to remodel what you already have, and we’ve been doing it for years. There’s nothing we want more than to make sure that our clients’ needs are met and that they’re happy in their homes.
If you find yourself living in a home with too many people for the space available but can’t afford a full add-on, here are some cheaper and more manageable options to consider:
- Remove some walls.
- Expand what you have.
- Change to a more open floor plan.
- Remodel your home to become more foot-traffic friendly.
- Add shelves and storage to reduce clutter.
- Convert part of your garage or attic into storage or living space.
The Perfect Time to Remodel
Many experts agree that now is one of the best times in years for people to remodel their homes. Between some surprisingly affordable building options and the flexibility that many companies have recently developed, remodeling is easier than ever before.
Clients in the market to remodel now have more options for contacting contractors, getting a consultation, and even designing the build. Winthorpe Design and Build is not excluded from the long list of firms that have changed their process to be more stay-at-home friendly. We walk you through the process more intimately than many other firms, and we make sure you understand what’s going on every step of the way. We’ve always prided ourselves on our reasonable prices, too.
An Increasing Sense of Self
The last few years have been pretty rough, but at least one good thing came out of this turmoil. People across the globe are becoming more comfortable with themselves and expressing who they are. They are making this known in the way they dress and speak and how they portray themselves across media. It’s only logical that the rising trend of people displaying their personalities will also extend to the way they design their homes.
As we said initially, being yourself and letting that shine through your designs is always the best option. Who knows? You may even become the inspiration for the world’s next major remodeling trend.
