Spending so much time at home in 2020 caused many people to rethink life at home.
Private spaces
With families both working and schooling from home, many people started feeling open floor plans were too open and found themselves longing for more private spaces… looking for separate spaces for Zooming, lounging, exercising, e-learning… even just carving out a private corner.
Bringing the outdoors in
Homeowners are craving nature and bringing in houseplants, herbs, creating indoor container gardens.
Using organic and natural elements
After so many years of all-white white kitchens with granite countertops, wood-grain countertops and even wood-grain cabinets is a new trend… a sign of tying home design elements to nature.
Outdoor living spaces
Being cooped up inside has led people to seek more outdoor spaces for both living and solitude. Firepits, screened-in porches and outdoor kitchens have all become more popular during the pandemic.
