Palo Alto, California — Houzz uses its community of more than 65 million homeowners and home design enthusiasts and more than 2.7 million active home renovation and design professionals to predict trends in kitchen, bathroom, and outdoor design in 2022, and Universal design and sustainability.

The following are Houzz's top 10 home design trends:

Many homeowners on Houzz dream of a bright and bright kitchen. One way to achieve this goal is to use a lot of windows that flow in natural light. Long multiple windows, sometimes on two or even three walls, create a space full of light, breeze (if the windows can be operated), and scenery. Due to the industrious storage room walls, storage-optimized island bases, and the rise of lower cabinets that allow homeowners to skip the upper cabinet, we expect homeowners to use a large number of windows in 2022.

Although the 2021 American Houzz kitchen trend study confirmed that all-white kitchens are still dominant, the layered appearance is becoming more and more popular. Last year we saw a well-dressed, collected style that will last until 2022, albeit in a more casual and less polished way, with softer, lighter paint colors, raw wood tones, and cabinet facades and styles the mix of. This lightweight layered design keeps the eyeball moving, creates visual texture and nuance, and provides a style that fits together in a relaxed way over time.

White subway tiles are the classic look of kitchen backsplashes, but many homeowners are looking for modern styles of materials. White ceramic 4 x 12 inch tiles seem to be the answer. The rectangle gives people a sense of timelessness, while its slender form gives people a fresh and updated appearance. On Houzz, we see that a backsplash with subtle wavy or cracked glaze will add texture, or a herringbone pattern can make the design more rotating.

The right storage strategy can create a powerful home. Although the general function of the cabinet has not changed much over the years, the interior of the cabinet has undergone tremendous changes. The pull-out device brings the contents of the storage room from the back of the cabinet to the front. Special shelves lift heavy equipment from the lower cabinet to the height of the work surface. The drawer divider organizes plates and bowls. You can now specify storage space for paper towel rolls, aluminum foil or bakeware in the kitchen. In the bathroom, the drawer can place a hair dryer or other equipment next to the socket in the drawer. We saw small rooms for towels, hidden storage space for laundry baskets, etc. in popular photos on Houzz.

A comfortable shower room is an important function of the bathroom, but equipped with multiple shower heads and shower heads can elevate the shower experience from simple washing to luxurious care. According to the Houzz bathroom trend in the United States in 2021, more than half (55%) of homeowners who update their showers during bathroom renovation choose rain shower heads, nearly a quarter (23%) choose dual shower heads, and 16% add body spray Learn. In addition to multiple shower heads, Houzz's bathroom design experts also recommend the installation of hand-held sprayers. These can be used to rinse shaved legs, clean shower walls or clean pets and children.

Many homeowners are starting to renovate to create their forever homes, which means incorporating common design principles, which will contribute to accessibility in the coming years. Nowadays, universal design prioritizes products and functions that look as good as they are. For example, some armrests use fashionable finishes, such as champagne copper or matte black, and hide their function as a towel bar, fulfilling dual tasks while meeting the guidelines of the Americans with Disabilities Act. Other barrier-free design features, such as roll-in showers, non-slip floors, and shower benches, have become fashionable features that homeowners of all ages yearn for.

When we asked more than 50 home design and renovation professionals on Houzz, what bathroom features they most recommended to homeowners, one of which is higher than the others: heated floors. Cold tile floors can ruin the spa-like experience, while heated floors are relatively cheap and easy to install during renovations, which makes this feature a breeze.

Sustainable building practices have long been the focus of environmentalists’ attention, but recent changes in global conversations have brought individual homeowners’ interests to the forefront, triggering a new wave of adoption. High-performance windows and solar panels help homeowners reduce energy use, which can also help homeowners save money. Native trees and grasses can help create water-saving landscapes while also attracting delightful wildlife. When personal interests have a positive collateral impact on the world, everyone benefits.

Houzz search data shows that people want their backyard to be a relaxing extension of their indoor living space. The best way is through imitation. In recent years, significant progress has been made in outdoor materials, enabling manufacturers to create stylish and durable outdoor sofas, tables, carpets, chairs and decorations. Add an outdoor fireplace, maybe a TV, and the boundary between indoor and outdoor seems to disappear.

As homeowners increasingly expand the available living space to the outdoors, many people are hiring landscape experts on Houzz to make screens, fences, plants and other things that help create private spaces and isolate neighbors or block poor views. Strategy. This may look like a vine-covered pergola, outdoor screens around private dining venues, or fences for outdoor showers or hot tubs. The independent structure is used as a home office, gym, meditation area or extended living space to accommodate relatives or children who have to stay at home due to the pandemic.
