Homes by Taber knows that interior design is a deeply personal decision, as every homeowner wants their home to reflect their personality and style preferences. That’s why we offer endless options to choose from that can be mixed and matched to find the exact aesthetic you’re looking for. To see what’s trending in new home construction, read on below for trends 6 through 9 and check out trends 1 through 5 in the first part of this two-part blog series for trends. 

Coastal & Clean 

New Construction Top Trend #6 - You might be building a home in non-coastal Oklahoma, but that doesn’t mean you can’t be inspired by coastal colors and textures. By incorporating various shades of calming and complementary blues throughout your home, you’ll create the perfect palette to decorate alongside. Include a transitional arabesque backsplash in white in the kitchen to brighten up the space and tie it all together with warm-toned wood tile and stainless steel fixtures.

Funky & Foolproof 

New Construction Top Trend #7 - If you want your home to have a fun, eclectic pop without going overboard, we suggest using a funk pattern and bright colors next to simple neutrals. As you read in the first post of our blog series on interior design trends, blue cabinets are all the rage right now. Incorporating a deep teal cabinet in your kitchen is less intimidating when paired with a clean, modern subway tile backsplash. Trendy patterned tile floors will make a statement in any bathroom, especially when seen alongside neutrals that complement each other.

Contrasting & Cool    

New Construction Top Trend #8 - Contrast makes for a dramatic and distinctive interior space, and nothing creates a more alluring contrast than black and white. This forever classic look can be updated with beautiful black and white patterned tile floors, stark cabinetry (opt for different colored upper and lower cabinets for an even trendier look) and matte black hardware. By pairing the look with a natural wood stain flooring and a light exterior brick, your home’s interior and exterior will look hip and clean for years to come. 

Warm & Welcoming   

New Construction Top Trend #9 - Sometimes homeowners struggle with finding the right balance when including multiple wood tones throughout their house. But when done correctly, it can be a warm and welcoming canvas to any type of décor and accent paint colors. With honey-toned wood look tile floors, natural wood exterior accents and darker wood kitchen cabinets, you can modernize the traditional, wood-heavy look that can often be associated with older homes. Incorporating bright white tiles and paint lightens things up, while matte black finishes tie all of the neutral colors together.
