The Hottest Home Design Trends for 2022

Here at Allen Edwin Homes, we understand one of the most exciting parts of building new is being able to hand select the features and style of your home! No worries about carpeting from the 70s or bubble-gum pink wallpaper. During the build process, you will be invited to our over 4,000 square foot Design Studio , where you can pick out lighting, flooring, cabinets (pretty much EVERYTHING) to make your home move-in ready to your desire. Rest assured, the Design Studio is up on all the hottest trends, and we have noticed some items really making a splash in 2022.


1.     Gold, Gold, Gold

In 2022, everyone is sold on gold! Having gold cabinet hardware, plumbing fixtures, and lighting fixtures is one way to make sure your new home is on trend. Gold has been used forever, but is definitely one of the current must have colors to make a statement! It is nice when something current & trendy is also classic, because you know your choice will still be “in” no matter how many years pass!

2.     Dual-Colored Kitchens

In 2020, we saw the rise of the all-white kitchen, but this year adding some color is making a big splash! The color homeowners are requesting more than ever for their kitchen island is navy. These colors also mesh perfectly with the trendy golf finishes & fixtures. This trend helps give your kitchen a more dimensional and high end look.

3.     Lighter Wood Tones – Especially in Flooring

Homeowners are wanting their homes to feel light and airy, and light wood floors help achieve this look! With light wood floors, decorating is a breeze because both bold and neutral colors pair extremely well. This leaves each individual homeowner free to make decorative style choices that make the home totally feel like “you”! Wood itself is also one of the most timeless materials around – you can be confident in wood floors sticking around as a popular choice.
