Outdoor Pizza Ovens and Kitchens
Ordering out? No, thank you! You could spend 2021 making the best dinners on the block with an outdoor pizza oven. Prefer to expand the cuisine on the menu? Outdoor kitchens have reached the top of the trends too!
Touchless Tech
The great disinfecting of 2020 has stepped into 2021. Save yourself some time and effort with touchless technology, like lights that turn on with motion sensors and automatic faucets. They’ll likely increase the overall value of your home too.
Knitted Tapestries
Next up on our list of home design trends to look forward to in 2021 is knitted tapestries! You may recognize them from all over your Instagram grid. Not only do they look good, but they allow us a chance to find creations made by small businesses or local crafters. That way, your house looks fantastic—and you’ve done your part to support creators in town making a happy home of their own.
A Sectioned-Off Office Area
The year of working from home continues! You may be one of the lucky folks who already has an in-demand home office. If not, use a sheet or divider to section off an area of your home for a mini office. You may even have the space to transform a walk-in closet into a makeshift office area. Either way, you can cultivate a dedicated workspace. Still feel like you need a bigger spot? It may be time to move!
No Such Thing as Too Soft
Fluffy rugs. Accent pillows galore. Cute cushions. In 2021, there’s no such thing as too soft! Make your nest with this in mind.
A Return to the Past
Our grandparents’ homes aren’t old-fashioned—they were just several decades ahead of the curve! From brightly colored walls to vibrant vintage furniture, the past is back in a big way this year.
Plan for Some Plants
Are you a succulent fan? A floral lover? Or do you just need something leafy and green? No matter which you choose, you can add some natural beauty to 2021 with indoor plants.
