Metric Design’s Brandon Gay reports that more people have been remodelling their homes to reflect a different set of priorities recently.
“People are looking for spaces that feel casual, collected, curated,” Gay says. “I think that there is a heightened need for our homes to be as personal as possible, given how much time we’ve recently spent in our homes.”More dynamic backsplashes are coming into vogue. The standard sized three-by-one subway tile has given way to a more dramatic three-by-twelve. Random tiles, or exaggerated herringbone patterns and handcrafted textures can also add some personal flair.
Perhaps as a nod to everyone’s desire to gather friends and family for special occasions, Gay says he’s seeing a return of the formal dining room in new builds.“We’re becoming so much more aware of what products are made of where are they coming from, how can I shop local? And it’s important to be having those conversations,” says Gay.Advertisement 3“With changes in social dynamics, keeping your mental health a priority is so important.
Mid-century modern continues to dominate design conversations. Adding in a painted brick wall and a lively wallpaper can add some personal flair.For example, an extra-large table lamp can prompt conversation and be a quirky addition to any room. Another option might be adding a bold, pattern-heavy wallpaper. Or try adding a curvy piece of furniture such as a funky sofa to punch up a bland sitting room.
Exploring colour options is another way to express your personal style. Gay recently redid a kitchen by painting the cabinets a pastel pink. The contrast with walnut accents energized the small space.
