Many homeowners are for ways to make their homes fit their new realities after spending more time at home owing to the COVID-19 epidemic. Dedicated spaces for remote work and study are in; open floor layouts are out. Walls are being renovated and yards are being turned into recreational places. Simultaneously, growing demand and safety concerns may extend the renovation process significantly.   

Here’s a look at the top 5 home remodeling trends that improve the way we live in 2022:  

  

  1. A focus on dedicated spaces 

At the start of 2020, the most requested design concept was open space. But now, we face various sets of design implications because everyone’s living conditions have changed after the pandemic. It was unusual a year ago for one family member to work from home. Because of the noise in the open design, it is now impossible for parents and children to get work done.  

This year, we expect homeowners to provide more time to convert extra rooms or nooks into specialized spaces rather than tearing down walls to open up common areas. This may entail installing a home office or home theater or converting a nook into a distance-learning environment.  

  

  1. Making room for home offices 

Instead of increasing square footage to their homes, homeowners are removing infrequently used closets, such as those in the hallway, and relocating interior walls to make room for home offices. The trend of working from home isn't going away anytime soon.  

Even when the pandemic is over, there’ll be a lot of professionals still working from home. Because of this trend, the use of home technology is also increasing as households install items such as ethernet cables for computer networks and Bluetooth speakers. Our Interior Design Services Tyler Texas can help you make your dream into reality. 

  

  1. Multifunctional Rooms 

Adults working from home and kids learning in virtual school often meant many people fighting for the same work or study space in a home. As a result, multifunctional rooms are a popular trend in 2022. These are spaces that can be used as both study halls and work zones, with Zoom sets and comfy seats, as well as central charging outlets.  

Kitchen islands have previously acted as both breakfast bars and classrooms, so expect the trend to move toward carving out dedicated nooks for each function. The return on investment for a simple kitchen makeover might be extremely appealing if you decide to sell the house later. Convertible workstations and gym equipment that allows you to work and exercise at the same time might be part of the trend.  

  

  1. Extending the indoors into the outdoors 

Creating a comfortable outdoor living space that is an extension of your indoors will continue to be popular with 2022 home renovations, and not just in the warmer climates. Interior Designing will be a natural flow between the indoors and outdoors with features like large sliding or folding glass doors which will allow the option to let the outside in and vice versa. Drop-down screens on the porch to help deal with mosquitos, outdoor heating lights, outdoor fireplaces to keep you warm, and soft couches will keep you comfortable far into the fall and winter.  

 

  1. Getting bigger with tiles 

Making visual enhancements is a key element of the home remodel trends because we spend so much time at home. Large-format tile can help visually expand a small space, so their trend is on the rise. Another advantage of the trend is that there are fewer grout lines, which means less cleaning and aesthetic clutter. We’re seeing large tiles used in a variety of classic patterns, such as herringbone, stacked, and brick being used nowadays. If you're thinking of large rectangle tiles for a bathroom floor, going with a matte surface is preferable, which gives some slide resistance.
