Home Design that is a Reflection of You!

Every Homeowner has their own vision of how they’d like their home to look and to be a true reflection of their own personal style. Whether you’re in the market for a new home, or looking to bring some life back into your current home, here are some design trends to help guide you!

Just remember, always make your home a representation of you, not what the next expert or home design magazine says it should be!

Artsy accents

When cookie cutter just won’t do – one-of-a-kind décor is in. When choosing accent pieces, focus on those that mean something to you, not just the next mass-produced item on the shelf. Find a quirky picture frame that makes you smile, and put one of the one-armed-picture-taking self portraits of you and your significant other in it! And don’t pass up the next piece of art you see that really stands out! Make it work with your home décor!

Natural light

Capture as much of it as possible! Windows can make a home seem and feel larger when used properly. At David Weekley Homes, we're all about windows. Natural light beaming into a room can change your mood, awaken your senses and brighten up your décor!

Classic colors: traditional and timeless…or not

With paint colors, all types of shades are in! Go from the typical beige to a gray tone on the walls. Don’t be afraid of pinks and purples, and mix the colors in with each other. Another popular trend this year is mixing matte and shiny tones of the same color. This will give your walls a unique, yet subtle “pop!”

Flexible living spaces – what we like to refer to as FlexSpace^SM

Your home should grow with you. Not literally, of course, but by having flexible living spaces that can adapt to your ever-changing and growing family. Take a Bonus Room for example… when you have young children, it serves as the perfect play room. When the kids are grown and the baby dolls and LEGOS^® are a thing of the past, turn it into a TV room! It’s about having options and building a home with a floor plan for you to choose the room’s purpose!

There you have it… a few tips and trends to help make your new home a true reflection of your own unique style! Stay tuned for more helpful tips and trends, coming each month in David Weekley’s Home Club newsletter.
