Tired of the home design trends that only seem fresh until the next big trend comes along? Color and style trends can often date a look when new fashions come along, but some aspects of design trends for 2015 will be “evergreen” in more than one way.
Functional versatility is one such aspect that you can appreciate in 2015 and long afterwards. The focus on reuse and recycling of materials is also another winning trend that will not go out of style.
Finally, bold, contemporary, styling that has a high visual impact will always give people a reason to take a second look.
Functional Versatility of 2015 Home Design Trends
Designing homes in 2015 includes the use of technology and innovation to bring high functionality and versatility to the home. For instance, these were some of the top 2015 trends that made life more versatile:
Smart Homes
Homes are getting smarter these days, making it easier for homeowners to take care of home maintenance issues, even when they’re not at home. With the use of software, people can open doors remotely, take video inside the home, and even keep track of the temperature when they’re not there.
Attention to Indoor and Outdoor Spaces
This year, furniture and lighting are as popular outdoors as indoors. Modern furniture, in particular, works well whether indoors or outdoors as it often has materials that are easy to clean.
Mix and Match Materials with a Green Emphasis
Utilizing materials that can be reused and recycled is still a very powerful design trend, even in 2015.
You can now find this type of preference even in:
Furnishings
Glass is by far the biggest material being put up as walls, on cabinet doors, and as tabletops. However, it can also be mixed and matched with salvaged wood and warm metals, like copper.
Garage Doors
Folding glass garage doors or special black metal doors that keep the sunlight from making the doors too hot to handle are making a statement in 2015. In addition, garage doors made from green materials are also increasing in popularity.
Bold Contemporary Styling with High Visual Impact
Bigger is better in 2015, and that applies to garage doors with unique contemporary styling as well as large modular furniture pieces. In 2015, you’ll notice these design home trends:
Large Wall Art
It can be a living green wall or a large repetitive print. Home design trends make use of recycled or natural elements, even in wall art.
Converting Function to Art
Why not make use of the large dramatic impact of a space like your garage doors to create artistic interest? In keeping with blurred outdoor and indoor spaces, add some windows to the garage doors to create more visual impact.
Use large modular sectionals as furniture that can pull double‑duty as storage or extra table space.
With such versatility, these 2015 trends can be rearranged throughout the years and never go out of style.
