beltmann3_02-17

As we gear up for another new year, it’s time to take a look at things that will be trending over the next few months. Whether you’re planning a move or a renovation – keeping trends top-of-mind will keep your home or project fresh and inspiring.

Marble Wallpaper

Wallpaper made a come-back a few years ago. When it came back, it came back as just that – wallpaper. But, since then it has taken on new disguises and textures. We love this one, which emulates a marble wall without the price tag. We anticipate this will be on-trend for most of the year, as wallpaper becomes a versatile way to dress up any space.

Copper

Metallics and metals have definitely been in the limelight over the past few years, but copper has been a late bloomer. We love this trend because it’s an affordable metal that offers a lot of style-points as a large statement piece or small details in room.

An unexpected décor material that you will be seeing more of in 2017 is acrylic. This modern material adds an airy and dream-like touch to any room. You will be seeing it more in furniture and home accessory options.

Heated Floors

This may seem expected, but heated floors are becoming a must-have in more homes. There are now numerous ways to build them into floors throughout the home – which makes them more affordable than ever before. If you’re considering a kitchen or bathroom renovation, you should definitely entertain the idea of adding heat to the project.
