2021 Decor Trends You Don't Want to Miss

by Rudden|Bobruska Team 12/05/2021

Home decor trends are constantly changing and evolving and many people want to keep up with the times. Fortunately, it's relatively easy to add a few new pieces to any room and quickly get on trend.

If you are looking to update your home decor in 2021, you may want to consider jumping on board with a few of these top trends:

Colorful Cabinets

For years, neutrals reigned supreme in the kitchen. The kitchen is the heart of the home so people were often hesitant to add pops of bright, bold color in this central room. However, many are now putting their fears behind them and moving forward with colorful kitchen cabinets with confidence. Colors such as sea green and pale blue are becoming increasingly popular and many design experts think that color-filled kitchens will be here to stay for a while.

Pastel Paints

If there is anything that was learned from the trials of 2020, it's that the home space should be a peaceful and relaxing place where you can truly get away from it all. As a result, pastel colors are making a comeback, and many are opting for pale shades for their walls. Colors such as lavender, rose or daffodil yellow add warmth to any room regardless of its size.

Floral Wallpaper in Statement Rooms

Granny chic appears to be the style of 2021 - and that's meant as a compliment, not an insult. Floral wallpaper, in particular, is making a big comeback in statement rooms such as living rooms, bathrooms and even bedrooms.

Plants

For those who are passionate about decorating with plants, one plant tucked in the corner of the entryway is not enough. Entire plant collections have become staples of home decor. Plants not only add a bit of natural beauty to any room, but they also work to purify the air and make your home a healthier place to live.

Backsplashes Created from Patterned Tiles

Tiled backsplashes have been trending over the past several years as people seek a clean and practical look for their kitchens. While plain ceramic tiles were most popular at first, many are finding that it's fun to be a bit more daring. In 2021, ceramic pattern tiles are all the rage. These tiles, which can add depth and interest in an instant, are the perfect way to accent a new, more colorful kitchen.

Wicker Furniture

It may be time to ditch the Mid-Mod furniture that you have been collecting over the past five years, because the wicker furniture of the 1970s and 1980s is coming back. These pieces are practical and versatile and can easily be incorporated into any room.

If any of these trends are appealing to you, take advantage of the moment and upgrade your living space with fresh decor. However, there's nothing saying that you have to stay on trend. You are the person who has to live in your home and it should always reflect your own personality and preferences!

What sets your team apart from other real estate teams?

There is no team out in the market that offers what we do. All of us are Realtors, but

we each have specialized roles, which make our team so unique!

After decades of living and selling real estate in the DMV, we have established

ourselves as one of the top real estate teams with our market expertise and

cutting-edge technology. Our savvy high-tech marketing is on every website

and social media source. We have a huge network with other top agents, which

helps to premarket homes and discover homes for buyers before they reach the

open market. Our services include professional in-house staging services, broker

expertise in negotiating and navigating contracts, and buyer representation in all

price ranges. Each client has different needs and we create a marketing plan based

on those needs.

Our most distinct feature is our in-house construction and renovation team. We

are literally a full-service, one-stop shop when selling or buying a home!

How does the in-house construction and renovation team work?

All work is managed and completed through our licensed and bonded construction

crew. No need to call outside contractors. We are like “HGTV,” but we just don’t

have a show! Whether it’s a small makeover or a major renovation, we do it all. Our

sellers love this aspect of our team because we make preparing your home for the

market so seamless. Our buyers love the advice and insight we can give for future

renovations and repairs.

Having a licensed Maryland Home Improvement contractor as part of our team

along with the knowledge, experience, commitment and services that we offer, truly

puts our team as a vanguard in the real estate industry.
