2022 Interior Design Trends for Custom Homes in Missouri   

Countertops: Durable materials for your countertops are rising in popularity this year. A beautiful yet strong countertop can really balance out the colors in a room with its simplicity. When building the outline of your kitchen interior design, consider a quartz or a modern granite for the countertops. 

Home offices: It’s no surprise that home offices are trending in new home construction in Missouri. Nearly 16% of companies around the world have switched to a fully-remote work plan, and remote work has grown 44% in the last five years. If there’s any chance you might be working from home frequently, a home office is a must-have in your new house plan. 

Built-in technology: Speaking of a remote job, it’s great to have convenient places for all of your technology and cables! Built-in outlets are everywhere on desks and in drawers so that you never have the problem of a charger not reaching your area. Speak with Dowd Contracting and see what’s possible for the future of your modern home! 

Home Decor Color Trends for 2022 

This year, the trending colors for home decor in 2022 are subdued greens, warm-toned neutrals, and a return to dark brown wood. Purples both berry-toned and lilac are becoming popular too. Several paint manufacturing companies like Sherwin Williams have already selected their color of the year for 2022.

Outdoor ideas for Missouri homes in 2022 

This year, it’s all about the outdoors! Porches, patios and plants are all gaining in popularity when it comes to the exterior of a custom home. Some rattan chairs, some string lights, and a fire pit are perfect for when the springtime comes and you want to host a relaxing bonfire with loved ones. The overall trend we’re seeing is that indoor living is merging with the outdoors in ways such as couches on the patio, outdoor living rooms, and outdoor kitchens.
