01 Personalized Kitchen Design
As a space we spend a significant amount of time in, let it really showcase your personality and make functionality convenient.
To design kitchens as more distinctive personalized spaces, consider incorporating unique elements that reflect your personality and preferences. This can be achieved through the use of custom cabinetry, statement lighting fixtures, unique tile or backsplash designs, and personalized decor. Additionally, incorporating functional and practical elements such as storage solutions and efficient appliances can also enhance the overall design and functionality of the space.

Your bathroom can become a personal sanctuary and is worthy of an upgrade. The bathroom as a personal spa is a growing trend.
Experts are seeing nature-inspired designs to bring the outdoors inside. Elements of this design trend include textures like natural stone and wood, as well as shades of green.
Another trend is to add a pop of color to personalize the space to your personality and style. Color can be added through accessories, a colored tile, or even your cabinets.

03 Indoor-Outdoor Space Flow
A seamless flow between the indoors and outdoors is very on-trend. Creatively utilizing previously disjointed spaces to connect and be hospitable has become a priority since the pandemic.
Adding large-scale windows and replacing single doors with double doors helps optimize the view and lets in more natural light.
Creating large openings with retractable screen doors that open to large patio or deck spaces allows indoor space overflow while keeping a connection to the outdoors. It also provides a practical purpose to limit some of the more pesky residents of the outdoors, like leaves and bugs.
Ideas
- Consider a covered outdoor space to protect you from the elements.

Brown tones are in for 2023. We've seen the cooler gray tones starting to fade a bit to embrace the warmer, more inviting amber hues.
Paired with modern and fresh white, beiges, terracotta, or greens, it can add dimension and balance.
Incorporating warm tones can be as easy as adding deep wood tone or leather furniture, or an accent wall - either with paint or a wallcovering.
