Design Trends
We place a large focus on home remodeling at Boardwalk Builders, transforming existing homes, and bringing our clients visions to life. With the new year upon us it is a time for new beginnings and new trends!
Kitchens are often the heart of our homes, and the average person spends several hours a week preparing meals and eating in their home kitchen. Pre-COVID the kitchen at my house was always the most popular spot for guests to gather around to snack, chat, and socialize. Post COVID, my kitchen island serves as a classroom, cafeteria, art room, and all-around command center for our family. Let’s be honest, hardworking kitchens are FILLED with stuff. Gadgets, food items, and single use appliances combined with increased kitchen usage can create a real storage shortage. If you are like me- a person who despises clutter, you will love the 2021 design trend of wall-to-wall cabinets! Practical and stylish, wall to wall design offers additional storage, creating a clean and calming overall kitchen esthetic.

While functionality is key, esthetic is equally important. Visually the eye is drawn to the backsplash in your kitchen as soon as you enter the space. Porcelain and ceramic tile options continue to be mainstay in kitchen design, but slab backsplash is in for 2021. Using a continuous slab of natural stone to match the counter tops is a luxurious and contemporary design.

The Kitchen might be your preferred area of the home, but the bathroom is likely the most vital. We start the day in the bathroom, so beyond being a practical space in your home it sets the tone for the day ahead. In the evening it is an area to decompress and ready yourself for rest. As a result of the hectic past year in 2021 the trend toward spa style baths comes as no surprise. Combine a contemporary walk-in shower, a deep soaking tub, an aromatherapy candle, and your home bath can be the perfect space to unwind and relax.
This custom bathroom truly has it all. Minimalist vibe with a large soaking tub and gorgeous glass shower is a perfect room for our clients to relax and unwind.
After a year that forced most of us to spend more time in our homes, many of us are looking for ways to make our more homes comfortable and efficient. Kitchen and Bathroom renovations have always been popular projects- and 2021 will be no exception.
