Surprising Home Trends of <strong>2016</strong><br />
I tend to be cautious when<br />
speaking of home trends. Often,<br />
the word “trend” scares people<br />
as they automatically believe<br />
a “trend” is something that is<br />
going to go out of style in a<br />
short amount of time. While<br />
this is often true, there are some<br />
trends that have longevity, and<br />
from a design standpoint, they<br />
are important to acknowledge.<br />
Inspired from Elle Décor’s article<br />
by Bridget Mallon, here are some<br />
trends from <strong>2016</strong> so far that have<br />
the potential to stick around for<br />
a while:<br />
Slate/Black Stainless<br />
Steel Appliances: Although<br />
stainless steel is still king in the<br />
appliance finish world, there is<br />
a new finish available and ready<br />
to take on the market. Black<br />
saute & GRill<br />
RestauRant<br />
stainless steel or slate appliances<br />
offer an interesting alternative to<br />
the shine and fingerprint-prone<br />
stainless steel. It has been described<br />
as being a warmer alternative<br />
to traditional stainless and<br />
works well in sleek contemporary<br />
kitchens. Stainless steel appliances<br />
will not be fading away any<br />
time soon, but if you are looking<br />
for a unique and smudge proof<br />
option, a black stainless appliance<br />
suite may be the way to go!<br />
Matte Finishes: Along<br />
the same vein as black stainless<br />
steel, we are noticing an overall<br />
trend in less shiny materials.<br />
Matte black cabinet hardware,<br />
oxidized zinc table tops, and iron<br />
light fixtures, among other accessories<br />
are all the rage right now.<br />
“The simplicity of the surface<br />
allows the color<br />
and design to be<br />
the focus rather<br />
than the texture<br />
of your materials,”<br />
says Shannon<br />
Malone of<br />
Fireclay Tile.<br />
Even the evertimeless<br />

white subway tile can get a little<br />
style boost when it is in a matte<br />
finish. That being said, don’t feel<br />
you have to get rid of all things<br />
shiny—polished finishes are not<br />
going out of style, but consider<br />
mixing a shiny finish with a matte<br />
finish for a stunning contrast.<br />
Mixed Materials in Kitchens:<br />
Looking for a great way to<br />
mix polished and matte finishes?<br />
How about in the kitchen! A<br />
big kitchen trend of this year<br />
has been mixing materials, often<br />

According to a survey by Masterbrand<br />
Cabinets, the most popular<br />
kitchen styles these days are<br />
“modern farmhouse” and “rustic<br />
industrial.” Both of these styles<br />
are almost oxymorons in name<br />
and lend themselves to a wide<br />
variety of materials and finishes<br />
for an eclectic and personalized<br />
space. Check out this kitchen I<br />
designed as an example that has<br />
rustic hand-scraped wood floors,<br />
sleek man-made quartz countertops,<br />
traditional subway tile in a<br />
non-traditional color, and a pop<br />
of animal print.<br />
Mismatched Cabinets:<br />
Another way to achieve the<br />
mixed materials look in a kitchen<br />
is to bring in a bold accent color<br />
or texture in cabinetry. An allwhite<br />
kitchen is timeless, but how<br />
about a white kitchen with a navy<br />
blue island? Or, if you are really<br />
brave (and have a large kitchen),<br />
take 3 or 4 colors that work well<br />
together and combine them in<br />
to one cohesive space, like this<br />
kitchen below from Diamond<br />
Cabinetry. By keeping sleek lines<br />
and neutrals elsewhere in the<br />
space, the bold color choices are<br />
able to make a statement without<br />
being egregious or overtly trendy.<br />
Bottom line: no one knows<br />
how long a trend is going to last<br />
for, but elements of the above<br />
<strong>2016</strong> trends, like adding a matte<br />
gold table lamp in your living<br />
room or incorporating a rustic<br />
wood shelf in your kitchen, can<br />
easily be combined into classic<br />
designs to create a unique and<br />
progressive space that is all your<br />
own.<br />
