2014 Trends –
Individualized interiors/personalization – meaning that most consumers want their home to not only look great but to reflect memories, family, and tradition. In terms of color: pantone’s radiant orchid was selected as a color of the year. Shades of gray make for great complementary color combinations of this soft color family. Turquoise is seen more in design publications and showroom – the culmination of blues and greens are popular.
Summer:
The line between inside and outside spaces blurs more and more as fabrics become water resistant and weather-proof providing many more color and pattern options.  Shades for sunlights can be great for energy efficiency, keeping spaces naturally cooler, preventing fading from fabrics and reducing glares.
Our advice is to mix accents with trends that you like to update a look. This can be done through accessories such as decorative pillows, throws, fabrics, artwork, etc. The key is to retain your own personal style and a room that you love while adding small accents that create a unified look and bring an updated feel.

 

Adding value to homes on the market:
A new coat of paint in a modern neutral palette is an inexpensive way to give a clean look so that buyers can envision their own ideas in the space. Most buyers change colors and decor to their own preferences, so making design improvements that emphasize the best features of the space add the most value.
