As you start your search for Atlanta metro new homes, turn to Piedmont Residential to help you find the perfect home. While you’re looking, take some time to explore the latest design trends, as a new home is the ideal time to update your furnishings and style. These are some of the recent design trends that are expected to continue through 2026.

Color continues to be a key design element. Gone are the stark white and the cold gray. Instead warm, earthy colors, and darker, bolder colors continue to fill homes, adding comfort and visual interest. Even if you prefer the neutrality of white walls, consider warmer off white and cream colors, complemented by bolder accents.

Color drenching has been one of the biggest decor breakouts this past year and is likely to carry through into the new year. This is where you choose one color and use it throughout an entire room from baseboards to ceiling. It creates a bold statement, yet depending on the color you choose, it doesn’t have to be overwhelming. A soft, creamy orange adds warmth, while still keeping the space bright and cheery. Though for bedrooms where you may want a darker, cozier place to drift off to sleep, bolder, darker colors like navy or olive can make an impressive impact.

Another design element that is growing is the idea of longevity and sustainability. This translates into furnishings and decorations that are built to last, while still offering comfort and style. This livable luxury combines timeless pieces – classic sofas, craftsman wood tables – with vintage or unique pieces – lamps, artwork – that show your personality, rather than the same signs and decorations that everyone has. The use of performance fabrics that can stand the test of time and daily life, along with reusing vintage or antiques, aids in sustainability while creating a unique-to-you setting.

Maximalism has slowly been gaining ground on minimalism and this will continue. Even if you prefer less clutter, there are ways to incorporate maximalism. Wallpaper is making a comeback, letting you use it as a bold accent wall, or with an updated pattern that complements the whole room, or just choosing a textured neutral that adds visual interest without becoming a focus. In addition, drapes and colorfully patterned rugs add layers to your decor. Wooden frames with carved details, more table lamps, and potted plants are all ways to add to the warmth and soul of your home without becoming overwhelming.

Warmth and comfort are perhaps the key points to keep in mind when updating the decor in your Atlanta metro new homes this coming year. To help you find the perfect home to serve as the foundation for your updated style, reach out and contact us today for an excellent selection of welcoming homes.
