Top 5 Trends for the Home in 2023

At this years Seattle Home & Garden Show, the top trends for the home will be on display giving showgoers the opportunity to spruce up their current homes with bold, modern colors and textiles for the kitchen, adding a tiny home addition as a secondary residence or rental unit, to installing an alternative energy source solution such as a complete offgrid solar system for extreme weather conditions.

Here are the top 5 trends for the home in 2023 to look for when visiting the show:

● Multigenerational living. With the high cost of housing combined with high interest rates, Northwesterners increasingly are turning towards multigenerational living, whether it is grown children moving back with their parents or aging parents moving in with their grown children.

● Aging in place. Includes creating living space for caretakers in the home as well as adding features to make the home more accessible, including a universal design tub to shower conversion that improves bathing safety without demolishing the old tub.

● Tiny homes for affordable housing, whether they are primary residences, additions to an existing property or houses for recreational property.

● Alternative energy, from a complete offgrid solar system to solutions for extreme weather conditions. Includes whole house fan systems that both cool the home’s inside temperature faster than air conditioning and purify the air at the same time from allergens and pathogens such as COVID, as well as cool room concepts for unique ways to weatherize your home for heat domes and other weather extremes.

● Staying in place, including remodeling rather than moving.
