6 Summer Trends for 2022

Wondering what will be trending in home design this summer? Here are 6 trends we are predicting for 2022.

With no major holidays (other than the 4th of July), decorating and designing for the summer season can make you feel a bit clueless. However, these design trends are heating up the summer while keeping a soft touch.

Read on for 6 of the top summer trends we are eying this summer.

Greenery & Botanicals

Whether indoors or outdoors, greenery and botanical prints are keeping things lively. Afloral and Hobby Lobby are my favorite places to get high-quality faux flowers, and I walk you through my step for low-cost botanical prints in my blog post How To Get Free Art For Your Home (Plus, My Favorite Places To Find It!)

Shades of Green

Inspired by greenery and botanicals, shades of green on everything from garages to kitchen cabinets aren't going anywhere. I love how green is used in this primary suite. Additionally, this kitchen cabinet redo is made more magical with a beautiful shade of green.

Warm-Toned Kitchens and Cabinets

Speaking of kitchens and cabinets, warm-tones are having a moment. April's Color Of the Month at Sherwin-Williams was Carnelian -- and it is GORGEOUS. It pairs perfectly with other muted tones and I have a feeling it will last long after spring and into the warm months of summer.

Light-Colored Floors

Bring in the light beyond the sunshine -- add light-colored flooring to make a room feel more expansive. With deeper colors like green and maroon trending in cabinets, working with lighter flooring adds a great balance.

I love the look of this house remodel with the light oak flooring. You can achieve this look with light oak laminate.

Natural, Sustainable, Vintage or Reclaimed Materials

Vintage items are by nature sustainable. We go antique shopping about once a quarter to score some unique home décor! It is so fun to find something with a story.

Joanna Gaines does such a good job with this and I love seeing what she finds in vintage shops for her clients (her own farmhouse is probably the best example of unique vintage finds with character). Also, Shea McGee makes homes look higher end with reclaimed wood pieces which can add such warmth to a space -- I love the beam she used in the McGee master bathroom.

Plaster

I love the texture that plaster can give to a wall, even in white. A special technique called Roman Clay has been taking the internet by storm lately. Especially for industrial style spaces, it can create an "exposed" surface look.

Check out how one DIYer used this style in this blog post.
