How Should You Build Your Luxury Home?

  • Written by Marife Boiser


A luxury home is more than just the premium tiles and hardwood floors. It's a space that represents your personality by combining tasteful trends and an ounce of your style.

Gone are the days when dark hardwood floors are the epitome of luxury homes. Also, granite kitchen tiles are no longer a luxurious kitchen make.

So how should you build your luxury home? Let's see the trends that you can incorporate to make your home look lush and lavish.


Home Trends


Open spaces and clean lines

Open floor plans offer an excellent view of your home interiors. It's clean, crisp, has lots of natural sunlight that makes the space larger. Open spaces are also more inviting and accommodating. The omission of interior walls makes it more conducive for entertaining a large number of guests.


A statement piece

Monochromatic homes were so last season. A focal point can make a huge statement. You can still maintain that crisp white interior and add more character by adding a staircase of a different texture and contrasting colours.


A garden for a comfortable nook

Gardens and patios used to be uncharted areas when it comes to interior designing. It has always been confined to a storage space or an area where you can let your dog get his daily dose of sunshine. But not any more. Outdoor areas can be a luxurious haven where you can lounge by and read your favourite novel. It can also be a comfortable nook where you can enjoy a glass of margarita with your friends.


Focus in the kitchen

The kitchen is now perceived as an additional space to entertain guests. So, over the years, it has undergone a lot of upgrades. Granite tiles and stainless-steel appliances are popular. But now, new materials and pieces are slowly gaining more attention in the kitchen scene. Glass appliances are making waves and can make your kitchen look more luxurious and worthy of entertaining guests.


Luxury home styles


Art deco

Think of the sea, sand, and Miami beach. You don't need to live near the beach to live in an Art Deco-styled home. This home-style makes use of tropical pastels, flat roof, and a bold exterior.


Contemporary

Contemporary modern style homes extend your living space to the outdoors. This style often has a uniquely crafted garden that almost seems like an additional room. It often makes use of sustainable materials and most are solar-powered too.


Mediterranean

These are hacienda themed homes with red styled roofs and arches. Among the prominent features of this Mediterranean style are colourful tiles, heavy wooden doors, intricate ornaments, and balconies.


Prairie

The Prairie style boasts of open floor plans, flat roofs, and windows, and built-in furniture. It's a realistic and modest style that helps you cover all your needs.


Townhouse

Limited space led to the development of row houses. As it places particular attention on the builder's design, it often features a traditional layout and a small backyard. These houses are stacked together, and each unit features a cohesive design and architecture.


Tudor

This English style home is one of the most notable luxury styles. It features steeply pitched forks and multi-gabled roofs. These homes also feature masonry chimneys and lots of wooden framed windows. It's a favourable architecture during snowy weather conditions. Also, it's one of the more expensive architectural designs.


Victorian

Victorian homes are perhaps one of the most complex and intricately designed architectures. Victorian properties also give more focus on the lavish design and ornaments than function and practicality. These homes usually have large porches and bright-coloured interiors.


Oriental

These homes feature Chinese architecture with elaborate landscapes and the curved roof that extends beyond the exteriors of the walls. It often exudes a more calming and homier vibe.


Wrapping up

These modern trends and luxurious home styles can make your real estate property look lusher and more expensive. And, when you incorporate a focal point or a statement piece, it becomes your own.
