Fall brings cooler weather, seasonal festivities, and new inspiration. As the seasons change, home design trends do too. New trends can offer plenty of ways to refresh your space and explore new styles. Some trends reflect new colors and decor while others focus on function and everyday living. Here are a few different manufactured home trends and seasonal styles to inspire you this fall!
Open Layouts
Open-concept living remains a top trend and sought-after feature for its functionality. Connecting the kitchen, dining area, and living room creates a bright and natural flow for everyday living. As the holiday season approaches, this feature is appreciated so you can host gatherings comfortably and easily connect with family and friends.
Colors & Cozy Textures
This season, homeowners are swapping out the summer colors for a fall feel. Warm, earthy colors are a perfect fit for fall home design. Shades such as cream, terracotta, chocolate brown, olive green, and burgundy can add warmth, character, and comfort to a space without requiring any major design changes.
Texture is also an easy way to add comfort and dimension to a room. Fabrics, including velvet, corduroy, wool, and woven materials, are showing up this fall, often paired with plaid patterns, florals, or stripes. A few ways homeowners are incorporating these colors and textures are by using throw blankets, pillows, area rugs, furniture, and curtains.
Seasonal Decor
Seasonal decorating is an easy way to give your home a fresh fall look. A decorated entryway can create a welcoming first impression with pumpkins, wreaths, mums, doormats, Halloween signs, and hay bales. Whether you decide spooky or sweet, it can add personality and celebrate the change of season.
Inside, a few simple touches such as centerpieces, candles, and fall foliage can make a big difference. Natural decor elements are a fall favorite too. Incorporating wooden accents, dried flowers, and fall plant arrangements can tie the look together. Seasonal decor can offer an opportunity to have fun, get creative, and show off your home!
Lighting
Lighting is an essential element to create a comfortable and functional home. Warm-toned lighting, modern fixtures, and layered lighting are popular choices in current interiors. Homeowners are steering away from harsh overhead lighting and combining ambient lighting with wall sconces and lamps. Incorporating warm, softer lighting can make rooms feel cozier, especially as the days get shorter this fall.
Customization
Homeowners are turning to customization to fit their aesthetic and needs. Manufactured homes offer a variety of customization options, including choices for accessibility, finishes, layouts, fixtures, flooring, and more. These choices allow buyers to add their personal touches and create a home that is uniquely theirs. Some of the top trends include granite countertops, walk-in closets, double vanity master bathrooms, and smart home technology. We recommend consulting with your specific manufacturer or retailer, as available customization options can vary.
Energy Efficiency
Energy efficiency is growing in popularity for manufactured homeowners, especially as we head into cooler months. Homes can be built with energy-efficient features such as appliances, upgraded insulation, and high-efficiency heating and cooling systems. ENERGY STAR-certified appliances and smart home automation are popular among homeowners and worth looking into. These features can overall lower energy use and costs, provide greater comfort, and reduce harmful emissions.
Make Fall Feel Like Home
There is always something new in home design, whether that is seasonal colors or new takes on lighting and features. Fall is a great time to bring a few new touches to your home, plan a future project, or, if you’re buying a manufactured home, draw inspiration from these trends as you begin the home-buying process.
