I was chatting with my wife, and she brought up an interesting point: what's next in home design? Right now, it feels like we're stuck in that Fixer-Upper-inspired modern farmhouse vibe, with lots of painted white brick and gray tones. Surely, that can't be the end of it? I've noticed cars moving back to 1970s earth-tones instead of the typical greys and silvers. Is home design shifting in a similar direction?

Honestly, the best advice is to just do what you love and not get too caught up in trends. Your home should reflect your style, or it might feel dated every few years. What's the point of that? Live your way!
I've been seeing a lot of warm tones and shades of sage green around here. Earthy browns and rustic reds are also making a comeback. It's like a mix of vintage vibes with a modern twist, at least in my neighborhood.
It really depends on what you want to do with your home. If you're thinking about selling in the next few years, then sure, consider those retro warm colors. But for a long-term home, focus on what makes you happy. Think timeless designs—warm neutrals are trending now that everyone is over grey. Build a solid base and add in personal touches that can change whenever you feel like it. Also, remember that the interior should harmonize with the exterior design. It creates a more cohesive look.
