Let’s delve into the possibilities and explore some popular trends that could suit your home in Eastbourne and the nearby areas. You can also look through our gallery for more.

Popular Home Trends

If your domestic building work project involves home extensions, property renovation, cladding installations, or loft conversions, you'll also be considering style and colour scheme. Whether you are intent on designing your forever home or looking to increase the value of your property in Eastbourne, style matters. Here are some of our favourite trends to get you inspired:

Mediterranean-Inspired

Want to feel summery and holiday-ready all year round? This trend is characterised by natural materials, terracotta pots, white walls and splashes of azure blue, and an alfresco-style dining area.

Hygge

Pronounced “hoo-gah,” hygge is a popular Scandinavian style that revolves around an appreciation for the wintery, slower pace of life indoors, where it is cosy, comforting and calm. Picture neutral textiles and warm colour schemes, wicker and houseplants, blazing log fires and bar stools for social gatherings.

Biophilic

A trend focused on reconnecting us to nature. The concept revolves around plenty of natural light, vegetation, and easy accessibility to the outside. It’s no wonder this trend gained such popularity since the pandemic! Think skylights, broad windows, and glass doors. The term ‘biophilic’ descends from ancient Greek, generally translating to mean a ‘love of nature’ or ‘love of life’ in English.

Cantilever

This structurally innovative trend is characterised by gravity-defying architectural details using one-sided, projecting beams to support and elevate surfaces, walls and more. We are talking spiral staircases, overhanging rooms, intersecting, vertical roofs, and platforms that seem suspended without supporting pillars. These fascinating, modern designs can establish showstopping features in your home.

Remember, these trends can be personalised to suit your unique vision and requirements and to fit any project, from a side-return extension to a renovation, including new structural openings.
