Latest Luxury Custom Home Design Trends

Before you make any changes to your space, it’s important to establish what design you’d like in your home. Are you looking for a minimalist and modern look? Or do you prefer a rich and maximalist experience? No matter what style you choose, this will dictate the kind of accent pieces and furnishings your space will need to reflect your design inspiration. 

Remember to choose pieces that will be in style for a while. Creating a luxurious space requires investing in quality and durable materials. So it’s important to create a budget that reflects the kind of investment you are going to need to make to achieve your desired look. Don’t forget there are lots of great places where you can get high-end and luxury furnishings at a great price such as antique stores and auctions. Take the time to do your research so you can fill your space with pieces and design elements that will match your vision exactly.

It can often be difficult to discern where the focal point begins in a large space. That is why it’s important to create clearly defined areas, including a focal point in the room. This can be achieved by choosing an area as the central feature of your room and then building the rest of your space around that. A fireplace is an excellent focal point. It becomes a space where you can build a sitting area around as well as use the mantle above to place collections or pieces of art. Once this space is defined, then guests and family will immediately know what area of the room to gather for conversation and reconnecting. 

A focal point in each room is also a great way to create an impact as people move through your home. A fine art piece, fireplace or unique architectural design element can draw the eye and control the flow of your space.

The grandest homes pay close attention to detail. This means choosing hardware and fixtures that seamlessly flow throughout the home. This can be achieved by choosing a theme such as brushed metal, stainless steel, or gold. From there, build your design plan featuring elements of this throughout your home. If you choose brushed metal for your kitchen fixtures, then match this with the draw pulls, door handles, and other hardware.

Carry this look through your entire home, into the bathroom where you can also have brushed metal fixtures and hardware. Your contractor will be able to help you find the right signature detail that you can build throughout your home to ‘brand’ your home space and give it a feeling of continuity.

We mentioned how important it is to have different textures in your space, but do you know how to properly layer them to achieve a rich luxury interior? Start with a base like a modern simple sofa in a neutral colour. Next, add pillows of different materials and structures. Use the colours in your room to choose the colours of the pillows. For example, if you have a painting on the wall that has yellow and blue highlights, then choose pillows that incorporate various of these colours. Next, add a throw that might also include these colours or a colour from another piece of artwork or furniture. 

These simple additions of texture and colour have allowed you to build up the level of comfort and plushness of your room, making it more inviting and relaxing. Remember, these layers can be achieved in countless ways. You may have a side table next to your couch. Layers can be created here by placing a couple of books on their side and then placing a glass paperweight or metal accent piece on or near the books. You are not only creating layers with the material but also levels of dimension too creating the illusion of space.

Interior lighting is one of the best ways to create a luxurious home interior. Choose lighting options that reflect the design you want to achieve in each room. For example, a dining room can be enhanced with an industrial-style chandelier that allows you to raise or dim the lighting depending on the ambience you want to create. In your kitchen you want bright, modern lighting making recessed or pot lights a great and functional choice.

In the bathroom, you will want lighting options that allow you to have brightness when you get ready and low light when you want to soak in the tub. Remember to consider customizable lighting options that let you highlight specific areas. This might include lighting that is positioned to showcase a piece of art or sculpture.

Similar to statement art, high-end furniture can be a quick way to enhance a luxury interior design. Make sure to select pieces that will last a long time. This means high-quality, well-made investment pieces. Choose luxury materials that will create a feeling of warmth and comfort in your home. Carefully source your furniture to ensure you are getting value for money.

You should be able to identify the maker and source the materials whenever possible. Consider custom pieces whenever possible. This will allow you to create furniture that is truly meant for your home. A great place to start is with custom dining tables, custom sofas, and even a custom bed. This allows you to create a piece that reflects your lifestyle and design preferences. It also lets you create uniformity in style and design throughout your home.
