One of the greatest benefits of building a new construction home is the luxury of choice. From floor plans to paint colors, a new home provides the ability to finally create the home of your dreams. So, as 2024 begins, it is important to note a few new construction design trends that can elevate your future home. Here is a quick breakdown from the new home builders at Holland Homes, offering new construction throughout Alabama. 

 

Modern Southern Charm

 

Alabama is rich in southern charm, and a new home should reflect that! Incorporating elements of southern culture such as wrap-around porches, gabled roofs, and inviting entryways, provides a nod to tradition while making your new house feel like a home. 

 

Open-Concept Floor Plans

 

While open-concept floor plans are far from new, the seamless transition between kitchen, dining, and living areas has become more and more common across Alabama. New homes with floor plans like this can not only bring a sense of spaciousness to your home but also foster community between your family and guests. 

 

Smart Home Integration Means Home Automation

 

With technology growing every single year, for many new home owners, home automation is no longer a luxury but a necessity. But why? Essentially, integrating smart home features enhances convenience, security, and energy efficiency. From smart thermostats to automated lighting systems, homeowners across Alabama are embracing technology to elevate their living experiences.

 

Neutral Colors with Bold Accents

 

From boring walls to stark spaces, new homes tend to have a certain look to them. That’s where the use of neutral colors with bold accents can transform a stark new house into a cozy and personal home. 

Ultimately, while the end of 2023 and the start of 2024 has seen a rise of accent colors such as deep blues, emerald greens, or rich earth tones, it is important to remember that this is your home. Look at the walls as a way to enhance you and your family’s personality, comfort, and life. 

 

Outdoor Living Spaces

 

Given Alabama’s (typically) pleasant climate, outdoor living spaces have become an integral part of new home construction. Patios, decks, and landscaped gardens extend the living area beyond the confines of the home, creating inviting spaces for relaxation and entertainment.

 

Adaptable Home Offices

 

The rise of remote work has fueled the need for dedicated home office spaces. New home designs in Alabama are adapting to this trend, incorporating multi-functional home offices that seamlessly blend with the overall aesthetic of the house.
