5 Design Trends To Get Inspired By From The Fall Parade of Homes

Changing seasons means changing styles. While your fashion trends evolve and change, so should the design themes in your home! While on our tour of the Fall Parade of Homes, we were left so inspired by the many gorgeous homes we stepped foot in (while wearing our booties, of course).

While each home had it’s own unique layout, craftsmanship and style, there were a few key trends we began to notice throughout the tour. Which ones speak to you?

*Per parade etiquette, we refrained from taking photos on our tour. But we found similar images online that are just as inspirational.

1. Mixed Metals

Intentional mixing of metals is all the rage – accomplish this by mixing gold light fixtures with chrome accents or matte black hardware.

2. Light wood floors

Dark wood floors are still stylish, but lighter, blonder tones are making a serious comeback.

3. Black accents

Black hardware, cabinets, counter tops, doors, windows... the opportunities are endless with this bold yet neutral color option.

4. Gold lighting

This is not your mom’s old brass. Gold light fixtures, especially in mid century modern designs, could be found in some of the coolest parade homes.

5. Vaulted Ceilings

Vaulted ceilings make a serious statement by making a room feel much more grand and spacious. We especially love them in master bedrooms like the one above.
