Spring 2021 Home Design Trends
November 18, 2021
There’s no better time than spring to give your home a fresh look. As you look forward to warmth and renewal this season, think about the areas of your home that you’d like to spruce up a little (or a lot)! From two-tone kitchen cabinets to the Pantone colors of the year, there are so many fun trends to try out in your favorite spaces. Take a look at a few of our top home design trends for spring 2021:
TWO-TONE CABINETS
When it comes to your kitchen cabinetry, two is better than one! We love the eye-catching look of upper and lower cabinets in two different colors, and the best part is that you have a variety of unique combinations to try. Whether you enjoy soft, light colors like white and powder blue, or a “farmhouse chic” look with black and gold, you’re bound to find the perfect color scheme to reflect your style.
STATEMENT HEADBOARDS
Nothing says “relaxation” quite like a beautifully designed bedroom. And nothing completes a well-rounded look than a statement headboard for the bed. This spring, it’s all about vibrant, lively headboards that become a focal point in the room. From tufted and nailhead styles to geometric patterns and bright colors, the options are endless. Plus, you can paint an accent wall behind it to complement the look!
HOUSE PLANTS
If you love the calming, natural aura of house plants, situate them throughout your favorite spaces, like your kitchen, bedroom, great room, and deck. This is an easy way to spruce up your home without having to make a big adjustment. Try herbs, peace lilies, English ivy, pothos, Chinese evergreens, and more to brighten up your rooms. You can also add pops of color and personality with unique planters.
COTTAGECORE
This emerging trend is a nod to English countryside living and embraces a simpler, more sustainable existence that’s in harmony with nature. For your home, think of dried flowers in decorative vases, delicate china displayed on shelves, a rough-hewn bookcase, hand-crocheted hanging baskets, and lots of houseplants to bring the outdoors in. It’s a fresh, comfortable aesthetic that encourages you to slow down and appreciate the small things.
ULTIMATE GRAY AND ILLUMINATING (YELLOW)
Every year, Pantone announces a “color of the year” that embodies a unique message. For 2021, they chose Pantone 17-5104 Ultimate Gray and Pantone 13-0647 Illuminating (yellow), two uplifting colors that convey strength and hopefulness. These soft, modern hues work beautifully together (and apart) in any space — try using them as wall colors, in furniture accessories, throughout table displays, and more. These yearly colors provide endless opportunities to give your home the fresh, contemporary vibe you’re looking for.
From all of us at Hubbell Homes, we hope you have a fun time sprucing up your home this spring!

The whole process from purchase to construction was very smooth. Everyone was helpful. If there were any problems, they were taken care of right away and all my questions were answered. Superintendent Greg was great to work with. I really like the layout of my house.
