Whether you live in your forever home or plan to sell in the near future, creating the best curb appeal is always in your best interest. Covered porches, front and back porticos, carports, and more, all deserve to look unique and show your personal design style. Most importantly, adding a unique touch to these outdoor areas increases the value of your home.
If you’ve been considering upping your game, here are six 2023 exterior design trends that could deliver just what you need. Plus, any one of these projects will be sure to have your neighbors talking.
Exterior Home Design Trends
#1 – Dark and Earthy Siding Colors
Want an instant impact? Choose dark and earthy colors for your siding. Think navy blue, forest green, dark brown, or maroon.
#2 – Black & White Color Palettes
Warm whites and painted bricks continue to be popular in 2023. You can even mix lower-cost siding with brick to keep your budget in check. Another option is incorporating various shades of black as accents, versus as the main color. Charcoal, onyx, and ebony are great shades to consider for door and/or window trim, porch banisters, or soffits. Partner these accents with brown or white colors and you have true curb appeal.
#3 – Extra Texture
Imagine integrating visual texture into your home’s façade including architectural shingles or metal roofing, fascia, and, of course, siding. The 2023 trend is bronze and copper for roofs, gutters, and downspouts. Light colors convey textured depth and detail the best. Shake shingles and shiplap are just two examples of instant curb appeal.
#4 – Accent Colors
Another hot trend is staying within the same color family for accent hues. Light grey siding with dark grey trim gives you a smart look as does light brown siding with dark brown trim.
#5 – Color Blocking
If you are a fan of dark colors and want a refresh without a complete makeover, add a few dark elements to your exterior versus committing to a completely dark scheme. If your home is white, add dark colors via stone or brick accents.
