Is your home ready for next year? Builders usually know at least six months in advance what the hottest and most popular architectural trends will be. Likewise, retailers can use sales figures to gain insight into what consumers want in terms of upgrades, improvements, and home add-ons. So, there’s really no mystery in predicting what 2023 holds, at least when it comes to decorating, safety, health, and energy efficiency upgrades homeowners will be making.

Besides residential lifts, property owners will be opting for high-quality air purifiers, rooftop and ground-based solar arrays, storage sheds, decks, and all kinds of energy-saving devices. In fact, working adults in all income brackets are already ordering products and services for the year ahead. Here’s a look into the near future that offers more than just a hint about lifestyle trends for homeowners.

Home Lifts

Home lifts have been slowly but surely growing in popularity for the past two decades. Large numbers of modern homeowners want a way of solving future accessibility concerns with products such as lifts, ramps, and staircase handrails. Lifts can be the ideal way for older adults to navigate their way between floors without worrying about the risk of falling. Not only do in-home lifts look great, but they can also make it much easier to sell a home whenever the owner decides to move out. Today’s lifts are sleek, attractive, functional, quiet, 100% safe, and add a large dose of elegance to homes of all ages and sizes.

High-Grade Air Purifiers

As the outdoor air becomes more polluted with each passing year, homeowners everywhere want special hospital grade air purifiers to minimize airborne dust, pollutants, viruses, and impurities of all types and risk levels. Not only can sophisticated purifiers remove COVID-19 viruses, but they’re also capable of getting rid of unwanted odors, second-hand cigarette smoke, multiple varieties of bacteria, and much more. People want the peace of mind that comes with breathing clean air whenever they’re working or relaxing at home.

Solar Arrays

In today’s world stress is a major problem, specifically as it relates to the environment and sustainability. Solar energy is another trend that has taken a while to catch on, but the panels have finally reached a price point where most property owners can afford them. One of the new twists in the latest solar panel technology is that it works just as well on ground-based units as on rooftop versions. Recently, many solar enthusiasts have decided to double up on the number of panels they purchase. Then, they place half on top of their homes and the other half in the backyard to maximize power generation potential.

Sheds and Decks

With home prices in the stratosphere, huge numbers of owners are choosing to remain in the houses they currently own instead of buying new ones. It’s a matter of economic necessity but is also the source of a major trend. The sale of sheds and deck kits has been ramping up for the past year. People are seeking to solve two challenges by buying them. First, they want to increase available storage space for the lowest possible price. Small DIY shed kits get the job done in that department. For backyard comfort, decks are the preferred project, mainly because small ones are easy DIY tasks. But decks are also a low-cost way to enhance outdoor activities year-round.
