Fantastically Fresh Architectural Trends for 2013

Home Trends
By New Homes Guide February 7

Cookie-cutter is out, and unique is back in a very big way! Keep a lookout for these fresh new architectural styles in and around DC in 2013:

  1. The Hybrid:

    Old and new are coming together like never before—in 2013, you’ll see modern architectural elements like skylights and strong lines fused seamlessly with classical designs.
  2. The Environmentalist:
    Expect to see several new innovations in green building materials this year.  Concrete, new composites, even cardboard will be seen in construction ranging from personal homes to large commercial buildings.
  3. The Artist:
    We’re seeing a renewed interest in the Arts and Crafts movement. Homes coupling bungalow charm with fresh, new artisanal touches will be popping up throughout the DC metro region.

What’s your architectural personality? Take this fun quiz from the folks at HGTV.
