Primary Suite Design Trends You’ve Got to Check Out

Primary bedrooms are a calming space in your home. It’s where you spend most of your time, especially when you want to relax. You can let your style run free here, independent from the aesthetics of the rest of your home. Or you can think of your primary suite as your personal spa, a place for relaxation and comfort. Summit's Home Squared floor plan even has a second primary suite for mother-in-law visits, roommates, friends, family, etc. giving you two main rooms to design and make your own. No matter what you want to do, here are some new design trends you’ll definitely want to try out.

Enhancing Your Bedroom Aesthetics from Above

Just a few years ago, accent walls were the hottest trend. You may even have one in your home right now. Accent walls let you add a pop of color or texture to an otherwise uniform room. But as with all trends, it’s started to fade in popularity, even prompting some designers to ask if the accent wall is dead!

There’s a new trend in town – and all you need to do is look up. Decorative ceilings are all the rage this year. You’ve got a lot of options with this: colorful paint, decorative ceiling tiles, architectural elements, faux beams or tray ceiling give the illusion of depth. Think of it as your primary bedroom getting a fifth wall.

Organizing Your Primary Closet Like A Pro

You finally got that walk-in closet of your dreams. It has space for everything you need. The only problem? These spaces can quickly descend into chaos. That’s why today, closet organization has almost become an art form. It’s inspired countless trends in minimalism shelving design, seasonal outfit sorting, and more. What are the latest organization trends?

• Adding closet drawers to tame the clutter and keep things out of sight
• Double-up closet rods for twice the hanging space
• Optimizing closet nooks and corners with shelves
• Building shoe racks at the bottom of your closet (you’re not using that space anyway!)

Turning Your Primary Bathroom into a Relaxing Spa

Every primary bathroom needs a place to shower or bathe. Whether you’re a quick-shower-after-a-morning-run type of person or an after-work-bath-with-red-wine relaxer, you need something that fits both your lifestyle and your bedroom’s aesthetic. Do you want a walk-in shower? A stand-alone bathtub? Some people would rather have a larger shower, while others want a tub-shower combo.

But have you ever considered both? More and more people are adding both a walk-in shower and a soaking tub to complete their primary suite. If you have the space for it, this option gives you the best of both worlds. As a bonus, a standing shower and soaking tub give your primary bathroom a wonderful spa-like quality.

Finding Your Style

Pick a headboard that allows your bed to be the focal point of the room. Don't be afraid to go big and bold. One of the latest trends is tall statement beds with tufted or grooved detailing. A Boho Chic color palette/design is another popular trend to add to your décor. 

Add color and character to your space with unique pieces of art and furniture. Keep your space light and bright with bamboo or wicker accent chairs and various plants to add that pop of green. 

Take the time to perfect your primary oasis. After all, it’s a place just for you to enjoy!
