When you are staging a home, it's important to keep up to date with the latest architectural and decor trends. This helps you create an aesthetically pleasing home that appeals to buyers. 

Here are some of the top home staging trends you'll see more of in 2021. 

1. Focus on Bold Hues 

Bold is beautiful. While white and neutral paint colors have been trending for a while, we expect bold hues to make a comeback in 2021.

If you want to deliver a statement and create an eye-catching look when staging a home, try painting just one wall with a bold paint color. For a more fluid appearance, paint an entire room in a bold hue. No matter which option you choose, bold colors add plenty of personality and style to a space. 

2. Stage a Home Office

2020 brought many changes because of the COVID-19 pandemic — one of the biggest is working from home. With so many more people working from home, it's important to showcase a home office when staging. 

Whether there is a space designed for an office or you make one out of a spare bedroom, creating a visually appealing, cozy design can help sell a home. 

3. Use Plenty of Plants 

Plants help freshen up any room while bringing more life and energy to a space, and they are really trendy right now. From helping boost your mood to bringing the outdoors in — even during the winter months — plants can add the perfect finishing touch to any room.

A wide variety of plants can grow and flourish indoors, even if you don't have much of a green thumb. There are also plenty of pot options to complement the home's overall style.

4. Install Minimalist Hardware

Minimalist designs have become more popular in the kitchen and this trend will continue. This means 2021 could bring even more "hidden hardware" styles such as edge-style cabinet pulls, integrated handles and push-style latches.

Incorporating these clean lines will create a sleek kitchen style that will appeal to many homebuyers.

5. Showcase Your Staged Homes Online 

During 2020, real estate sales relied on online traffic during stay-at-home orders. This is a trend that we can expect to continue throughout 2021. Showcasing staged homes online offers several benefits. Along with the ability to stage an entire home for a fraction of the cost, online listings allow buyers to engage and visualize the space at any time and from any location.
