The modern house-buyer is increasingly environmentally aware and socially conscious. When viewing properties, top of their list is energy-efficiency. For instance, is the house insulated so less energy is required to heat and cool it down?  

Make sure your home sustainable by applying the reuse-reduce-recycle approach. For example:  

Reuse — reuse reclaimed building materials from other projects rather than purchasing new ones such as salvaged wood flooring. 

Reduce — buy locally manufactured items or handcrafted artisan products like natural fabrics

Recycle — use renewable materials, or products with high recycled content as these have a lower environmental impact such as bamboo or cork wall paneling. 

Hybrid homes 

As our work and home life continue to collide, where we live needs to provide a counterpoint to ease our hectic lifestyles. As more people choose to work from home, the popularly of open plan living is a deal breaker for many people. Buyers want to have an integrated space where they can work, socialize, spend time with family, cook and even exercise.  If you have ideas on what the hottest home design trends in 2020 are, please let us know in the comment section.
