We’re halfway through the decade, and new home construction trends have already come a long way. Homeowners are making dramatic shifts in the layout and design of their homes compared to even a few years ago. Plus, certain features have become all the rage as homes enter a more modern era. Here’s a quick roundup of the most popular trends we saw in 2025, and a sneak peek and what we think 2026 will bring for new construction homes in Los Angeles. 

Eco-friendly and Textured Materials

Sustainability was a key theme throughout the year in new construction homes, especially in LA. Reclaimed wood and stone as well as raw concrete helped homeowners achieve an organic, earthy feel for their homes.  Similarly, material drenching was a favorite way to create one cohesive look through homes. The term is used for homes that feature one material throughout an entire space, such as plaster or linen. The focus is on the texture, as homes become more tactile and centered on the physical realm. 

Multi-use Spaces

Ever since the early 2020s, it seems like more people have been asking more out of their homes. Now, multifunctional spaces are filling the need for dual-purpose rooms. Offices that seamlessly transform into home gyms and living rooms that house an entertainment suite are just a few examples of homes becoming more efficient and functional.  One of the more practical ways homeowners are making this happen in new construction homes is by incorporating built-in storage solutions. Murphy beds that tuck in neatly to the walls and hidden drawers and desks that conveniently pull out when you need them are easy wins for creating multi-functional spaces. 

Curved Architecture and Rounded Furniture

Sterile, straight lines were cast aside in 2025 for more form-fitting designs. Circular tables and arched alcoves are in vogue as homeowners seek to make their spaces more welcoming and whimsical.  Custom-made features like flexible drywall and specially-crafted arches are helping spaces feel more dynamic and human like. This home design trend flows from the overall “soft living” trend we saw play out on social media and beyond in 2025.

2025 is Moving Out, Welcome Home 2026

It’s hard to believe, but the new year is just around the corner.  What 2026 will bring is anyone’s guess, but we think you’ll be seeing a lot more biophilic design, tech integration, and closed floor plans.
