A Designer's Take on 2020 Exterior StylesNext, we're checking in with Liz Marie Galvan, blogger, author and owner of The Found Cottage^™. Having recently partnered with Galvan to design and construct an office shed using LP SmartSide products, we sat down to uncover the latest trends in home style and more.

• Rustic, modern aesthetic on the rise – Of all the 2020 trends, Galvan says, “It's all about simple, organic earthy textures for creating a modern aesthetic. Try adding rustic wood-like textures in the accessories, marble pieces, stone accents and clean-line metal pieces for an updated look.” Having recently used LP SmartSide products on her detached office, Galvan says the sleek, clean look of engineered wood siding versus other siding materials she's seen is the perfect backdrop to add these types of accents for one-of-a-kind curb appeal.

• Winning siding and accent combinations – Once the new siding trends are incorporated into the home's exterior, incorporate popular siding colors to complete the look. Galvan says to consider accentuating the beauty of your siding texture and color with details like outdoor lights, front door handles and house numbers. The combination of siding and exterior “accessories” can combine a chic rustic and modern aesthetic for added curb appeal that “pops and is a massive trend right now,” says Galvan.

• Timeless exterior details – Galvan is noticing homeowners are paying more attention to choosing siding that preserves a traditional look but appeals to modern taste—an aesthetic that LP SmartSide products are known for achieving. “People are asking their builders to bring back those historic charm items like architectural details in peaks and custom corbels around their home,” she says.

• Eye-catching pops of color – Earthy tones like creams, greens and matte black are color trends for 2020. “Bring in a pop of earthy color paint to shutters, window boxes and doors,” says Galvan. She goes on, “Just a small amount of color can create a whole new look.”
