Modern Garage Design – Predicting the Trends for 2022
Equating to roughly 40% of your house’s façade, an entrance (and safe lock-up for your property) is the first thing to be seen when welcoming friends, family or yourself to your homestead. This is why customers, architects and designers place a big focus on style and longevity when choosing or conjuring up modern garage design.
Of course, function and security are the leading factors in the construction of modern residential shutters. But that doesn’t mean that the style factor is neglected when designing the garages of tomorrow. Here are some of the features to look out for in modern garage design in 2022.
Colour
Colour plays a significant role in what is guaranteed to be inviting to the eyes.
Pantone’s of dark Reds, Yellows, Greens, Blacks and Purples – avoided pretty much completely – provoking anxious feelings of cluster phobia. Contributing to “dense” energy.
Lighter pantone’s striking up feelings of relief, calm, openness and trust – in a blue as soft as a baby’s blanket. While white remains the hot favourite as the brightest sight in the suburbs.
But, let’s not forget the creative. Combining colours in stark variations for a truly striking modern garage design that lifts your property right from the curbside foundations. Earning that second glance – or “double take” as they say. May we never forget the “subtle tribute to the Greek flag from “My Big Fat Greek Wedding”.
Texture in Modern Garage Design
Again remember that texture also plays with the psychological connections we form with materials. Wood – calming from organic origin. Its earthiness, brings about feelings of comfort and cosiness. Steel does the opposite, it creates a sense of DANGER, GEVAAR, INGOZI – that roughly translates to “Keep out! This is a well-fortified residence.” Each to its own owner’s preference, but options aplenty to entice the homeowner when considering a residential doors upgrade in 2022
Wooden doors still rule the roost when it comes to materials and 2021 has seen a rise in a “back to the roots” approach. Believe it or not, but Barn Doors and Oak Frames dominate the search engines – Farmhouse and Saloon style.
Glass too has become quite popular due to the fact that many owners use their garages for more than just storing their cars. Laundry rooms and home gym areas, if not offices or studios, now enjoy sharing this space more especially after recent Lockdown times, with more natural light entering the area. Glass is perfectly complemented by aluminium frames to provide a sturdy yet lightweight option that jumps right to the top of our modern garage designs trends for 2022.

Remember, it is not something we change as often as our socks, so picking something that lasts aesthetically is just as important as the durability and structural integrity thereof. A change could very much revamp the entire look of your property as the door is a very central eyepiece.
