New Trends within the Architectural Industry: what to expect in 2022

2022 has just started, but it’s already taking the architectural world by storm. In this article, we’ll explore the five main architectural phenomenons that will truly transform your next project: minimalism, durability, natural light, multi-functionality, and decorative walls, floors, and roofs.

5 Architectural Trends of 2022

Minimalism 

Gone are the days of over-the-top, gaudy designs. Minimalism is in and it needs to be the focus of your next design. Instead of overwhelming your space with lots of unnecessary furniture or architecture that steals the eye, try focusing on only what’s necessary. Letting your high-quality design speak for itself instead of doing too much can give the space an elegant, refined look. 

Choosing plywood from our Elegance range allows you to pick from a wide selection of faces, including birch, cherry, maple, and many more. Choose the finish that best fits your design and enjoy your exquisite creation.

Durability

It’s more important than ever before to choose products that will last, for both the good of your project and the environment. Long-lasting materials not only lead to less waste, but also save you money down the road. Remember, your projects are investments for the future and you’ll be glad that you chose high-quality materials that can withstand the elements, water, and more later on. 

Ganica’s Duraply range offers different kinds of ultra durable plywood that ensures your project will last for a long time, even for outdoor projects like porches, walkways, and sheds.

Natural Light 

Another simultaneously sustainable and innovative architectural trend is using natural light. Although this seems rather simple, the best architects will take natural sunlight into consideration when designing the home; strategically designing the home to face the sun and receive lots of natural light helps create both a sustainable design that requires less energy to be used to light the home and the added value of a sunlit design. 

Garnica’s plywood panels are easy to machine and manufacture, allowing you to choose the exact size of the panels, fitting even the most demanding design.

Multi-functionality

A key part of designing a modern and sustainable home is to create pieces that have multiple functions, therefore limiting the amount of materials used and taking advantage of every inch of space. This also contributes to a minimalist design; try combining storage with utility such as tables that store chairs when not in use, or benches doubling as extra storage space. 

Garnica’s plywood for both indoor and outdoor furniture is the perfect for creating aesthetically pleasing and versatile pieces that reduce clutter, serve multiple purposes, and contribute to a smarter and more sustainable home.

Decorative Floors, Walls, and Ceilings 

Floors, walls, and ceilings are major parts of your home, but they’re frequently overlooked when it comes to design. However, in 2022, use these elements to make the most of your space. Creative roof designs or window placement can add an extra layer of innovation and beauty to your home; paneled floors with designs or patterns can transform an otherwise simple space. 

Garnica’s structural construction plywood range is perfect for creating a sustainable and innovative design. It offers soundproof and insulated panels to both eliminate outside noise and lower costs of heating and cooling throughout the year.
