The residence was renovated by a young couple who inherited their home from their grandfather, its original owner and builder. The third generation home is contemporary and streamlined, boasting natural wood finishes and white walls. This sophisticated residence is bathed in natural light and also includes an [open-concept plan](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/triplex-fabre) that is adorned with glass and metal fixtures. From its soaring staircase to its skylight windows, this Quebec family home is a dream for design lovers. The [minimalist home](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/vaulted-monochrome-haus) is simplistic but still features striking details like built-in shelving and paneled partitions and pops of punchy, yellow hues. ## Trend Insights (Trend Hunter) - Score: 3.3/10 - Popularity: 65% | Activity: 26% | Freshness: 8% - Audience gender: 50% men, 50% women - Primary generations: Millennial, Gen X - Top markets: Europe ## Categories [Trend Hunter](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends) > [Art & Design](https://www.trendhunter.com/artdesign) > [Architecture](https://www.trendhunter.com/architecture) ## Key Themes ### What Makes This Trend Stand Out - **Contemporary Design Aesthetics:** Opportunity for businesses to create sleek and modern designs with natural material finishes and clean lines. - **Open-concept Floor Plans:** Opportunity for businesses to create spacious and flexible living spaces with glass and metal fixtures. - **Minimalist Home Decor:** Opportunity for businesses to cater to the demand for simplistic yet striking home decor with built-in shelving and pops of vibrant colors. ### Sectors Adopting This - **Interior Design:** Disruptive innovation opportunities in creating contemporary, minimalist designs with natural material finishes and clean lines. - **Architecture:** Disruptive innovation opportunities in designing open-concept floor plans with glass and metal fixtures for spacious and flexible living spaces. - **Home Furnishings:** Disruptive innovation opportunities in providing minimalist home decor solutions with built-in shelving and vibrant color accents. ## Related on Trend Hunter - [Mid-Century Style Montreal Homes](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/residence-ave-duchastel.md) - [Contemporary Mountainous Homes](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/mountainous-home.md) - [Landscape-Honoring Modern Homes](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/des-forges-residence.md) - [Forest-Nestled Dynamic Residences](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/q88-residence.md) - [Timber-Clad Canadian Holiday Homes](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/la-cime.md) - [Thoughtful Lakeside Home Designs](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/lakeside-living.md) - [Minimal Philosophy Toronto Homes](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/forest-hill-residence.md) - [Gabled Rural Serene Residences](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/des-lauriers-house.md) - [Family-Oriented Apartment Renovations](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/triplex-fabre.md)
