Properties in 2030: the trends that will shape the future

The trends that will mark the future of homes

After reading the report “Macrotrends around housing 2023-2030” – prepared by the real estate project management platform Culmia and the consulting firm A Piece of Pie – we analyse the highlights so you can get an idea.

Predictive intelligence

The houses will be autonomous and will learn from their residents. For example, technological systems will be able to recognize routes through the house and turn on the lights according to the users' usual movements. They will also adapt to individual preferences and the surrounding climatic conditions.

Interiorized exteriors

The search for greener, healthier and more peaceful home environments to improve the relationship with nature and well-being will increase. It will be essential to incorporate natural elements into the design of the properties and establish a link between the interior and the surrounding outdoor environment.

Greater demand for natural materials

Sustainability and health will have a significant impact on all facets of property design. Due to the increase in individual awareness of issues of ecological responsibility and concern for the health of occupants, the use of materials such as: Wood, Ceramics, Natural paints and varnish, Hemp and Cork will increase substantially.

Health care

The property will be transformed into an environment that will promote personal health and play an important role in disease prevention. Devices and sensors will be incorporated that will monitor health, which will facilitate future analysis by specialist doctors.

Standardization of spaces inside the property

Regarding the size, light and ventilation of the spaces, they will be designed with the idea of reducing hierarchical divisions and providing flexibility. For example, panels or furniture will be used to separate spaces.

Dwellings will become multifunctional homes and rooms will be more adaptable. Those open spaces that take advantage of natural light will be more valued.

Independent living in a community setting

There will be an increase in supply and demand for property models that encourage community membership and its associated benefits; such as greater social interaction, shared spaces and common services.

Among the new housing solutions that are emerging, co-living and senior living, among others, will gain prominence in the market.
