Americans appear to be in the mood to change their homes. Whether that means finally tackling a dated kitchen, rethinking the living room, or simply giving a space a new look, interest in remodeling has climbed sharply in 2026.
An analysis from home warranty company Cinch Home Services found that Google searches for “remodel” surged 102% compared with the average since tracking began, reaching their highest point in more than two decades. The company also looked at what Americans are searching for when it comes to interior design, analyzing Google Keyword Planner data for 46 different styles from July 2025 through June 2026.
The results give us a clear idea of what people picture when they think about updating their homes. Here are the 10 styles Americans are searching for most as remodeling interest takes off.
Modern
Modern came out on top, and its appeal is easy to understand. Clean lines, uncluttered rooms, neutral colors, and furniture with simple silhouettes can make a home feel updated without relying heavily on short-lived decorating trends.
Bohemian
Bohemian interiors take a much more relaxed approach, layering plants, textiles, patterns, natural materials, and plenty of personality. It works especially well for people who don’t necessarily want every piece of furniture and decor to match.
Mid-Century Modern
Mid-century modern continues to have staying power decades after the furniture that inspired it first became popular. Warm woods, low-profile furniture, geometric shapes, and a mixture of materials give rooms a vintage influence without necessarily making the entire home feel dated.

Minimalist
For some homeowners, remodeling is an opportunity to simplify rather than add more. Minimalist interiors emphasize open space, natural light, restrained colors, and fewer furnishings, making the room itself part of the design.
Farmhouse
Despite years of predictions that farmhouse decor is on its way out, Americans are clearly still interested in the style. Aged wood, traditional fixtures, natural materials, comfortable furniture, and familiar patterns can give a home the lived-in feeling that sleeker styles sometimes lack.
Modern Farmhouse
Modern farmhouse keeps much of that warmth while dialing back some of the more overtly rustic elements. Think natural wood and comfortable furnishings paired with cleaner lines, simpler decor, and a more neutral backdrop.
Coastal
You don’t necessarily need to live near the ocean to understand the appeal of coastal design. Light colors, natural textures, relaxed furnishings, and an airy atmosphere can bring some of that vacation-home feeling into an everyday space without covering the walls in anchors and seashells.
Vintage
Vintage making the top 10 is particularly interesting at a time when so many homeowners are remodeling. Rather than replacing everything with something brand new, this aesthetic makes room for antique furniture, thrifted finds, older artwork, patina, and pieces that look as though they’ve been collected over years.

Rustic
Rustic design leans heavily into natural materials, especially wood, stone, and textured finishes. The result tends to feel warm and comfortable rather than polished, which may explain why it continues to appeal even as cleaner modern interiors dominate searches.
French Country
French country rounds out the most searched styles with a look that’s traditional without necessarily feeling formal. Weathered finishes, vintage-inspired furniture, soft colors, natural materials, and decorative details give rooms a collected, comfortable quality.
