What Renovators Are Actually Deciding This Year

· 1 min read

Architectural Digest's trade arm, AD PRO, has released its 2026 Home Renovation Report, mapping out the decisions now driving serious remodels rather than the finishes. Historic preservation, climate-proofing, and aging in place top the list — the exact calculus facing owners of landmarked cottages in Palm Beach, shingled Hamptons houses, and mountain homes in Aspen. The report treats a good renovation as a series of correct calls made in order, not a single vision imposed all at once.

With reporting from Architectural Digest.
