SEATTLE, Feb. 13, 2023 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) -- Tiny homes will be big, energy savings will be hot and ideas for multigenerational living will be in abundance when the Seattle Home & Garden Show 2023, the oldest and largest home show in the nation, opens its doors February 25 through March 5 at Lumen Field Event Center.

A tiny home display featuring the latest designs in backyard cottages for the Northwest, a full offgrid solar power system that can power your home year round and solutions for keeping your home comfortable during weather extremes are just some of the products and services Northwesterners will see at this year’s show. With higher housing prices and interest rates, Northwesterners are opting to stay in place and remodel, say exhibitors at the Seattle Home & Garden Show, who represent some of the leading building, design, landscape and home improvement professionals in the region.

“The Seattle Home & Garden Show is a one-stop shopping opportunity for home improvement,” said Michael Kalian, executive director for the Seattle Home & Garden Show. “The public can meet with leading building and design professionals in the region, as well as comparison shop no matter the size of their project, all in a single location.”

New to this year’s Seattle Home & Garden Show is a tiny homes village highlighting the latest trends in affordable housing. Built by Carriage Houses Northwest of Marysville, this exhibit features the latest designs in backyard cottages and accessory dwelling units. All the homes in the exhibit will focus on affordable housing, whether it is for use as primary residences (including expanding living space) or recreational housing.

Other features at this year’s Seattle Home & Garden Show include:

• LANFest, an onsite computer gaming event for gamers of all ages
• A 20 x 80 square foot game room exhibit featuring the latest in in game room equipment
• Swim/Bike/Run for Habitat, an onsite fundraiser for affordable housing with proceeds donated to Habitat for Humanity (the public is invited to sign up to compete)
