  • Feb 28, 2019

Here are 6 ways to stand out from the rest of the cookie-cutter renovations with a few strategic-chosen home renovations!

Exterior area matters

Many of us usually budget to spend our renovation funds for our home’s interior. However, most of us forget that it is the exterior that our guest will first encounter! It is akin to tantalizing the taste buds of our guests prior to serving the main course! Hence, by making the area of our exterior inviting and creative, it will make a lasting first impression for our guests for years.

What better way to give your guests a teaser by installing unusual, customized or stylish cool industrial looking front-door gate!

Entry way sets the right tone

An appropriately designed foyer, which is a transitory spot, sets the appropriate tone as it gently welcomes and introduces the personality of your home to your guests.

One way is to make use of contrasting tiles to make a seamless transition from the walkway to the living room.

Create relaxing spaces for lifetime memories

To be specific, this place has to be where you and family and loved ones gather together for hours to bond after a warm delicious meal. As a home is an energetic extension of ourselves; it can be expressed by the elements used to decorate the place. Hence, this area can be decorated with embellishments and that remind you of who you are and where you are from.

Aside from the aesthetic, inject some green elements in the communal area will help you and your guests relax, soothe the muscles and eyes after a meal. This will certainly create a memorable experience for your guests.

Divide and conquer

Creating privacy or define new areas from open spaces is a big challenge since open spaces are among the dominant home interior design trends in recent years. Dividers bring order to open spaces by creating privacy or defining new areas. Its impermanence allows significant flexibility and this allows ample light and air to flow in with ease.

An intricately designed divider either in bricks, concrete or metal serves as a privacy screen from the prying eyes.
