People renovate their homes for all sorts of reasons; some people get bored with their surroundings; others want to add a touch of class. Others still want to renovate to add value to the property before they sell it and move. Whatever the reason, you want to make the right renovation choice, those are ones that give you a fresh-looking interior but also add value to the property. Below are some home makeover ideas.
Flooring and Ceiling
When renovating your home for luxury, it makes a huge difference if you get the floors and ceilings right. This improves the overall look and feel of your house regardless of furniture or fixings. For the floor, your options include marble, laminate, wood, and stone. You could also go for rugs and luxury carpets. The ceiling is a bit different. Not many people think of renovating it, but you can give the illusion of extra height with styles such as a tray, covet, shed, and beams.
Kitchen and Bathroom
If you’re renovating your home, it makes sense to pay attention to the kitchen and bathroom. The kitchen especially as it adds instant value to your property. Firstly install a kitchen island. People love these as they are functional and space savings. Your house will sell instantly if you have one. In the bathroom, install large flag tiles on the floor; these are much preferable to smaller ones. Also, change the fixings and install an open plan shower or hot tubs; again, this will appeal to buyers, and it gives you a modern bathroom to live in.
Windows Treatments
How you treat the windows will make a significant impact on how your interior decoration performs. High windows deserve the luxury treatment with long curtains sporting tussles or pelmets. For smaller windows in the bedrooms and bathrooms, you could go for classy blinds or shutters. Although the window treatments won’t make or break your interior design vision, they are the small details that will make a big difference.
Lighting
The lighting in your home should also be considered when renovating the space and adding more luxury to it. Warm light will give a holy welcoming feel and is good for front rooms, lounges, and bedrooms. A cold light might not sound appealing, but it works well in kitchens, home offices, and garages. A cold light gives a practical and active atmosphere to a room. For extra luxury, consider a chandelier in places with high ceilings or godforsaken a modern vibe with energy-saving lights and LED stripe.
Furniture
When you have finished with the walls, floor, and ceiling, it’s time for the fun part, the furniture. It’s great to go online and search for the type of furniture you like. You can pick up some bargains on marketplaces. Antique shops are also a good place to find some luxury furniture items. If you like the mixed and matched look then this is a good way to buy, otherwise, go to a modern furniture store and buy a uniform style where everything matches.
