Do you feel uninspired in your home? Maybe you’ve had the same wallpaper and furniture for years, and it feels a bit stale. Don’t worry, that’s normal, interior designers suggest we should innovate our home every seven years – so here is where to start and what you can do.  

Front Door Designs 

If you were a journalist writing a news story that was intended to “excite,” you would start the story with the most exciting part – this sets the tone for the rest of the article and keeps people reading and engaged. The same process works when it comes to refurbishing your home. 

Think of your front door as that first sentence in a magazine or newspaper article. The front door sets the tone and the standard for your entire house. And it’s not just for the neighbours; changing the colour or materials of your front door helps to orientate all the other design styles.    

Bathroom Upgrades

There are various ways you can upgrade your bathroom and make it more exotic and spa-like; after all, why not enjoy a luxury spa experience in the comfort of your home? Even a small bathroom can be upgraded in this way by installing a bidet and mirrors to increase the space. 

Another way you can make your bathroom more exotic is by investing in Tilemall Kit Kat tiles; kit kat tiles look a bit like the chocolate bars, although they are often alternative colours. These tiles give the impression of bamboo on the walls and have a nice texture to enhance the room.

Materials and Colors

There are two ways to approach a home renovation project; you could opt for uniformity and have a single colour scheme for the entire property; alternatively, you could choose a different colour scheme for individual rooms so that each space has its own character, style, and vibe. 

These days, most people choose the second approach to increase the dimensions of the home and give them more mood spaces to enjoy. But it’s not just colours that affect the style and comfort of your home – texture does, too – so make sure you consider various texture options.

Basement Upgrades

If you’re like most people, you have a basement that is cluttered with stuff, the basement is often forgotten about because it’s an excellent place for storage. However, if you ask interior designers, they will tell you that the basement is one of the best spaces for innovative re-design. 

A basement is a perfect space for a home gym or a home office, but they are also ideal for a bonus room such as a home theatre, a games room, or a home bar. A bonus room is not only a fun place to spend your time; it can also increase the value of your home and its buyer appeal.    

Outdoor Rooms 

Over the last few years, outdoor spaces have become more habitable, that’s partly due to the shift to remote working situations and more people occupying the same space throughout the day. Whether you have a front or back yard space, you can incorporate it into your home. 

Outdoor rooms include garden rooms, gazebos, and outdoor furniture that can turn your patio into a pleasant outdoor room in your home. So, if your home is feeling somewhat cramped these days, take a look out of the windows and think about what you can do with your garden. 

Pantry Designs 

A pantry is a storage space that sits close to the kitchen and is used for utility purposes. A pantry is used for storing food, but it can also be used for washing, ironing, and cleaning. A pantry is another space that can become cluttered and ineffective, so think innovation. 

These days, pantries are used to store all of the kitchen essentials to free up the kitchen for cooking and socializing. To make the most of your pantry, you might have to increase its size, but even if it occupies some of the kitchens, it keeps your space organized and uncluttered. 

Final Thoughts

There comes a time when you want to make some changes to your home; this might be to sell the property and obtain a higher market price; it could also be to change your impression of your home and keep it interesting. Mostly, home refurbishments will increase the value of the home. 

Refurbishments don’t always happen all at once; you might want to refurbish one room at a time to reduce the amount of upheaval in your home. Think about your goals for the project and decide where to start; remember to consider a range of innovative ideas before committing.
