3 Ways to add character to your home

FEATURED NEW

If you want to inject more character into your home then take a look at these three tips that will add instant appeal.

be

Improve your Frontage
Your frontage creates the first impression of your home so if yours looks scruffy and neglected then give it a facelift. You can take simple steps like cleaning and tidying your driveway, repointing or repainting your exterior walls or adding interest with plants. If you’ve got more money to spend then you could consider making bigger changes such as having a new driveway installed, replacing UPVC with
timber windows or reroofing. Simply cleaning and tidying will make a huge difference but bigger and more expensive changes will be more lasting and could even add value to your home.

Inject Personality
Homes don’t necessarily have to be older in order for them to have character. Although period features like fireplaces and cornicing do help, you can give your rooms a warmer and more inviting feel by creating an accent wall. Choose one wall and decorate in bold, bright paper. This will give your room a focal point, which is especially useful if you don’t have features such as fireplaces.

interior

The rise in the popularity of property shows has led many homeowners to believe that they must decorate their homes neutrally. That’s all very well if you’re planning to sell but if you’re going to be living in your home for a few years then choose the colours and styles you love, not what will appeal to other people. Don’ be afraid to display your collections, add quirky ornaments or bold soft furnishings to your rooms as you’ll feel much happier if you’re surrounded by the things you love.

Replace Flooring
In older homes stripped wooden floorboards can create a rustic or formal feel and are much easier to keep clean than carpets. If you’re lucky enough to have original tiles in your hallway then uncover them and make them the focus of your front entrance. To warm up wooden floors add some luxurious rugs in soft materials and warm colours.

Replace old carpets with smart new floor coverings that will make your rooms look instantly neater, lighter and brighter. In the kitchen add an unusual edge with a vinyl or even polished concrete floor that will make your kitchen completely unique.

Home Interiors and Mobility

FEATURED NEW

Whilst a lot of home interior articles often discuss the merits of style and aesthetically pleasing color choice, there are many situations where a sense of practicality and functionality are vital. A home is a home, first and foremost, after all.

apartment

 

When dealing with a home that includes elderly or disabled members, this is certainly the case. Primarily, this is because you need to make decisions with practical and functional results. A nice looking house is pointless if someone living in it cant use it to its fullest extent. To this end, here are a number of areas and factors that need to be considered.

Fortunately, most of these don’t infringe on your style or colour choice, but they are none the less important and should always be prioritised above such matters. So, whether it’s the right choice of flooring or the benefits of a home lift, it might be worthwhile for you to take time and consider the practical side of home interiors.

 apartment

Flooring

Your choice of floor can have very real consequences. Laminate flooring, although it looks nice, is known to be slippery. As such, it can be a very dangerous hazard for elderly people, where a slight slip can lead into a very serious fall. Instead, you should focus on carpets and other floors that are hard, soft or simply aren’t slippery. Carpets have the added bonus in that they absorb water and liquids. When walking isn’t a strong point, risking a slip from spilled fluids is just another risk many would rather be without.

home

Likewise, if you have a wheelchair, you need to be careful about how thick the carpet is. Thick and long hairs give the wheelchair more to sink into, making it harder to push. Combined with the above considerations regarding laminate flooring, it’s safe to say that there are some careful considerations. Depending on the individual needs and circumstances of those in the house, it might be crucial to strike a working balance between all the varying factors and needs.

 apartment

Home Lifts

Again, when dealing with elderly or disabled people, mobility is a critical issue. In the home, this is best reflected through the stairs, which often become a major challenge or difficulty for those who already struggle with walking.

One of the solutions to this is to install a home lift. This small, compact lift works like a traditional lift, moving you between floors. Additionally, larger models can even accommodate wheelchairs, meaning such people wouldn’t need to leave the comfort of the chair to move around the home freely, a practical option that’s extremely useful and beneficial.

 

Of course, such lifts do need to through the ceiling, meaning some alterations are required, but it is over a simple process. This means you need two rooms, one above the other, with space in the right area. This is the hardest part to manage, but once you do, it is a rather simple process with plenty of benefits that outweigh all the hard work.

The importance of color

 

They affect our mood and play a fundamental role in our well being. Colors greatly influence our lives today. Their impact on our psyche, their ability to bring a real atmosphere to our homes, they are symbolic elements to be considered especially in decorating a room. But do not forget that there is no right or wrong color for this intimate room. When you choose your bedroom furniture from any furniture shop, keep in mind that it must be in perfect harmony with your taste and be carefully balanced for a successful deco.

The warm colors


To facilitate sleep, it is best to avoid the dominance of so-called hot colors. These are vibrant colors that are more conducive to activity and therefore the living rooms like the kitchen or the bathroom. Red, for example, has a stimulating power and increases heart rate. Yellow, it is tonic, invigorating. He brings an energy and good humor too large for a bedroom. The same goes for the orange part of the room in a real dynamic. If these colors are close to your heart, you can however be distilled in small or on a decorative pillows. Its all about quantity!

Cool colors


The pastel shades and colors can cold your sleep! In the top 3 colors for relaxation and rest, the blue comes undoubtedly in the first place. Bid on a off-white for its softness. But nuances color from other colors to avoid a certain gloom. Go for the chocolate side curtains or ivory for your bed linen. Green ranks second on the podium. Harmonious balance of color symbol, green is ideal for a bedroom. Attention to be given again a complementarity with a secondary color. The marriage of pastel green with a blue will include a real softness to your room. Finally, the rose by its delicacy and soothing side is entirely appropriate for a room. Complete with a decoration in shades of white, cream, pastel yellow or even red.

 Tired of your old office design? Why not giving it a new look with a very limited budget. I recently  made my research for one of my client who want to renovate his office in a small budget,  i come up with a great find. with a long  list of race in office furniture  design. I focus on a nice little office design.

office space

For starters, the office design you see in the picture is a model from from one of my favorite designer. It is made of sheet steel and gunmetal gray: I love it! Super simple but elegant.  Then, to go with this wonder Ill see this office chair design,  You like? No, I say this, because it would be fine with me and my client precisely as we got limited budget.

They wanted to change office chair as well, in addition, it exists in different colors and frankly, if I had to pick one. I would be a bit lost.
