Remodeling? Where to begin…

If you are considering a remodel or a furniture revamping….I think the website Houzz is a terrific tool to work with and a great place to begin. By gathering ideas into your “Ideabook” on the website you can revisit them as your thoughts work through what you want to accomplish or you can share them with an interior designer or architect. A visual picture is ideal to relate to a professional the look you are trying to achieve.  In many cases Houzz also provides the prices of items, flooring, fabric and lighting which you can use to construct a beginning budget.

According to Dale Hrabi’s article in the Wall St Journal this weekend, buyers are gravitating to purchasing historic, architectural homes and updating the interiors; thus distancing themselves from larger, sterile Mega-Mansions. Still desirous of roomy kitchens, open concept family rooms, luxurious master bathrooms and large walk in closets they are having these designed within homes inspired by historic models.  Hrabi writes,”The average size of new houses shrank in 2013 to a little over 2600 square feet.”

Adding Space to a Room

Tight on space, build your own furniture unit! I think this is a great way to add storage space and lighting in a small bedroom.  The built in shelving and drawers become the housing for what makes your room comfortable and relaxing to you. Elegance and comfort in a small space.
