If you’re one of the lucky ones with a home of your own, a nice income and the opportunity, time and capital to make some home improvements, then now is the perfect time to do it. Although the economy is slowly returning to some semblance of normality and the housing market it starting to show signs of recovery, it’s still not a good time to think about selling. If you’re not selling, of course, that means making do with the property you have, so rather than moving, start to think about improving.
To create the home of your dreams, it’s going to need an extra special makeover. If you’re not particularly confident when it comes to creating innovative and unique looks for your house, then don’t worry; we’ve put together this guide to three of the best aesthetics – we promise they’ll leave your guests green with envy.
Bringing the Outdoors In
A trend that is becoming ever more popular, not just at home, but in offices and other public spaces, is to bring more and more of the outdoors into homes, creating a more permeable barrier between the house and the garden. You can recreate this in your home by using natural paving downstairs, adding plants where you can and introducing lots of natural light by opening windows and placing mirrors strategically.
Organic Chic
Another unique look that you can apply to your whole home is organic chic. Apply the trend by making use of only natural, organic materials. For example, if you have wood floorboards, remove your carpets and polish them up. Instead of a generic white shower, install a wooden one instead, and upcycle used products whenever you can. This will help to give each room a story.
The Minimalist Approach
Finally, a style that is perhaps more difficult to implement than you’d think – but looks great if you can get it right – is the minimalist look. Paint all of your walls white, purchase white furniture and only use colour to add accents to your walls and possessions. The only problem with this look is that everything that isn’t white has to be turned white, or else replaced with a white version of itself which can start to add up. However, if you’re planning on sticking around then it’s most definitely worth the expense, and a home improvement loan like the ones available from Nemo Loanso could be used to top up your funds (just make sure you can comfortably afford the monthly repayments though, or you could face repossession). A Nemo loan is secured on your home.
So there you have it – three unique aesthetics that can help to turn your home into a haven.
