Do you live in a small home?
Don’t have the cash saved up for a full-scale remodel?
With smart, mini makeover projects, you can maximize the square footage in your home without compromising on style.
Consider:
- Opening up your space: Look at the overall structure of your home. Are there lots of walls and separate rooms? In older homes, separate rooms for relaxing, dining, and sleeping were the norm, where today’s remodeling projects often call for open floor plans. Tightly compartmentalized rooms and hallways can make an already small home feel smaller, so consider opening at least some of the space if your budget allows.
- Creating zones: If you already have an open floor plan or will be creating one in your home renovation project, you can create visual separation of your space or “zones” for separate activities. For example, use varied flooring material or rugs to maintain the distinction between the living room and kitchen. Some homeowners even opt for a half wall to open up the space, but still keep them separate.
All Smiles from Start to Finish!
The hardest space to re-envision is usually the one you live in -- even for professional designers! Sometimes clients begin the design conversation by telling us, “I know there’s nothing you can do about this layout…” We prefer to begin with the assumption that there’s not much we can’t do.
Our local know-how ensures a smooth process. Although Ann Arbor is our home, we’ve been working with building officials in jurisdictions from Jackson to Livonia since 1989. You can be confident that your project will be designed right the first time and will meet local requirements.
