With longer, warmer days approaching, and a hint of normality returning to our lives, we thought it a great idea to discuss some popular summer renovations for your home and garden.
Bright Entrance
An inexpensive way to give your house a facelift is to paint the front door a bright, vibrant colour. It not only makes your home stand out among its neighbours, but it also adds immediate curb appeal to your property. Popular shades for home entrances this year are all from the primary colour spectrum, boasting eye-catching confidence.
Home Office
Many companies no longer require their employees to be in the office every day, but they do require them to be at work. This has resulted in many people converting spaces within their home or garden into dedicated workspaces.
Being Outdoors
Summer gardens are often colourful displays that immediately lift your spirit. Spending time outdoors is essential for the improvement of your mood and the sunshine contains vitamin D which contributes to healthy bones.
If you have space available, you could either install a small splash pool to cool off or a fire pit around which to share stories while toasting marshmallows. Although chimineas have their origin in Mexico, they are proving to be popular additions to UK gardens, keeping residents warm through the evening.
Furniture
Rattan furniture is proving to be a popular choice for garden furniture. Add loose seating cushions with removable canvas coverings that can be laundered on a regular basis. There are also foldable rattan loungers available which can easily be stored in a garden shed or log cabin when not in use.
Vertical Gardens
Not everyone has a large open space in which to create a green space. The answer in such cases is to garden vertically. Aside from beautifying your property, vertical gardens can be made from recyclable materials such as plastic bottles.
Bathroom Oasis
Bringing plants into the home, particularly the bathroom, is an increasing home renovation trend. Tropical plants such as orchids, tree ferns, and various varieties of ficus make excellent additions to a relaxing bathroom oasis.
Mesh ‘n Metallics
Kitchens painted in dark shades are a spillover from 2020, but all-white kitchens are also making a comeback. The use of mesh, especially in cabinetry is becoming extremely popular. The textured appearance adds an element of rustic beauty, while the addition of metallic features such as gold taps, adds a luxurious appeal.
Romantic Bedrooms
There is much focus on dedicated spaces in 2021, leading to many people are returning to the living room to watch television and renovating their bedrooms to be spaces of romantic relaxation. With hues of warm pinks or gentle, natural shades, bedrooms are becoming restful escapes for many people after a stressful day at work.
Whatever your next home renovation endeavour, be it spruce to improve your property’s value or a personal indulgence, we hope that these ideas will be useful to you.
