A timeless home design won’t ever create an outdated space. With the right design and implementation, it’s easy to create a home that’s timeless in appeal and aesthetics. In today’s post, professional home remodeler DreamMaker Bath & Kitchen of Southern Rhode Island shares the essential secrets of a remodel that is both current and timeless.
Focus on the Flow and Function of Space
Timeless doesn’t just refer to aesthetics; it pertains to how a space works. Open-floor spaces have become popular because it is visually interesting enough that it never gets old and improves the way you feel and view your living room or bedroom. Optimize space utilization by removing walls or repurposing cramped and narrow areas where needed.
Expose and Enhance Your Home’s Architectural Features
Your home’s existing architectural attributes can serve as the cornerstone of your remodel. Preserving and accentuating original features such as hardwood floors, beams or brickwork adds character and a sense of history to your space. Natural building materials with neutral colors naturally possess a timeless appeal that grows only more interesting over time.
Embrace Neutrals and Quality Materials
As mentioned, neutral colors never grow old easily – they have enough flexibility to keep your decor interesting without extensive overhauls. Most interior remodeling designers will recommend neutral palettes for walls and major fixtures to ensure lasting relevance. If you can invest in high-quality materials and finishes for cabinets, countertops, hardware and flooring, you can quickly achieve a lasting elegance and durability against daily wear and tear
Reflect Your Neighborhood’s Character
Drawing inspiration from your local architectural and environmental context is another secret to achieving a remodel that remains meaningful over time. Whether it’s the coastal charm of Rhode Island or the specific historic stylings of your neighborhood, you can easily make your exteriors blend in with the natural aesthetic – its appeal being just as timeless.
Use Flexible Design Elements
While embracing the permanence of architectural features and high-quality materials, also consider versatile design elements that are easy to replace if needed. Most designers would consider furnishings, accessories and art that can be easily changed or updated.
