Home Design: Beautiful on the inside, and outside

We know that we call ourselves interior designers but it is not only about what’s on the inside. Your home can be beautiful on the outside too and we can help elevate your exterior!

Starting out by cleaning up what you already have with some maintenance to the outside of your home. A simple power wash to freshen up the siding can do the trick to make paint look brand new! You likely won't realize the difference clearing fallen leaves or excess dirt will make until you do it.

Paint! This is likely the most obvious way to spruce up the outside of your house and give it just the lift it needs. Even if you don’t necessarily want to change the color of your exterior, a fresh paint job will do the trick too! If you have brick or, try an accent color on your doors or shutters.

One of our favorite parts about outdoor design is landscaping. It can truly transform a home and the curb appeal will elevate with the use of colored trees, flowers and plants. Even the way they are placed makes a difference. Try softening the hard lines of a boxy exterior by adding curves with different walkways and plant types.

Don’t forget about potted flowers! They are always a plus and can be exchanged throughout the seasons so you’re never without plants.

Lightening is something we often talk about in blogs as it really makes a difference and can transform the way a space feels, both inside and outside. Properly lit exterior not only helps with guests feeling welcome when visiting your home, but also adds to the overall ambience. This is especially impactful during those dark and dreary months.

With these simple tools, you’ll be able to give the exterior of your home a little face lift without going into total renovation. Interested in how to get started? Call us at 888-707-3331!
