Having a more spacious, comfortable and liveable home can be achieved through simple renovations. Starting with simple things like lighting, storage, and fixtures, you can easily transform your space. If you’re looking to make your home more liveable, then this article is for you! We’re sharing our top five tips to help you achieve your reno goals. 

Improve Your Lighting

Lighting plays a crucial role in making your home more liveable. Adequate lighting can make your rooms appear bigger and brighter, and it can also help to enhance your mood. Consider installing a combination of natural and artificial lighting sources, such as skylights and pendant lights, to create a more balanced and inviting atmosphere.

Increase Your Storage Space

Clutter can make your home feel cramped and disorganised. If you’re running out of storage space, consider investing in custom-built shelving units, wardrobes or cabinets. Built-in storage solutions can help to maximise your available space while keeping your belongings organised and within easy reach.

Upgrade Your Bathroom

A bathroom renovation can greatly enhance your home’s functionality and appeal. Consider updating your fixtures and fittings, installing a new bathtub or shower, or adding new tiles to freshen up the space. You can also consider creating more storage space in your bathroom to help keep it tidy and organised. Take a look at this bathroom we renovated in Alderley, Brisbane, to inspire you (see above!). 

Add a Deck or Patio

An outdoor living space can make your home feel more spacious and inviting. Consider adding a deck or patio to your backyard to create a comfortable and functional outdoor area for entertaining or relaxing. A well-designed outdoor space can also add value to your home and improve its overall appeal. Take a look at this deck we installed as part of our recent renovation project in Alderley, Brisbane, for inspiration. 

Upgrade Your Kitchen

The kitchen is often considered the heart of the home, and a kitchen renovation can help to increase your home’s value and appeal. Consider upgrading your appliances, replacing your cabinets, or adding new countertops to create a more functional and attractive space. A well-designed kitchen can also help to improve your home’s resale value. This kitchen above was part of our recent renovation project in Greenslopes, Brisbane, and we think it looks stunning!

Making your home more liveable is a worthwhile investment that can greatly enhance your quality of life. Whether you’re looking to increase your storage space, improve your lighting, upgrade your bathroom or kitchen, or add a deck or patio to your outdoor space, there are plenty of ways to make your home more comfortable and functional.
