Neutral Decor
Neutral decor is a timeless trend that works well with any style and personality. It creates a calm and elegant atmosphere that lets the architecture and natural light shine. The easiest way to go neutral is to paint your walls in a soft beige, gray, or white. But if you have some extra cash, you can also update your floors with a light wood or tile. And don’t forget to add some neutral accessories like rugs, pillows, throws, and wall art. You can find plenty of affordable and stylish options at stores like West Elm, CB2, and Zara Home.
Mirrors
Mirrors are not only useful for checking yourself out, but also for enhancing your space. They reflect light and create a sense of spaciousness and height. The Stelrad experts suggest using floor-to-ceiling mirrors to make your ceilings look higher and your rooms look bigger. You can also use tall and narrow mirrors to create an optical illusion of a longer hallway.
Japandi Style
Japandi style is a fusion of Japanese and Scandinavian design that combines minimalism and coziness. It features simple lines, neutral colors, low-key artwork, and minimal clutter. But it also adds some warmth and texture with cushions, throws, and linen bedspreads. Japandi style is perfect for creating a serene and inviting space that draws attention to the architectural details.
Hallway Decor
Hallways are often overlooked when it comes to decorating, but they can make a big difference in your home’s appeal. The Stelrad experts recommend adding some personality and interest to your hallways with artwork, plants, lighting, and rugs. You can also use wallpaper or paint to add some color and pattern to your walls.
Patio Doors
Patio doors are a great way to connect your indoor and outdoor spaces and let in more natural light. They also make your home look more open and airy. The Stelrad experts suggest choosing sliding or bi-fold doors that can be opened fully to create a seamless transition between your living room and your backyard. You can also add some curtains or blinds for privacy and shade.
Now that you know some of the features that make the Selling Sunset homes so amazing, you can try to recreate them in your own home.
