Bonus rooms also known as flex rooms are unused rooms around the house in addition to the living room, guest room and the bed rooms. Since they don’t have a designated use you can repurpose them in different ways. They sometimes come with challenging layouts but there’s nothing you can’t fix with a little bit of clever planning!

If you’re scratching your head over how to define that awkwardly placed space in your home, here’s a list of ideas we put together to get your design juices flowing:

1. Kids Activity Room:

If you have kids, you can definitely use your bonus room as a kids activity room. This will help you keep your home away from the constant mess that kids tend to make and you won’t have to collect toys from all over the house all the time. With a designated space to play, it’ll just be one room to clean. You can also put a chalkboard in there and a study table so it can also be used to do homework away from other distractions. Use shelves and organisers to store toys and school supplies and turn the space into a fun activity room!

2. Home Office:

If you work from home, you can totally use your bonus room as an office. Since there will be no noise or distractions, it will be really easy to focus on work. You can renovate it to look professional, place an office desk and a couple of chairs, shelves and organisers around to complete your office look. Make sure there’s ample light in the room to make work easier. It also gives a quiet space for making conference calls or attending clients, and becomes a catalyst for productivity!

3. Home Gym:

Finally getting in the mood to complete a fitness challenge? A bonus room can definitely work as a gym or yoga studio. People who work as fitness instructors can use a home gym since gyms are closed during the pandemic. Place some mats, necessary workout equipment, calming scents and reed diffusers, and a stereo system and viola, your very own home gym is good to go!

4. Library or Reading Nook:

Bonus rooms come with challenging layouts and often strange angles which might work out for a bedroom, office or even a gym, but one thing you can use it for no matter how many corners it has, is a library and a reading nook! You can create your DIY shelves or get some old drawers from a flea market, place some cushions in a corner, a lamp and some covers and have your own library with a reading nook ready to go. It will help keep the noise and distraction away and make for a perfect relaxing spot!

5. Home Theatre:

The concept of home theatres has mostly only existed in luxury homes with plenty of empty space and rooms. But you can create your own theatre with just a projector, some couches, bean bag chairs or even mattresses, and an empty wall. This is a perfect hangout spot with your friends and since the theatres are closed due the pandemic, and you totally create your own mini cinema at home (where you’re allowed to take in your own snacks!).

6. Laundry Room:

If you don’t have a separate laundry room in your home, you can use the bonus room as one. This is actually the most common use of a bonus room. Just keep all your necessary laundry stuff in the room and keep the piles of laundry hidden away!

Bonus rooms are a luxury in itself because you can use them to make up for whatever your home is missing. And it doesn’t have to stay the same! For example if you were using your bonus room as a kids activity room, you can turn it into a hangout spot once they’ve grown up. So if you have a bonus room in your home, use it as an opportunity to get your DIY juices flowing this pandemic and create something awesome out of it!

1.Website/ Magazines Are Full Of Inspirations

We all know somebody who is an avid “pinner” on Pinterest. It could either be you or one of your friends but the point is that everybody craves a good home interior. In this digital age most of decor websites or apps can spark a flame of creativity, we often think we never had.

Save pictures and designs that excite you. After hunting, If you don’t have a budget look for creative ways to get these designs done using DIY methods. If you have the budget then we will say “ ooh fancy” and then recommend you to hire an interior designer for your home. 

2. Color Scheme

After you have collected some ideas of the styles of decoration that you would like around your house, it’s time to pick color schemes. Colour schemes are one of the toughest parts of decorating your home. Look at your inspiration boards across websites or apps or pictures and see what colors or patterns emerge again and again and try to pick three to four shades of that. One main color for the walls and a second for the couches & chairs which would have to complement the ones on the walls and a third color that adds a pop to your accessories such as trays, small decorative pieces, and baskets.

Moreover, consider adding light to your home because all of these colors will only look as good as the light they are surrounded by. The formula of three colors in any combination is a good way to start. Just remember that three is always better than two in a room well done. Not only does it take out the boring but also gives it an extra oomph.

3. Texture Is Your Friend

 If you are a person of single colors then texture is your best friend. If you look at single-color rooms at first glance they might seem painted or done in one color but if you look closely there are different sheets of the same color to add texture to the room. The texture can be added using fabrics/textiles such as draperies, velvet chairs, cushions, throws, and blankets, etc.

To bring a dull room to light, texture plays an important role and it also speaks volumes about the personality of the owner. Make sure that you pick out the textures that suit your lifestyle. For example, if you have kids or dogs a cotton sofa is a bad idea but a mohair chair or darker leather sofa will suit your needs. If you love luxury then consider some high-end pillows and draperies.

The new decade has brought some amazing kitchen remodeling concepts that make your older kitchen a bit outdated. Maybe your marble countertops need a better finishing of butcher block, granite, or quartz which are undoubtedly more durable and long-lasting, or your all-white kitchen is now deemed boring and the bold monochromes have taken the walls and flooring and the textured wooden tones to add a rustic touch in your kitchen. Or your open kitchen is substituted with the closed and concealed ones. So if you care to keep up with the latest trends of kitchen remodeling, let’s find out why you need to remodel your kitchen today and the trends that must be incorporated into it. 

1. Concealed Kitchens Are The New Trend 

The new kitchen designs are compact and concealed. The idea behind the notion is maximum efficiency and durability and minimum clutter and interference. For that reason, careful consideration is vital to utilize every inch of the space while keeping enough space to move around. To start with, the cabinets must be built on one wall, instead of larger style dressers, and work with tall wall units to streamline space. Breakfast bars and kitchen islands are a must but with careful dimensions, although a floating island is a better option. 

2. Subtle Floorings For Warm Vibes 

The terra cotta flooring promises a traditional yet unique and elegant kitchen for those who love earthy and warm tones of potted plants and green gardens. Pair the earthy flooring with brass hardware and soaprock countertops for a unique and happening look to your kitchen. The terracotta tiles are handmade and along with flooring, if you want to decorate your kitchen walls with refined texture, try cement or terracotta tiles in vibrant or neutral hues according to your taste.

3. Kitchen Ceiling Are Equally Important 

People spend thousands of dollars renovating their kitchens and slip one of the most important areas that could otherwise bring a lot of novelty and elegance into their space. Yes, we are talking about the kitchen ceiling. Adorn your regular ceiling with groin vault, shed style, coffered, beams,  drop and tray ceiling, or with the ceiling tiles. Among all of them, the angled glass kitchen ceilings are the most trendy in small contemporary kitchens. Or if you don’t want to spend much, add a popping wallpaper, wood paneling or just a refreshing coat of paint to add a flair.

4. Conceal Your Appliances 

The new decade is all about concealed kitchens. The kitchen cabinetry system is designed in a way that reduces the presence of small appliances on the countertop. Or a hidden station to conceal dishwashers, kettle and toaster, microwave, and even fridge. The aesthetic and alignment of kitchen appliances with the tiles, wall color, backsplash, and the kitchen island has always been a daunting task, so rather than getting two-toned, or mix and match, concealing these appliances is deemed as a perfect solution in order to maintain a compact kitchen. 

5. Vibrant Colors Are A Must!

The all-white kitchens are meticulously impeccable. Although the latest trend is more about vibrant and striking colors. Whether it’s the cabinet color or the walls behind them, a popped-out color is all your kitchen needs to keep up a modern approach. As of today the black cabinets are certainly trendy, but don’t go all black, nix it with the sleek upper wood textured cabinets, open shelving would be even better. As of the dark drama, the black color emits fiery energy, liveliness, and sumptuousness in your kitchen. 

The kitchen is the most multifunctional place in a house. Investing and upgrading it brings an invaluable addition to your home both while you are living in it and when you intend to sell your property. 

What is the purpose of renovating your home if it does not bear any fruit? Imagine going through  weeks of struggles, spending all your savings and yet the outcome is not pleasing enough. Your home renovation plan must add value to your house. You are definitely free to make your own decisions, and choose what’s best for your home. However, there are few essential additions that would add more flexibility to your lifestyle. These additions won’t get you bankrupt or become a nightmare. But rather add a unique twist that would add comfort and value to your home. We suggest that if you’re interested in getting one step closer to the house of your dreams keep reading. 

Let’s dig into those essential additions nobody told you about! 

1. Install A Security System 

Security concerns are a priority even if you live in a safe neighborhood. Renovation days are chaotic to say the least. The frequent coming and going of designers, contractors, laborers can be distracting. As it is most likely that you would not be at home 24/7 to keep a check. The solution? Install cameras and video doorbells to monitor your home at all times, you can even check the footage later on. Smart locks prove to be extremely beneficial as well. These precautions can be fruitful for the coming years as well. A smart security system will help you keep your house safe no matter where you are.  

2. Cost Estimates 

Home renovation plans always have an estimated cost of everything. The budget is set and the goal is to fulfill the expenses within that range. Yet, this is not the safest option. Your estimate can be proven wrong. It is preferable to always add 20 percent of the estimated cost. It might help you save more than you could think of. Additional estimates are safe and save you from going bankrupt! But always try making a budget and sticking to it. 

3. Don’t Be A Control Freak 

This isn’t a silly addition! We have a habit of noting down everything and expecting for things to go as per the plan. The obsession with perfection can lead to major mishaps if things don’t go well. It is good to have control but if things are not going as per the plan, you need not to fret. Let them go with the flow and wait for the end results. At times, it’s best to trust the universe for making it right. You can renovate your home but not your health! So stop worrying about every small thing and learn to ignore some problems too! 

4. Never Stop Interrogating 

While we are a strong believer of not worrying too much we still believe that curiosity ain’t a bad thing and asking questions is definitely not. We can never be 100% sure of our choices. If you have any doubts or any queries then don’t hold back. Ask away from professionals, designers, contractors as many questions as you want. Be sure about every decision till the very end. Questions don’t cost anything so feel free, it is YOUR home we are talking about! So never hesitate to ask the important questions even if you think they might seem a little dumb. 

5. The Right Replacements 

Your entire home renovation plan is of no use if you have not replaced the windows, installed ceiling fans, and upgraded the kitchen cabinets and handles. These minute details are essential to make your home look better and increase its value. Instead of cheap plastic or aluminum blinds, opt for plantation shutters or wooden drapes. Save your electricity bills and instead of hefty air conditioning install ceiling fans. If you wish to sell your home, make sure that the kitchen looks chic and classy. It needs to be appealing for the eye but more than that it needs to have quality hardware. 

No home renovation plan can be perfect and save you from worrying in the end but we hope that with these essentials we may be able to help minimize the stress. 

You may suffer the lack of space in your kitchen while you are in the process of renovation. But there are plenty of reasons why small is better; small spaces are easier to decorate, easier to keep clean, and easier to organize. Many of us have small kitchens so we‘ll be discussing about maximizing your small kitchen space and how to make it feel bigger than it actually is, without breaking the bank.

1. Storage spaces:

The first area we must focus on is storage. In case you have so many utensils and gadgets, perhaps a purge is a good idea but before you purge, think of different ways to store items outside of kitchen cabinetry. For example, who needs a pot drawer, if you can hang your pot drawers on the wall in a creative and decent manner. Any wall space becomes a key area for storage if utilized smartly. Hanging it up means you can free up space in your cabinetry for other items. Choose anything that you would like to have at arm’s reach and hang them on the wall. Adding some decorative items like plants for a different texture and a burst of color along with your utensil will add value to your design.

2. Open shelving:

Think about how you can display your fancy dishware and decorative items. Open shelving with incredible functionality is an excellent option. Tuck some buckets or stools underneath open shelves for a little extra something you may not have had space for, in your small kitchen. It also helps to avoid people from getting too close to the open shelves. You can also use your windows for storage space as well as add few shelves up high where you can display some decorative items and still get your view. The key to keep all the stuff outside the cabinet is to keep them organized and tidy. Group like-minded things together or group them by color to make it all look cohesive. Moreover, Cabinets all above the ceiling maximize your storage spaces automatically.

3. Flooring:

Floor plays a vital role in making your kitchen practical and user friendly. Sometimes small kitchens means you have very limited surface areas. Therefore, you have to find out how to expand your walkways effectively. Light Colors and Bright places always makes the space feel bigger, so opt for light shade while choosing flooring for smaller kitchens.

4. Countertops:

We would all love a kitchen island if room allows that, Island will provide much needed surface area as well as storage space, additional sitting or both. If you do not have enough space for an island in your kitchen, you may add a folding table. A folding table is as functional as an island. Many foldable tables have tops that can be adjusted to change their height, position, shape, or size according to your needs.

5. Color and design:

Bold colored kitchen becomes a real conversation starter and any bold color will make your kitchen a focal point no matter what your kitchen size is. You will actually forget how small your kitchen is when you catch a vibe with bold color. On the other hand, white will always make the space feel larger, so an all-white kitchen will give you that larger feeling.

Flat paneled cabinet doors will also make space look larger because it has less detail to focus on. Using mirrors in your kitchen will open things visually as well. You can add mirrors to the cabinet fronts or add a mirrored backsplash on one side of your kitchen. It is a way to fool your eyes by reflecting more light while also giving you the illusion of more space beyond.

Kitchens are the most popular to renovate. Choosing beautiful finishes and fixtures for your new kitchen is one thing, but if you get the layout wrong, it won’t function as well as you want it to. A kitchen remodel is a great investment, and it pays off by improving function and boosting your home’s value. It’s easy to get wrapped up dreaming about colors, selections, and other design esthetics, but it’s extremely important not to put finishes before a function. When your design is well planned and thought out you can avoid making common kitchen design mistakes. These common mistakes people make when designing and decorating a kitchen.

Countertops

Let’s talk about the countertops, a common design mistake is choosing a countertop that does not meet your functional needs. Think about your lifestyle and the people who live in the home before selecting a countertop. It is a sad fact that some designs look incredible in a showroom or Pinterest but in reality they are not just that compatible with your day-to-day lifestyle. This is especially true for your floors and countertops. Choose a durable and budget friendly porcelain instead, that mimics the look of your favorite marble veining. Love the hardness of granite but want something that requires low maintenance then go for quartz for a modern look with uniform color.

Backsplash

Every kitchen needs a quality kitchen backsplash. They protect walls from wet spills, make it easier to clean up messes from cookers and countertops, and add color patterns in your personalized design of your kitchen. If you choose a tile, make sure you source matching grout that blends in well unless your design intends for high contrast. Be prepared to clean all your grout lines if you specify smaller tiles. If you do not go for the backsplash with full height slab and span the distance between the base cabinet and upper cabinet, you need at least 3 inches of backsplash for easy cleanup.

Finishes

Another common mistake in the list is opting for impractical finishes. Intricate designs carved or even three-dimensional tiles look fabulous in any kind of kitchen but when it comes to cleaning around all those nooks and crannies, it can be very hectic to get all the grease off. For preparation and cooking areas look for durable materials that are easy to wipe down, preferably with the flat or non-textured surface.

Paint

Picking a poor quality paint is a wrong move. You absolutely have to prime the walls before painting or else the heat and humidity in the kitchen will peel that top layer right off. Make sure the product that you choose is resilient to the daily wear and tear that kitchens endure. Use paint that is resistant to grease and will withstand regular washing and wiping. Anything with slight sheen like satin, eggshell or semi-gloss will be a lot easier to wipe down than anything with no shine like flat or matte.

Flooring

Avoid laying down the wrong floors. Kitchen area is a busy, high traffic and wet area so you want to specify a finish that is durable and has an anti-slip finish. Thin and cheap materials can’t bear the weight of heavy appliances so you need to look for something tough. Super smooth tile will be slippery once you spill water on it. Look for waterproof or water resistant resilient flooring. The newer types of engineered wood and laminate all come with a water resistant finish.

Open Shelving

Most common mistake is going on board with open shelving. Open shelves look fabulous in the kitchen especially, if you have some impressive dishware to display. But having a visual access to everything can also look clutter plus your kitchenware will easily get the dust if you don’t use it every day. Include a mixture of open and close doors storage

Cabinets Refacing

Major mistake, overspending on things that you do not see. Before undergoing a kitchen remodel, see if you can reuse anything. Take a look at your base cabinets and see if they are in good shape. Most of the time base cabinets are still structurally sound but the face is a little bit dated or more traditional than what you are going for. In this case, all you need to do is customize new door panels or look for prefabricated doors in the sizes that you need. It will give you a completely new look for the fraction of the cost

Are you tired of looking at your old-fashioned house? Do you believe that it desperately needs a remodelling? Well remodelling your house might look like a quest that you would love to go on but you could easily lose your track, and losing your way on this journey is really common if you don’t follow certain steps that could help you glide through this journey. 

Budgeting

Make a realistic budget before even lifting a hammer and make sure that you don’t go overboard. Budgeting is the central part of this plan and you need to be as close to precise as possible or it will drain you dry. Add an extra contingency fund for any unexpected costs which you would expect to pop-up later-on because you have to be prepared for unexpected problems which will certainly show-up once you start. So be prepared for them instead of being annoyed when they pop-up because this is part of the process.

Research

Do your detailed research about every single detail that will go into your renovation and look-up the internet for the best available prices for every detail. Go with the economical stuff but make sure it is viable and has good reviews or else you would have to buy the same product again which would really upset your budget. Take help from social sites like Pinterest or have a chat with people who have gone through the process of remodelling their houses and ask them about the challenges they faced during this process.

Create an Out-lay

Plan ahead and create an out-lay of the structure of your design and ask yourself the question about what you really need versus what you merely want. This will help you create an out-lay of the plan and the lines on which you will work. Knowing the end-goal or the image of your end-product is really vital because it aids you to avoid making any impulsive decision at the last second.

Find the Right Person to do it

Now, you have to decide whether you want to go DIY or either you want to hire a contractor to do your work for you. Hiring a contractor is a safer option as it saves you a lot of time and work. Ask the contractor for references and his previous work so you know that you’re working with a professional. No question is wrong, so just ask questions and help him imagine your vision for the renovation and go with your gut feeling.

Plan a Renovation-Free Zone

Before your renovation kicks-off, plan a renovation-free place or room in your house which your family could use to unwind from all the racket and days-long work. Remember to keep all the important stuff like microwave or pots in this place so your family could at least eat at one place because once the work kicks-off, your freedom in the house is going to be wiped out for a week or two.

Plan Clean-ups

After a long day’s work, it can be really enticing to leave the mess behind and go to sleep. But this causes a lot of delay in work because the mess keeps on piling up resulting in tools or other accessories getting lost. So, at the end of every day, schedule a clean-up and your work will speed-up considerably without any needless delays.

Choosing the Right Colour of Paint

Here comes the fun part, choosing the colour palette for your walls. This could go wrong really quick without you even noting and you can’t even go back once you have started. So, to avoid making such an error by consulting an expert and by doing a lot of research. While planning, imagine what colour would go-along with your refashioning and be really precise about it because going wrong at this step would cost you a fortune.

1.Where do I hope to make changes?

Figure out what you want early on, this will save you the small fortune on interior designers and contractors. If you are up for the challenge it’s fun to teach yourself how to design and decorate stuff. Identify the spaces you want to make changes to and rank them on highest to lowest priority. Creating a warm living room is usually the most common priority. Another personalized zone is the bathroom which is often overlooked. Living rooms can also be tackled while the bedroom is getting done but kitchens are time consuming so we recommend doing them last

2.What am I trying to accomplish with this change?

 Before you begin having a clear idea of what the most important thing in your plan is, whether it’s the flooring or walls or decorations etc. Only then you can decide on the best route that you can take within your budget and get the luxury interior you dream of.

visuals within your budget that will be practical and also boot up your place.

Either look for reviews online or by word of mouth. You can also ask them for portfolios for your peruse. Keep in mind to work with people who make you feel comfortable and are aligned with your vision. While working with an interior design firm you might ask them for contractors as they have one of the best ones on board. 

5.When do you hope to start and end ?

Create an ideal schedule from start to end to keep you on track and organized. Remember to remain flexible with the timeline as we never know how much time something will take when issues arise. You are bringing your dream house to life and that wont happen in one fell swoop. So, let the process take its due time and enjoy instilling personality into your house.

We wish you great luck with your design project and would love to see some pictures of the home decors you have done around your house.
