How To Enjoy Your Investment
Every space in and outside of your home should have a specific function. Whether that is an underutilized closet, a quirky nook or an extra-long hallway, there are endless options for how to functionally utilize these spaces to make the most out of your investment.
If you’re lucky enough to have an underutilized closet, this is the perfect location for a coffee bar, wine station or a general beverage center depending on your interests!
Sometimes spaces have random nooks! Think of these as cozy out coves for a built-on workspace or homework station for the kids.
Did you know that most staircases have storage space underneath? This is especially helpful if you’re someone who likes to decorate their home for seasons or holidays, play sports and have an outpour of equipment or have a pet to pamper! Speaking of hidden storage, it’s also smart to incorporate these into window seats, banquettes, and benches.
Long hallways can cause confusion when it comes to design as they can look blank and boring. This is the perfect opportunity to create a mudroom drop zone with hooks, cubbies, and charging stations for busy families. Or if too slim of a space, gallery wall of art to add some design elements to your home!
Unused corner? No! That’s a cozy reading retreat fit with built in shelving to store all the books in world!
A guest room that may sit unused for months can be the perfect place to double as a home office with multifunctional furniture like a vanity/desk or bed with storage underneath for office supplies. Similarly to a guest bedroom, a dining room can often sit unattended to. This is a great opportunity to flex as an entertaining space, gaming area or wine room as it’s an entertainment focal point.
Overwhelmed with your counter clutter? Repurpose an oversized pantry section into a small appliance garage. And don’t forget your pets! This is a great concealed space for a pet feeding station with food storage and built-in water access.
Remember, design is never one note and most spaces in homes can be and should be, multi-functional. Don’t know where to start? Call us at 973-989-8249 NJ; 908-229-3787 FL.
