When you finally decide that you want to begin a complete home renovation or a custom home build, the idea can be quite exciting. With all of the freedom you’re given, the options are truly endless when it comes to how you want your home to look. With all of this limitless freedom may come confusion, however. Confusion about where to start, confusion about what will look good and what won’t, confusion about what designs can really make your place stand out.
If you’re looking to implement some unique home features that will bring your place to the next level, be sure to check out the information we here at Lions Den Construction have come up with below.
Add a Hidden Room
Sometimes, you just need a home away from home. When you have both the space and the money, a hidden room to escape from the stressors of your everyday life can be really nice. Whether you want this room to be a place to read, play, watch TV or just relax, this room addition is a great way to unwind and de-stress from an otherwise busy and chaotic day. You can make this room even more hidden with a bookshelf door or a hidden door inside of a closet, making the escapism aspect of the room even more apparent.
Install Smart Technology
With the newest advances in technology, what once was considered a thing of the future is now a reality. Smart home technology works to increase the functionality and comfort of your home with the simplest of actions and orders. The best part? These smart home functions (such as dimming or brightening your lights, turning on music, closing and opening curtains, turning on the sink, etc.) can all be done from the simple touch of your phone or tablet device! Now more than ever, technology has taken a huge leap and it’s time to take advantage of these amazing features so we can live a more convenient, comfortable life.
Create An Outdoor Oasis
When building a custom home, one of the most common spaces people tend to glaze over is that of outdoor design. While this can be easily forgotten due to the placement of where this area is, a beautiful backyard space is important if you want to truly enjoy your home and all it has to offer. This is especially true if you’re someone who spends a significant amount of time in the home rather than out at work or school. When things get suffocating and you need that fresh air, creating a space where you can truly bask in the outdoors beauty is important.
Some of the best ways to transform your outdoor space include:
- Building a deck + fence
- Installing a hot tub
- Adding a swinging chair/hammock
- Placing down a table + chairs for an outdoor dining experience
- Creating a roofed area for shade and protection from inclement weather
- Adding a bunch of greenery + flowers
- Setting up a birdfeeder
- Creating a garden
Whilst these are just a few of the many things you can do to your outdoor space, these features really add to the beauty of an outdoor space and make it stand out amongst the other outdoor areas nearby.
