Wall Color – Using a slightly gray color rather than traditional white is great for creating a classic yet refreshing look. The light gray makes a home feel bigger and brighter. Ceilings, baseboards, walls are all painted the same color.
Marble – It’s no secret that white Carrera marble has been a sought after interior design element for ages but keeping it consistent throughout the entire home is key. (counter tops, back splashes, bathtubs and showers)
Wide Openings Into Rooms – Large entry ways and spacious staircases.
Flat Walls – Smooth, non-textured walls without crown molding.
Antique Doors – Reclaimed items in a home, such as antique doors, is like a special piece of art. Look through local antique shops for antique interior doors.
Wood Beams – Wood beamed ceilings give any home a special “WOW” factor. Decorative beams give a new home a sense of character.
Sisal Carpeting – Sisal instead of traditional carpet creates the feel of simple elegance in a living space
Bunk Bed Nook – Desk top computers have been replaced with iPads and laptops; there is no need for a built in computer desk. Now buyers are opting for a bunk bed nook that can be used for sleepovers. It reminds the kids of camp.
Metal framed front door – Metal doors communicate a quiet elegance. Most popular is a slender profile with expanses of glass.
