Luxury is an upgraded level of comfort or an extravagant standard of living. It can also be seen as a state of high living, nobility, and sophistication. People often say that luxury doesn’t have to be expensive, but it does require some careful consideration when selecting items for your home and its construction. Today, we want to share how you can incorporate a touch of luxury into your existing home.
Use a Sophisticated Colours for Your Wall Paint
Using a vibrant colour for your wall paint will immediately give your home a luxe feel. If you’re looking to add a bit of class to your home, consider painting your walls in eggshell, taupe or mink. You can also choose to paint your walls in a deep shade of burgundy or navy blue. We always suggest that you use high quality paints such as Benjamin Moore, and that you consult with a professional interior designer to ensure the vibrant colours you’re choosing work with the aesthetic of your home.
We also recommend using a professional painter to ensure that your walls are a perfect finish. We will happily recommend painters and always suggest that potential customers of new paintrers check Google Reviews!
Upgrade Your Lighting
Another way to make your home feel like a dream home is to upgrade your lighting. Replacing lampshades and individual features can instantly brighten up a room. Don’t stop there thoughl you can also upgrade your lighting fixtures and installation to create a modern, luxurious feeling with the use of smart lights, LED RBG lights that have patterns and different “scenes” that create a feeling around your mood.
Upgrading your lighting can also be as simple as choosing new, high-quality bulbs for your existing lighting. Don’t underestimate the difference a quality warm light can make compared to a cold, bright light. You’d be surprised how often homes have cold, kitchen-type lighting in rooms that are meant to be cozy and vice versa!
Install New Carpet & Area Rugs
Carpets are an excellent way to add something special to your home. You can create a luxurious look in any room by adding a plush, new carpet. Look for a high-quality, custom carpet if you want your home to really stand out. This is not an area that you should look to skimp on, as high-quality carpet and the kind you’ll need to remove in a few years is dramatic.
You can easily give your home a luxurious feel by adding a new area rug. A Persian rug, for example, will make a room feel like it’s truly luxurious, and there are many different patterns and colours to choose from that can compliment your existing design choices. Rugs of this nature blend tradition and modern design. To increase the luxury level of your home, consider adding different rugs to spaces and consult with an interior designer for the right size and positioning of your rug.
Update your Furniture
It’s easy to give your home a touch of luxury by upgrading your furniture. If your furniture is dated, it may be time to consider some major changes. This is one of the most overlooked ways people can change their home.
You can buy high-quality furniture from furniture stores directly, or even have custom furniture crafted for the unique needs of your family. If you’re looking for new furniture to upgrade your home, consider starting fresh completely and building around the piece that is the largest. This will make it easier to make complimentary design choices.
Become an Art Admirer
When you want to create a luxurious feel within your home, consider adding high-end art. This is an excellent way to make your home feel more modern and in-touch with the latest trends. You can easily find some high-quality art for your walls and then complete the look by adding some sophisticated artwork to your cabinets.
If you’re working with an interior designer, we suggest seeking their guidance in finding a gallery to choose your artwork from, and even having them make specific suggestions of pieces that will work in your unique space. No more “Live, Laugh, Love” signs from any old store!
