A condo renovation can give homeowners a unique opportunity to tailor a modern, trendy space to fit their individual style. Whether you are planning on renovating your entire condo, or simply a bathroom, it is important to consider the unique characteristics that a condo has to offer while planning.
Our team at Genesis Construction has put together the perfect guide for completing your condo renovation.
Condo Renovation Checklist
- Tailor your design plan to fit a small space
Condo renovation can mean getting creative with limited space. This is one of the reasons that condos are associated with modern decor, as homeowners are constantly looking for fun, innovative ways to make their space appear larger.
- Consider an open concept
An open concept is not for everyone, but it can be a great option for enlarging a small space and making your condo feel bright and airy. Knocking down walls between your kitchen and living area will give you more flexibility with positioning furniture and mixing up your decor.
- Experiment with colors and materials
Depending on your style, various colors and materials can make all the difference in a condo. If you have large windows with a view worth showing off, lighter colors on the walls and floors may draw the eye to your windows. As condo owners often seek to create a sleek look, contrasting colors and furniture made of trendy materials such as glass or driftwood can do a good job of elevating your space into the 21st century.
- Incorporate accent pieces
In small areas, accent pieces can make a big design statement without taking up too much valuable space. An accent piece such as a bold kitchen countertop or a unique lighting design can be all you need to set your space apart from your neighbors and express your unique style.
- Choose flooring that will expand your space
By avoiding dark floors, and oversized rugs, condo owners can renovate their small spaces with an illusion that the space is larger than it is.
- Divide space with furniture
Many condo owners are afraid to add walls and dividers to their homes during condo renovations. By getting creative and using bookshelves, bed frames, and other wall-like features to a room, you can section off your home without taking up too much space or feeling claustrophobic.
