Don’t be mistaken by thinking traditional means old. On the contrary, traditional style attractively combines architectural elements that have evolved from popular trends.
Design - Garage
Today’s garages are more than just utilitarian; they’ve become an integral part of your home’s architecture that can beautifully enhance its overall prestige and character.
Your garage is normally used for protecting your car in the winter and storing tools and some belongings. But why not put this room of your home to a better use this summer? After all, there are numerous ways to enjoy this space that stays cool during the hottest days, if it is well insulated.
Taking on a project like changing your garage door isn’t as costly or complicated as you think. If you have a single garage door, let’s say 9' X 7', it might only cost you a little more than $1000 to do it. Not more than that?
When renovating, often the focus and dollars are given to achieving that “designer look” for the interior of our homes. We forget that the first impressions are made by the exterior of the house. We’ve all heard of “curb appeal”, especially when getting ready to sell your home. However, curb appeal should not be just for resale purposes as it can set the tone for the overall aesthetic of your home.
A second garage isn’t something everybody has. Those who are lucky enough to have the extra space are sometimes stumped with what to do with it. That second garage can add value to your property not only for storage, but as a special space for entertaining or special interests.
In every neighborhood some homes command more attention than others. Eye-catching aspects of these homes might be an individual item or a combination of items, including: a beautiful front porch, a clean and interesting garage door, breathtaking landscaping, or interesting walkways and driveways.
Your driveway literally and figuratively welcomes your family and visitors to your home. There are several ways to make your driveway more appealing, possibly becoming the envy of your neighborhood.
You’ve had enough of your cluttered garage… The next step it to clean it up, but where to start? Don’t worry – you are far from alone in this situation. Here are some websites that will help lead you out of your predicament.
We have “smart” cars, “smart” TVs, “smart” phones – our everyday life objects are more connected than ever, allowing us to go beyond what we thought could be possible. Who would have thought that one day you could control your garage door with a tap on your smart phone?
There’s plenty of things that people do with their garages to transform the space into something more useful than a place where you put your car, yard tools and old buckets of paint from the 80s.
Some turn the garage into a home theatre zone while others decide to create a garage rock jam space. If you or your family happens to be into dance, there’s no reason why you can’t set up a dance studio in your garage if you have enough space to do so.
