Tips
When planning a house remodel, it can be tempting to skip to the exciting stage of choosing new paint colors, fixtures and fittings, but in order for any renovation to go smoothly, there are several things to think about before you even begin.
KITCHEN
Choosing a backsplash for your kitchen is a big decision. With the amount of time you spend in the kitchens, it's something that should not only inspire you and bring joy to your otherwise mundane tasks like cooking and cleaning – it should function well too.
FIREPLACE
Remember these tips from the MANA before you light your hearth.
If possible, keep a window cracked open while the fire is burning.
Smaller pieces of wood placed on a grate burn faster and produce less smoke.
The chimney should be checked annually by a professional.
Best Flooring Tip
As you’re laying out your floors, place rugs in any room with furniture that can be used as a focal point. It will draw people into the center of the room.

Consider changing up pillows or other décor items to keep things exciting year-round.
CHOOSE THE TYPE OF BATHROOM
Bathrooms come in a wide range of shapes, sizes, and layouts. Chances are, you probably won't change the type of bathroom when you go to remodel. However, it's a good idea to look at all your options before you set your ideas in stone (or grout!). An experienced interior designer can help you see possibilities that you might have missed. For instance, a cramped half bath could be transformed into a luxurious master suite just by borrowing some space from a walk-in closet or bedroom.
