A Zen Start to the New Year: Creating Peaceful Spaces in Your Whole Home Remodel
As the new year begins, many of us are looking for ways to create more meaning and peace in our lives. A whole home remodel that dramatically transforms your environment is one way to live with more serenity on a daily basis. Elements of your whole home design can be specifically planned to create areas ideal for alone time, quiet reflection and connection with nature.
For a whole home remodel in La Jolla Shores, the connection between the open space inside and the verdant space outside is one of the elements that create a sense of openness and calm in this modern dwelling. High ceilings, abundant lighting and an open floor plan set the stage for simple furnishings, interesting works of art and a compelling fireplace. In the home’s outdoor area, a long bench under a canopy of greenery invites peaceful lounging next to a trickling water feature.
If you’re interested in working with elements of Zen-inspired design for your whole home remodel, here are some concepts to keep in mind:
- Focus on natural, earthy colors
- Emphasize natural light
- Keep furniture simple
- Find a way to incorporate greenery and water elements into your design
- Stay away from clutter for a more calming environment
- Embrace simplicity, with an emphasis on balance and clean lines
A professional design team can help you find ways to express your unique style in the context of Zen-inspired simplicity. With the new year underway, now is the time to be inspired by the many ways a whole home remodel can transform your home and your lifestyle!
