Accessories in your home must be handpicked with a lot of care as they can leave a lasting impression on the minds of your visitors. However, they don’t just serve the purpose of aesthetics but they also have a significant role to play in increasing the efficiency and safety of the space. From door handles, mirrors, lights or upholstery- each of these are very important in defining your style while also enhancing the usability of the room. Different factors like the budget, age group of the inhabitants, activities to be undertaken in each space and many more factors must be considered while choosing the accessories for the different parts of your home. Here are some points to remember as you choose the accessories for your dream home:
From wardrobe door handles to handles for doors and windows, choosing the right size, design and finish can be a game changer for you. When you have kids around, the placement of handles should be accessible to them, while also ensuring that it doesn’t hurt them while they move around. Likewise, handles and support should be placed appropriately for senior citizens in the house. Opt for finishes that align with the rest of the colour scheme and choose good quality, anti tarnish handles that are strong and long lasting. From rose gold to matte black- there are many options to choose from and if you are someone who doesn’t mind splurging you can also go antique finishes and unique commissioned handles that are sure to be conversation starters.
Pairing the right finish with the laminates that you have chosen brings together the whole space and makes them look like one entity. Merino Laminates offers a wide array of finishes that you can pair with fittings of different kinds to custom make your furniture and storage units.
A very important part of every home, mirrors are often overlooked and not much thought goes into choosing and placing the mirrors. However, using mirrors wisely can not only make them highly functional, but they can also make your space look luxurious and lavish. Large, well framed mirrors can be placed in foyers, passages connecting rooms, dining areas etc. Pair these with laminated walls and panels to enhance the design of your space. You can also add full length mirrors in your dressing area or walk-in closet to make the space look larger.
Lights are the most important accessory in your home! Gone are the days when we placed basic fluorescent tube lights mindlessly. It is crucial to understand the function of each space and a strategic layering of ambient and task lighting must be undertaken. You can choose from pendant lights, chandeliers and concealed lights to give your space a sophisticated look. Adding lights over paintings, sculptures, in alcoves and on accent walls to create focal points across the home is also a great way to give your home a designer touch. There are so many options in the market today that you are sure to find lights in every budget and to suit every aesthetic.
Another crucial and highly functional accessory is the upholstery in your house. The material you use for your sofas, curtains, cushions and the rugs you choose fall under this category. The function of the space, age of the inhabitants, frequency of usage etc., help you determine the right upholstery. You can go for lush black out curtains, paired with light dreamy curtains for your living room, whereas, you can go for mid to complete black out curtains for your bedrooms. Sheer curtains are preferred for study areas, dining etc where you would want to welcome a lot of natural light through the day and privacy isn’t a big concern.
The material you choose for your sofas should be sturdy, easy to clean and comfortable to sit on, for long hours. The colours and textures you choose should be in alignment with the colours and design of the rest of the space. It is always best advised to choose minimal patterns for sofas and accentuate them with quirky cushions.
Rugs for your home should be thick and have anti-skid finish on the lower side to ensure the safety of the users. Again, it is best to opt for rugs with minimal designs to make your space look large, pleasant and clutter free! Make sure to avoid too many colours, textures and designs in your upholstery as too many designs can make the space look cluttered and claustrophobic.
Sanitary fittings like the taps, kitchen sinks, washbasins used in your home say a lot about your preference for style and comfort. Always opt for the best brands in your budget and go for products that will not rust or leak over time. Today, the market is full of beautiful products even in the sanitary section, to the extent that they become signature pieces in a home!
We hope that these simple tips help you create the dream space that you have always aspired for. It is crucial to layer each element mentioned above carefully to bring them together to build a space that is unique, elegant and user friendly .
