If you prepare for a renovation half-heartedly, you will have to do another one later. It will be good if it ends with just re-gluing the wallpaper. It will be worse if you have to mark out the place for the sockets and switches again.
Experts have named 6 renovation mistakes that will make you cry when looking at the results.
1. Pictures in magazines
Only in magazines do repair results look perfect. In reality, large-scale repairs can affect at least the power supply, heating, ventilation systems, etc. It is also important to imagine what defects may arise along the way.
2. Storage space
The ideal interior in the picture may exclude such important but everyday elements as a wardrobe for outerwear, shoe cabinets, etc. That is, what is not in the picture, in a normal situation after renovation, for some reason ends up in plain sight.
3. Lighting
It is clear that a chandelier on the ceiling copes with its task 100%, but the room will not become cozy from this. It is necessary to provide additional lighting in the form of sconces or spotlights.
4. Sockets
There is one rule: after the layout of household appliances has been planned, the number of sockets has been calculated, you need to add one more. It certainly won't be superfluous.
5. Color
A fashionable interior can become boring. This happens when the solution is made in one color. Bright and contrasting elements are not a panacea either. Therefore, it is so important to choose the right color scheme in accordance with the functional purpose of the room.
6. Load
It is important that the wallpaper pattern or other elements match the pattern on the furniture and other small details. It is best to keep the number of such details to a minimum. And if necessary, you can add some kind of art object.
