    Custom Homes: What are the Benefits of Owning One?

    Your house is more than just a building – it is your home; a place where you get away from all the pressure and stress from your job, and where you make lifelong memories with your family. Since you will spend a lot of time in your home relaxing with loved ones, enjoying hobbies, and entertaining friends, your home needs to be a special place which will suit your unique needs. It should also reflect your personal style and it should be something that fits your lifestyle.

     

    Here are some benefits of having a custom home built:

     

    #01. CUSTOMIZED OPTIONS

    Building a custom home is all about the power of making choices. Since your home will be customized, you have the freedom to choose everything you want – wall and floor coverings, appliances, custom cabinetry, trim, and amenities. If you are not a fan of granite and you want hand-painted tiling in your kitchen instead, you have the power to have it. Love natural lights? Skylights in every room can be installed! From interior to exterior, floor to ceiling, you are now in charge of every detail that goes into creating your own home!

     

    #02. PERSONAL PREFERENCE

    Your custom home will be a direct reflection of your taste, style, and personality. By working with Liv Developments, you will have the opportunity to create a home that will literally be the “home of your dreams”. For instance, you are an art collector – your entire home can be designed to give emphasis to your prized pieces, from specialized lighting to gallery walls. Your furnishings will fit just perfectly because your home will be designed to accommodate all of them.

     

    #03. FUNCTIONALITY

    Your custom home will also be designed entirely around you and this includes your floor plan. So, instead of working around a pre-existing home’s floor plan, or having such limited options with semi-custom home, your floor plan with a custom-built home will be designed to maximize and take advantage of every usable space. Your home will then have the function and flexibility to eliminate any unused space and adapt to your lifestyle and needs. Whether you prefer separate, defined rooms or an open floor plan, it is your call.

     

    #04. MATERIAL QUALITY

    When you buy a semi-custom home or a pre-existing one, you do not have much control over the quality of materials being used. The grade of materials will vary from room to room, and it usually includes prefabricated lower-quality materials. Good custom builders such as the experts in Liv Developments only work with trusted tradesmen who are known for providing high-quality materials and performance. With a custom-built home, you can rest assure that it is constructed with only the best products, brands, and materials.

    Thinking of remodeling your home next year? Then now might be the perfect time to start planning! Some homeowners think that a home should feel like a home regardless of its decorations, it is still important to take care of every bit of your home.

     

    Here are some of the home trends for 2018 that you might want to consider for your upcoming home:

     

    BRASS-LOVIN’

    Brass might a simple piece of metal, but it definitely has the capability to make your home shine as bright as the sun with its lively colour! This trend may be considered to be one of the outdated home decors, but it appeared again in 2016, and it is expected to so again in 2018. If you have brass in your current home, then you should celebrate – you already have a trendy décor in your home before it was even trendy!

     

    BLACK AND WHITE

    Are you fond of having an interior design solely in black and white? YOU ARE NOT ALONE! This combination has been around for a very long time and it is ranked to be one of the top trends that will just never go out of style. It may look vintage to some, but that is actually the reason why it reflects a sense of elegance and sophistication. The bottom line is, no matter how the trends of colours fluctuate over time, black and white will always remain the best classical blend!

     

    OVERSIZED FURNITURE

    The trend with new homeowners nowadays is that they have taken space into consideration more than the actual design of their furniture pieces. Vast spaces have become more significant in terms of the trendiest interior designs. Having oversized furniture, however, is not actually something that you should ignore. Trendsetters have said that in 2018, oversized furniture will be trendy again. Not only do they provide comfort, they also create an elegantly antique atmosphere that lovers of classical themes will surely love!

     

    ARTISTIC WALLS

    Having a lot of pictures hung on the walls is something considered to be outdated or something of the past. However, we still believe that hanging pictures on the wall should always be a thing, and it should never go out of style! Whether you fill your walls with images of your close relatives or original artwork, those photos will aid in giving your bare wall a nice accent. It also helps to boost up your room’s overall design – even if they are smaller than other rooms.

    New Home Design Trends to Try

    Imagine coming home after a long day’s work, sitting down in your living room, looking around, and thinking to yourself, “I would like a nicer living room to come home to!” or “This area could definitely use a little remodeling.” If you are anything like most homeowners today, you probably want to keep up with the trends, right?

     

    Whether you want a new trendy home that you can move into, or just simply redecorating for a new look, here are some home design trends you should consider:

     

    The Loft

    Nowadays, more and more homes are starting to incorporate lofts. These types have an open space higher up in the house which can be converted for any kind of use. Your loft can be turned into a reading nook, a place for your guests to have intimate conversations, or even a place for your kids to have their own creative space. What makes lofts even more fun is the way you get to it. You can spice up your loft by turning a bookcase into a staircase! This makes it more fun for the kids and still accessible for adults.

     

    Outdoor Showers

    A refreshing space you would appreciate stepping into on a hot summer’s day (or really, when you just feel like it) is the outdoor shower. Nothing is more pleasing than taking a shower to the sounds of nature. Taking a shower in your own private garden is now a possibility! You can even get a nice tan while cooling down. Outside showers are not only luxurious, but they are actually practical, too. Before hopping into the pool, you can now rinse off with an outdoor shower. After swimming, you can simply wash off the chlorine in a more convenient manner.

     

    Minimal Tubs

    A number of people admit that they do not use their bathtubs too often. When they do, however, they prefer it to be in a more secluded area. The bathtub is no longer the adorning feature in the center of your bathroom. The freestanding tub is excellent for this. It is not just practical in terms of placement, but it is also classy and vintage. You can have it anywhere in your bathroom – it can be up against a window, or you can place it in a more private corner. Having a freestanding tub also maximizes the space in the bathroom!

     

    Once you have found the perfect home, or when you have finished your remodeling projects, you can finally sit back and enjoy. Now, coming home from work is a whole new experience that will make you feel good the moment you step into the space. Visit our website today and let us help you have that contentment!
