The outbreak of Covid-19 shapes us in many ways. We see a bunch of changes in the day-to-day operations of the world. All our basic tasks came to an end last year. We became familiar with the concept, i.e., work from home. According to a study, 36.2 million Americans will be working remotely by the end of 2025. Thus, the renovation projects will change a lot in the coming years. Today, we will discuss the home improvement trends of 2021.
During the pandemic, people feel the necessity to maximize their home spaces. Bedrooms became dull and the homeowners are improving their basements now. A basement remodel project is an excellent way of creating a recreational room. Similarly, many people spend time in their gardens as it will give you an outdoor vibe without leaving the house. There was a time when garden and party were two synonymous words; now, you can use it as your dining room as well. Now, the best time to renovate your garden is the early months of the year so that the flowers can start to bloom by spring.
You know a dining room is the heart of a house. The dining room is not only a dining room anymore; it is now considered a multitasking room. You are missing a lot if you are using your dining room for only eating purposes. You can easily place a marble dining room table and use it for various purposes. Moreover, if you are on a tight budget, then you can consider upgrading your storage solutions only. You can try sideboards or pull-out drawers that can double as storage and seating.
If you want to give your dull room a new look, then a statement wall is the way to follow. It does not matter whether it is wallpaper or some bold color; statement walls are getting popular every day. Similarly, you can put a fresh coat of paint in your room as well. Warmer-toned colors are trending nowadays. Colors like soothing greens, vibrant cobalt, blush pinks, pale blues, etc., are hotcakes now and you can choose any of them.
According to Zillow, having a room dedicated for the home office is a big bonus. Many people would like to continue work from home even after the pandemic ends. You can decorate a guest bedroom or a finished basement for this purpose. A separate room is essential to concentrate and separate work life from personal life. Besides, you can use this room as a ‘Zoom room”. This room will help you in the long run if you are to join in video conferences regularly. All you have to do is put an aesthetically pleasing background for these calls. You may want to find mounted lights to help with lighting for your calls or the room aesthetics overall. Lighting is as important as the furniture!
Among other things, self-care is the thing that Covid-19 teaches us most. It is high time you should vow to keep your home clean, comfortable, and uncluttered. Just by being neat and clean, you can fight little germs. Similarly, you can do some basic home workouts to keep yourself fit. According to research, nine in 10 Americans who exercise regularly say that they would continue home workouts even after the pandemic. So, you can fix a corner or room for workout purposes and start your workout journey today.
Finally, these home improvement projects are inexpensive and will not take much of your time to complete. So, what are you waiting for?
