Room Makeovers
Refresh, renew, and renovate your space with a full room makeover!
There comes a time when our well-loved and well-lived in spaces need a well-deserved makeover from top to bottom! Not every space requires a full overhaul but it is a good way to lighten up a room, dispose of clutter, add stylish pieces, and revive the spirit of a neglected space.
Important and sentimental existing pieces can look inspired when integrated into a new look. Incorporate new colours, key accessories and choose comfortable, classic furniture that will offer style, function and durability for years to come.
Before & after photo inspiration
Before: All-glass entry doors and shiny floor tiles were typical for the era of the original home.
After: Tall, wood double doors with slim, inset glass channels and linear handles make a grand statement. Stacked stone and white, wide-plank, oak floor enhance the welcoming entrance. Visit Mid-Century Modernized to see the whole home transformation.
Before: The dining room carpeting and furniture dated the space and made the room feel gloomy.
After: Everything except the glass table top was replaced. Now, the dining room pedestal table looks like a sculpted work of art in glass and porcelain-wrapped wood. It perfectly reflects the glass and branch-like chandelier above. Visit Mid-Century Modernized to see the whole home transformation.
Before: A walk-through pantry to the original dining room also housed an office space.
After: Now it’s a proper butler’s pantry with a full sink and storage. Visit Mid-Century Modernized to see the whole home transformation.
Before: California wooden shutters obscured the view of the river.
After: floor-to-ceiling drapes to make the room feel taller and wider. Visit Mid-Century Modernized to see the whole home transformation.
