When placing furniture in a room with one angled wall you must mimic that angle at least once.

We are often asked at a consultation, “how do I make my home feel more up-to-date?” Sometimes, it isn’t what you own but how what you already own is arranged.

With the Redesign Training offered at Agricola Redesign, we are able to see your rooms and furnishings with fresh ideas.

Here’s a before photo of a client who wanted to update the look of their home.

Working to make our clients happy is our goal

Did you know that every room’s shape has a certain way furnishings should be placed? For example, if the room is rectangular then furnishings should not be up against the walls because it will make the room look longer and more narrow.

Check out these tips for updating your home’s look:

• If the room is a rectangular shape, consider putting furnishings on an angle.
• Give your dining room chairs a fresh new appearance by replacing the fabric on the seat cushions.
• Paint an old light fixture to give it a new look. You may also consider replacing dated lamp shades for a fresh,  look.
• Rather than replacing pieces in your home, simply repurpose them. You could paint an old side table and turn it into a nightstand.
• Replace accessories like a lantern, tray, or decorative candles.
