There are so many ways we can find inspirational ideas for our properties these days and as I am always interested in Interior design and Architecture I have links to websites such as Houzz and Pinterest. The regular updates I get from these sites are fascinating and make me want to transform aspects of my home that are yet to be completed.
A refreshing feature of ideas sites is the variety of property types featured, often home magazines feature a particular focus on contemporary or traditional homes. However, inspirational property and interior ideas websites usually feature compilation images based on say exterior doors, windows or garden rooms for example, which helps when renovating or embarking on building projects.
If you are about to start repairing or renovating the exterior of your property then I would suggest you search through these sites as part of your research before making firm decisions about the look of your own property. Its not a matter of copying others ideas it’s a very sensible way of seeing what looks good on a similar house.
Don’t be put off by seeing grand properties which do not seem to relate to your own. I suggest focussing on particular detailing such as a door and the placing of the fitted hardware to maybe the external door canopy and right down to the Wisteria growing around the door. It’s amazing to get down to the intricate details which really make something attractive and pleasing to the eye.
