Always go for statement-worthy but comfortable furniture. Do not give precedence to aesthetics over functionality and vice versa. At the end of the day, you’re going to have to use all your furnishings to its better to find the perfect compromise between visuals and pragmatics. If you prefer one over the other, you’ll only have regrets in the aftermath.
2. Go for maximum storage

Never underestimate the power of cluttering. You may think that you’re going to live a fully organized and neat life once the renovation is over, but most of the time it’s only a pipe dream. So it’s better to be prepared and go for maximized storage space during the renovation. Full-sized wardrobes and cabinetry are a great place to start.
3. Respect your lifestyle

Always accommodate your life-styles and habits when renovating your home. If you’re the kind of person who enjoys watching television while working, then go for a combined living area cum study space to accommodate this habit. There is nothing wrong with breaking conventions and being unique. It’s the best way to set your homes apart as well.
4. Go tall

If you’ve got a loft and have some space to spare, then go for double height spaces. They’re great for giving your homes a unique and spacious aesthetic. The tallness is a very attractive design factor that makes most homes look like villas in their own right.
5. Alternating bathroom materials

Bathrooms are usually very straight-laced. Therefore, it is important to add a visual dynamic in their designs. You can accomplish this by using alternating material surfaces on the floors and walls of your bathrooms. These varying materials are able to emulate a diverse effect, which can make your bathrooms look very unique.
