After what seemed like a really long winter and spring, summer is finally here, and we can all look forward to the longer days and (hopefully) warmer, brighter weather. For many of us, our thoughts naturally turn to home improvements at this time of the year. This is especially true in 2022 where travel chaos is on an international scale. As a result, the idea of having a staycation and spending our holiday time upgrading key rooms in our home is more attractive than ever. If you are planning on doing some tasteful upgrades and home improvements this summer, this article will provide some top design tips for three of the most important rooms in your home.

The living room

For many homeowners, the living room is one of the key rooms in the house and serves a variety of uses on a daily basis. In the mornings, we can get a quick recap of the news as we prepare for work. After a long day in our jobs and a satisfying home-cooked meal, nothing beats relaxing with loved ones in the living room and unwinding from the stresses of the day together.

When looking to upgrade this vital room, prime consideration should be given to the furniture. Any living room can be instantly transformed and brought up to date with high-quality modern furniture such as that sold by Ligne Roset Chelsea. As with most things in life, quality counts and ensures that your furniture will look elegant and stylish for years to come. Once you have decided on some tasteful furniture upgrades, it makes sense to redecorate your walls to complement the new additions to the room. Ideally, the wallpaper or paint you choose will work in harmony with your furniture. If you are unsure of what colour schemes to choose for the living room, here are some of the most popular and modern colour schemes for living rooms for 2022.

Upgrade your bathroom

Bathrooms can often become overlooked in many home improvement plans and as a result, start to look out of date and tired in terms of design. The bathroom is an important space for relaxation and can help you to truly unwind after a hard day’s work. Modifications that allow you to benefit from improved levels of relaxation in the bathroom include fitting spa-type jets into your existing shower or bath. These can instantly transform any bathroom and make bath or shower time something to truly relish. Add in some house plants to aid relaxation and improve air quality, and your bathroom will be well on the way to becoming a relaxation haven.

The kitchen

The kitchen is one of the busiest rooms ofthe house and can be a hive of activity throughout the day. As a result, it is easy for the kitchen to become a little worn or aged simply because of the amount of use this space gets. Depending on the condition of your kitchen, you may opt for a full renovation, or just some subtle improvements to bring it up to date with modern themes. Key upgrades for kitchens that need less attention include repainting the kitchen units in modern colour schemes and upgrading work surfaces that are starting to show their age. Invest in high-quality LED lighting for key work areas to boost the overall appeal of this room and allow safe working when preparing food.
