You’ve tackled the big projects—remodeled the kitchen, renovated the bathroom, and maybe even added some curb appeal. But is your home truly finished? For homeowners who think they’ve completed their renovations, there are plenty of lesser-known upgrades that can further elevate your space, adding value, functionality, and style. These are the kinds of details that take your home from great to exceptional, and Shawluxe is here to help you bring these ideas to life.
Here are 5 more things you can do to elevate your home after completing major renovations:
1. Custom Built-Ins for Storage and Style
While most homes come with standard storage options, adding custom built-ins can completely transform the functionality and appearance of your living spaces. From bookshelves to entertainment centers, built-ins allow you to maximize your storage while maintaining a sleek, tailored look that seamlessly blends with the rest of your home.
Why It’s Worth It:
Custom built-ins not only add storage but also increase your home’s resale value. Prospective buyers love functional storage solutions, and built-ins offer a sophisticated, polished look that sets your home apart.
What We Can Do:
At Shawluxe, we specialize in crafting beautiful, functional built-ins that match your home’s style and needs. Whether it’s a wall-to-wall library or a compact office nook, our expert carpenters will create a custom solution that fits your space perfectly.
2. Accent Walls with Custom Paneling or Textures
You’ve probably heard of accent walls with bold paint colors, but have you considered adding depth with custom paneling or textured walls? Options like wood slat walls, beadboard, shiplap, or even 3D tile designs can instantly upgrade a room without the need for a complete renovation.
Why It’s Worth It:
Accent walls with custom textures bring a sense of sophistication and can serve as a conversation starter. They’re a subtle way to make a room feel more dynamic and designed, adding visual interest without overpowering the space.
What We Can Do:
Shawluxe’s design team will work with you to create a custom accent wall that complements your home’s existing aesthetic while making a bold statement. From modern to traditional styles, we’ll ensure that your accent wall becomes a stunning focal point.
3. Upgrade Your Lighting with Integrated Solutions
Lighting is often overlooked in renovations, but it’s one of the most impactful ways to elevate your home. Consider upgrading to integrated lighting solutions, such as under-cabinet lighting in the kitchen, LED strips in shelving units, or even recessed lighting in unexpected areas like hallways or bathrooms.
Why It’s Worth It:
Lighting not only enhances the functionality of your home but also dramatically impacts the mood and ambiance. By installing modern, energy-efficient lighting solutions, you can save on energy costs while boosting the overall look and feel of your living spaces.
What We Can Do:
Shawluxe can integrate smart and ambient lighting solutions into your home, from subtle cabinet lighting to statement chandeliers. Our team will ensure that each room is not only well-lit but also styled to perfection.
4. Custom Mudroom or Entryway Solutions
You may have already tackled the big rooms in your home, but what about the areas that make first impressions, like the entryway or mudroom? These functional spaces can be customized with built-in benches, shoe storage, and cubbies to keep your home organized and welcoming.
Why It’s Worth It:
A well-designed entryway or mudroom isn’t just about looks—it’s about creating a practical space that helps keep your home tidy and clutter-free. Guests and homeowners alike will appreciate the thoughtful design, and a custom mudroom can significantly improve daily functionality.
What We Can Do:
Shawluxe excels at creating custom entryway and mudroom designs that combine beauty and practicality. From built-in seating to smart storage solutions, we can turn your entryway into a welcoming and organized space.
