SAVVY DESIGN OPTIONS SMALL OR NARROW HOME BUILDS

This blog covers ways to cleverly design homes and maximise the available space on small or narrow blocks.




1) OPEN PLAN LIVING

Designing an open plan living space not only creates better flow, it also offers spaciousness.


2) BUILD UP

By adding a second level, you will be able to increase your living spaces even on a small or narrow block of land.


3) POCKET DOOR

A pocket door is a sliding door that disappears nearly completely into a cavity in the adjacent wall. This is a great way to option privacy and open space living when required indoors, as well as creating a good indoor-outdoor connection.


4) ATTIC STORAGE

Attic storage will declutter your home, keep your valuables safe, and improve the value of your property.


5) SPACE SAVERS

  • Create additional storage space in your shed or garage with shelving.

  • Vertical gardens are another great spacer design inclusion.

  • Opt for multi-functional furniture with inbuilt storage to keep clutter at bay and your living space tidy.

  • Expandable tables and foldaway decor offers adaptability and styling options for all occasions.

  • Utilise wall space with the savvy design of a sliding bookshelf.

6) TAKE ADVANTAGE OF HIGH CEILINGS

High ceilings are not only a stunning feature, but they can actually make a room feel and look bigger.


7) CONCRETE FENCES

Concrete exterior walls offer better sound proofing and privacy compared with timber and metal fences. The investment in a concrete privacy wall will add value to your home, with little maintenance required.


8) LIGHT IT UP

With smaller homes, there’s no such thing as too much natural light! Therefore, when designing your home, maximise the use of windows, glassed doors and skylights.


9) COLOUR SMART

Light, neutral colour schemes will add a sense of spaciousness. Light colours will also reflect the light, keeping the area looking spacious and inviting.
