Give Your Kitchen and Living Room a Modern Feel with these Home Design Tips

If you like your home, but feel like it’s progressively becoming more and more outdated, you may want to update its look and feel. With these simple home design tips, you can get things started and make your kitchen and living room more contemporary.

The Living Room

The living room in your house is probably the area where you spend the most time with your friends and family members. To make your living room home design more contemporary, get rid of any old wallpaper, scrape off any popcorn ceilings, eliminate clutter, and give the room a fresh coat of paint. While looking through paint samples, go with a color like white or light grey, which will give the room a light and bright look.  

The Kitchen

Although replacing your kitchen’s countertops and cabinets can instantly give your kitchen a more modern feel, you can still update your kitchen using more cost-effective techniques. For example, you may want to replace all of the hardware on your cabinets and drawers and replace the light fixtures in this room.

If you want to take things a step further, incorporate updated seating options into your kitchen and put a new coat of paint on your cabinets in a modern color.
