Create coziness in the very walls of your home with these tips!
Coziness is a big trend in interior design. However, it can extend from the driveway to the heart of your home. Below, we shall look at five cozy house design ideas you can implement in your own home or in the design of your future custom home in Maryland. If a waterfront custom home is what you’re looking to have someday, Shore-Line Construction is ready to be your home-building partner.
Use Landscaping to Your Advantage
You can use the landscaping to create a closed-in feeling without feeling claustrophobic. Purposefully-positioned trees, shrubs, ground cover, and flowers will give your property privacy and beauty. It is possible to create a landscape that makes your home feel like another world, even in a small lot.
Draw from Architectural Styles
Different architectural styles exude coziness, a sense of comfort, relaxation, and closeness. What seems cozy to you might not be to someone else; it depends on your taste. Craftsman-style houses use warm, natural materials, and traditional homes can have dormers, nooks, and turrets. Modern homes have sharp lines and angles, but interior furnishings make all the difference.
Use Warmth and Softness
Warmth and softness are key characteristics of a cozy home design. You can use warm colors on the walls, floors, fixtures, and furnishings, but you can also use bright or moody color schemes with gentle patterns instead.
Use Textured and Natural Materials
Texture is trending in home design, also. To enhance the sense of warmth in home design, implement natural or textured materials like wood, stone, and brick. As an example, your design could feature wooden doors, wooden ceiling beams, brick flooring, and stone countertops. Wool, jute, cotton, and other natural fiber rugs will finish the look.
Warm Light Temperature
Lighting can completely change a space. Warm lighting is far more favorable today than cool, fluorescent lighting. One can implement cozy lighting through pendant lights, chandeliers, wall sconces, task lighting, and lamps.
