local bed shop can talk you through the options and see what is the best for your body, sleeping position and needs. Then think about the ensemble base or frame.

Head into the shop with an idea of your needs and the design of your bedroom beforehand – it can be overwhelming once you are there.

If you are planning a very contemporary space, it will be a mistake to buy an ornate dark timber frame. If extra storage is important, there are a range of frames that cleverly incorporate this into the bed.

The furniture What about the rest of the furniture? It’s a good idea to buy bedside tables that are the same height as the bed – these give a streamlined look and you’ll f nd

DON’T MOVE...

it’s the most practical option for laying down your book at night. A storage trunk at the end of the bed is a great idea for extra throws and cushions and to give you a place to sit down to take off your shoes at night. A reading chair in the corner is a great touch if you have the space. Really think about your morning and bedtime ritual, and what kind of furniture you need to make your room comfortable and practical. Some people won’t be able to do without a dressing table, others will need lots of storage.

Work through your routine, your needs and wants and design your space from there.

The linen No home owner ever regretted buying quality bed linen, so when you head to the bedding shop be

RENOVATE

prepared to invest in high thread-count sheets, and high-quality doona covers, plus extras such as throws and cushions.

For a contemporary bedroom, don’t go overboard with the accessories as you’ll just end up cluttering the room, and keep the colours neutral.

The lighting Lighting is not only integral to the mood and feel of your bedroom, but it also needs to be practical.

Avoid downlights in the bedroom as they are just too harsh. Instead, invest in bedside lamps, recessed LED strip lighting under shelving and task lighting over by the reading chair or near the dressing table. If your space is otherwise quite neutral, create drama with a pendant light or two.

Imagine... NO

Take care of your mattress • Keep the label – it gives you important information and care instructions and you may need it for any warranties or claims in the future.

• Turn your mattress regularly to ensure wear and tear is evenly distributed.

• Invest in a quality mattress protector to ensure your mattress stays clean and hygienic.

• Don’t let the kids jump on the bed, as this could damage the mattress and void any warranty.

• Try to avoid getting the mattress wet. To keep it clean vacuum or use a mild soap and water solution to spot clean any stains.

KITCHEN

O

f the exhausting number of choices the home renovator has to make in relation to the kitchen, you would think choosing a sink would be easy.

But here too you are spoilt for choice. Here are a few: Stainless steel – The most popular, and inexpensive choice, stainless steel sinks come in a variety of types and sizes. A good choice for most kitchens, stainless steel isn’t always stainless, as it can scratch and show up water spots, but for other stains it is pretty good.

Composite – Usually made from granite or quartz and a

resin or acrylic f ller. This makes composite sinks very durable, and good looking, as they take on the look of granite or quartz.

Fireclay – Made from ceramic covered by a porcelain enamel, f reclay sinks are tough, but not always resistant to chipping. Australian renovators are rediscovering the classic shapes of farmhouse and butler sinks, which look great in many different styles of kitchens.

Single or double – Single bowl sinks are great for compact rooms and in second kitchens, bar areas or butler’s pantries.

Refresh your home with a modern look at a competitive price

New range of bamboo flooring available from them as they want to have the convenience of two bowls, single-bowl sinks are generally large enough to f t in your biggest pots and pans, and they are generally cheaper than the double-bowl varieties. Some single bowls are small, shallow and round, while others are large and square.

Sink size – Double bowls usually feature a larger and smaller bowl, but come in a few conf gurations, such as two bowls of the same size, same depth but different size or different depth and same size.

Consider how you will be using

your sink to decide which conf guration works for you.

Top versus bottom – Topmount sinks are dropped into a hole in your benchtop and feature a lip that holds the sink into place and gives it the f nished look. They are relatively easy and cheap to install, making them a good option for DIY renovators. If you want a sleeker look, an under-mount sink may be the way to go. In this style the benchtop drops off directly into the sink. They require more expertise (and therefore money) to install, but the f nish is very contemporary and clean.

BATHROOM

Getting fresh

T

here’s a reason why white and beige tones are popular for bathrooms – they lighten and expand the space and are easy to keep clean.

If you’ve decided to base your colour scheme on white for your new bathroom you’ll need to decide whether to go all out and have everything from the bath to the showerhead to the towel rail in the same pure, crisp hue. Others will just want the large elements such as f ooring, bath and walls in white. Here are a few tips to getting it right: • To break up the look of an all-white space, consider playing with texture to add variety. Contrasting textures

will help add visual interest while maintaining your vision of a pure white bathroom. Consider injecting texture with a mosaic tile splashback over the vanity, tactile f oor rugs and interesting accessories such as vases, soap dishes and dispensers.

• You can create a white bathroom in almost any design style, from ultra-contemporary (with lots of technology and clean lines), to a country-style look (with more ornate f ttings and a claw-foot bath) or a more urban abode (with exposed pipes and an industrial-style shelving system).

Give your Concrete a tip.

• If, once you have created your new space, you decide that it looks too plain, carefully introduce some elements that will act as focal points, creating more visual interest in the space.

This doesn’t mean a bright pink feature wall, but something subtle, such as a cluster of black and white photos on one wall or a plush chair in a bright colour such as turquoise. Even a simple vase of f owers can lift the space and add that f nal f ourish to your gorgeous new room.

Colour It Australia Makeover COME IN AND SEE OU R HUGE DISPLA Y AREA

Bathroom style A timeless style is great in the bathroom, but don’t be afraid to be bold, say with a unique basin or an unusual mirror.

Don’t forget the small details that really f nish off the room such as grout, lighting and skirting. It’s these details that make a good bathroom great.

If you’re worried about your space looking cold, introduce natural timber elements in the furniture or accessories to warm up the bathroom.

WINDOWS & DOORS

How to choose your window coverings Curtains aren’t just for privacy and light control, they also add personality to any room. When choosing your curtains here are a few things to consider:

Don’t forget to have fun – do lots of research by looking at how others or doing it, look through magazines and visit lots of fabric and home furnishing shops for inspiration and ideas.

Choose your fabric carefully as windows can be tough environments for fabrics – if your window is exposed to harsh sunlight or if you have children or pets, avoid curtains made from delicates that will fade or perish easily.

When choosing curtains don’t be afraid to create drama by going for a curtain that is a few centimetres longer than f oor-length.

While you might fall in love with a type of curtain, it might not best the best option for the space.

Consider how the covering will work with your furniture and how it will impact on the proportions of the room.

Colour, texture and style are all important considerations.

Beautiful bi-folds Why have a door or window when you can have a bi-fold? These types of doors fold back to instantly open up a room, and are a popular way to connect indoor living spaces with outdoor ones.

But bi-folds are also a good replacement for windows, especially in kitchens where they can create a server that leads to an outdoor seating area. The weight of a bi-fold is usually taken by the top beam and the bottom rail acts as a guide. Bi-folds can be installed in most spaces and come in a range of readymade sizes – from two to about six leaves – though some installers will be happy to custom make whatever type of bi-fold you are after.

want a feature wall but can’t decide Q. Ibetween two colours – what do I do?

Create a two-tone feature wall. Using two colours on the one wall is easy and really lifts the space. Here’s how: 1. When choosing paint, go for colours with a similar intensity or brightness. Then work out which will go on top and which is best for the lower half of the wall – as a rule the darker shade looks best on the bottom.

2. You will need to then work out the height at which the two colours will meet. Picture your furniture in the room – it will look better if the meeting point does not line up with the top of your furniture.

3. Use painters tape to mark out the line and paint the top colour f rst. Wait until the paint is touch dry before pulling off the tape.

Give it another hour or so before taping again for the bottom layer.

kinds of Q. What materials should I

use in my kitchen renovation?

really want to use a stylist or Q. Idesigner to help create a beautiful interior, but how do I make sure I get a room that really reflects my personality and not that of the stylist?

Functionality should always come f rst in a kitchen, but a really great room must also looks good. The trick with kitchens is to have a good contrast of materials. If you must have natural materials in your kitchen such as timber and exposed brick, ensure you contrast this with sleek white tiles or glossy 2-pac cabinets.

A stylist’s job isn’t to impose his or her taste on your home, but to interpret your brief and create a room that ref ects your tastes, needs and budget.

If you have a clear vision, the stylist will work with that and advise you on what is possible and give you an idea of the best way to turn your vision into a reality. If you’re not sure, a good stylist will ask lots of questions about what kind of mood you want to create, then he or she will make suggestions, but ultimately the decision on paint colours, soft furnishings, window coverings and furniture is yours.

INSPIRATION

The New York loft

M

ore and more home renovators are taking cues from the New York loft apartment. Even if you own a home in the suburbs of the Sunshine Coast, it’s a look you can incorporate successfully into your new renovation. While the New York loft is characterised by soaring ceilings, oversized windows and open spaces, you can inject a little loftiness in your latest project.

The loft style is contemporary, practical and timeless. New York lofts are created inside old warehouses and semi-industrial spaces, so the loft look draws on their industrial-style heritage.

Here are a few elements: • Bare f oors, exposed concrete and repurposed timber – the loft look is unpolished and effortless.

• Exposed pipes – if you like this look, in the bathroom consider leaving the plumbing exposed for a raw, industrial feel that is right on trend.

• Exposed brick – don’t line your walls.

Keep your brick exposed or cover the bricks in a white paint so that their texture shows through.

• Simple window coverings and treatments – if you can’t leave your windows bare for privacy reasons, sheer fabrics over simple roman blinds are a good option.

• Open kitchens – like the idea of a central kitchen? It’s a look that ties in well with the loft-style interior.

• Crisp white touches – it’s a good idea to soften and lighten all those heavy, industrial-style elements. Add white

Having trouble sliding your doors? with a large soft armchair, simple white pendant lights or oversized cushions and soft furnishings.

• Open spaces – create privacy and divide the home into zones with furniture placement, book shelves and rugs rather than walls.

• Contemporary furniture – clean lines are the way to go when choosing furniture for this type of space.

• Artwork – while the look is pared back, a splash of colour is needed to create focal points and areas of interest. Colourful, oversized artworks or a couple of large, well-placed accessories such as vases, f oor cushions or a sculpture will work well in the space.

BOOK REVIEW

Houses Now: Material Style $59.95, Images Publishing

nspiration can strike at any time, but if you are stuck for ideas for your latest renovation project, it’s not a bad idea to grab some books and magazines and see what incredible designs others are creating.

Make sure this book is among them. Houses Now: Material Style is f lled with a collection of contemporary homes that test the boundaries of design.

The publisher takes us around the world where we drop in on a century-old American bungalow which has been artfully restored; a

home called Jellyf sh which has been built in response to the insistent Spanish sun; and New Zealand’s Davy House, which has been built using Sthapatya Veda design principles.

The Sunshine Coast gets a nod too with Montville House, a sustainable home in the Obi Obi valley, designed by Sparks Architects.

Beautifully presented, the book is packed with colourful photographs and handy f oor plans to really get your creative renovation juices f owing.

Have you always dreamt of having stone benchtops?

Quality stone has never been more affordable. Come in and view our wide range of International stone.

tip.

Can’t decide which interior style is for you? Are you snowed under by the advice of well-meaning friends and all those design magazines? The key to designing your new interior is to have fun turning your renovation into a home. Don’t overthink it.

It can be overwhelming deciding which interior style to choose, so if you’re f nding all those colour swatches and furniture catalogues are just too much, take a step back, breath and take it slow. You don’t have to get it all done this week or this month. Fill your newly renovated home slowly with new colours and pieces and eventually you’ll have a space that truly ref ects your personality.

Orange is a cheery, bold colour. But for renovators, this hue comes with a warning in its true form of equal parts red and yellow, orange can overwhelm. So be wary of using true orange in the home – small splashes in accessories are probably enough. On a larger scale go for yelloworanges in living and dining areas to stimulate appetite and conversation. Mustard tones look amazing against dark blues, turquoise and grey.

Rusty oranges look great in the outdoor dining area, while a soft peach colour can work well in bedrooms and cosy family rooms.

More and more interior designers and home renovators are including black in the home, and not just in small touches. This living room works because the black elements are tempered by white chairs and softened with indoor plants. In wall paints go for a black with an orange undertone for the home to keep it warm and inviting.

tiling tip.

If you’re keen to include tiles in your outdoor areas, there are a few things you need to take into account. First check the tiles’ absorption rate – the more absorbent they are the more likely they will crack and stain so go for impervious tiles for outdoors. You’ll also want a tile that can take a fair amount of wear and tear. The tile should be f nished in a tough, non-skid glaze, especially if you are using it around a pool, and remember to consider size – the bigger the tile the trickier it will be to place on uneven surfaces.
