Quick - what's the first impression you have from these photos?
- mauve?
- dated?
- ho hum?
- needs a face-lift?
Unfortunately, that's what many home buyers think when viewing a home that has tile or features that are not currently in style or that they can imagine in a contemporary decorating scheme. The small candlesticks aren't adding to a contemporary look as well. When showing a home for sale, its so important to create a desirable image for each space - an image that buyers will fall in love with and remember after viewing other homes.
This bathroom is actually in fantastic condition, spacious and in a beautiful high-end home. Unfortunately the "mauve" colors were discouraging to buyers and the owners did not want to make updates. Buyers couldn't see this space as a real selling feature, even though the sellers had "staged" and it was spotlessly clean.
The challenge for Creative Concepts and Contracting was to affordably present this space as contemporary and inviting, placing a focus on the positive (spacious, great views, high quality) and one that new owners could enjoy without doing a major update. What will buyers remember? The mauve - or that it looked marvelous?
Lime green is a hot color this spring and by bringing in lime and black, the room now appears contemporary and desirable. Decor in proportion to the space and updated art contributed to the overall appeal.
The feedback is no longer about the mauve . . . it's about how marvelous this room is! People who had viewed the room previously and found it unattractive were now impressed and convinced they would enjoy this space - without a remodel!
The master bedroom also features lime/black/pink and the whole look is contemporary and stylish!
