Lighting

One profoundly simple way to change the feel and look of your home is to install some new lighting. Of course, this does mean that you will have to go a bit further than just changing the shade on the central pendant.

In fact, it works more effectively when you get as creative as possible with the lights in a room. Something that you can do by installing a non-traditional chandelier style rig, uplighters, spotlights, and even globe lights. The latter being something that can radiate a warm glow throughout a space while keeping things soft and cozy looking too.

Of course, to be as effective as possible with your new lighting you will need to consider the effect and practicalities that you need within each room. Although, by using smart LED bulbs you can have access to a range of effects that can be changed with your needs or mood, and help to make your home look and feel entirely different, quickly and simply.

Organization

One thing that is bound to keep your family home looking like a blast from the past, and not isn't a good way, is clutter. In fact, clutter can not only make a room look dated but small and dark as well.

Sometimes more drastic action is needed to update the family home. This means doing some remodeling work to tweak the areas that need changing, so they both look better and fit the need or your family more closely.

Luckily, if you are considering remodeling your home, you don't have to do it all yourself. In fact, some experienced professionals can help you to decide on the best course of action for your remodel and assists you in completing it as well.

Removable wallpaper / changeable decor

Lastly, remember that new development and tech are coming out all the time concerning the home, and these can be used to keep things looking as modern and fresh as possible.

One such development is removable wallpaper, which you can apply to any area of the home, and then easily take down when you get bored of the design. Alternatively, why not use washable paint in the high use areas, then when the wall begins to get scuffed, you only need to clean them off with a damp cloth, and they will look fresh once again. Something that can help you to give your home an updated look without only minimal effort.
