how come many small bathrooms get dark color and yet look brighter and no less small and cramped? our windowless bathroom is so small that a tall person bumps into the door with your knees while sitting. I'd love to make it prettier but any other light color just always makes it look tight and dirty. I don't dare to use darker colors.

I absolutely love how they realized they could never obscure the pipes, so they integrated them into a statement wall. Really well done.

    I mean it’s a stunning transformation, but the tree still could’ve stayed put, just sayin. The layout and design would’ve been altered of course, but that would’ve been worth it to avoid chopping down a tree. If anything the tree would’ve been a nice addition. But I do gotta give credit where credit is due, it still looks beautiful.

    When scrolling through these examples, the first thing we notice is obviously aesthetics. This is the primary reason for most renovations, but besides being aesthetically pleasing to the eye, it also increases the property value. 

    ADVERTISEMENT

    Renovating an old house or an apartment could be a good idea for improving functionality, such as optimizing floor plans, creating additional storage, or modifying layouts. And let's not forget the upgrade to a more energy-efficient home, which will save you money on heating and electricity bills.

    It's an amazing transformation. Not to my taste, tho. I don't like the stone wall. I hope they'll have a really good exhaust fan. With the moisture that could collect in a bathroom, that stone would be a breeding ground for mold and mildew. The towels would gather moisture also. And where do you put your toothbrush? It's a nice show but not practical.

    The cons, as well as the pros, depend on your project, but they all include spending money. The expenses can quickly add up, so to avoid exceeding your budget, careful planning is important. 

    All renovations require time and can cause disruptions to your daily life, especially if unexpected issues arise. That will require a lot of decision-making, which could lead to stress buildup, as home renovations can be emotionally taxing.

    I have to say, grey walls are not for me either. I moved into a very small house (under 800 sq ft) and all the walls were grey! It looks so much better repainted a light off white! Especially small spaces, no to grey. So I like the after just for getting rid of the grey.

    A front door in the living room? I could never ever live like that. It’s like having a toilet in the kitchen! Ok we have all the weathers on one day sometimes. And need a lot of winter clothes, shoes and so on. And then summer clothes and shoes. Add rainy weather clothes and shoes (one set for cold rainy weather and one set for warm rainy weather). Imagine the chaos with kids. My entry is one big changing station that is always full of sand and shoes.

    It is typical in parts of England. Many houses like that still around in my area. They are usually rows of cottages and the entrance is right off the pavement without front garden, literally three steps from road.

    Staging furniture, no books. Changed 2 cabinet doors, took off 2 small sections of mirror, crack filled, painted, put down peel 'n still vinyl over top the hardwood. Looks like a property that was renovicted and then the price massively increased, or flipped further destroying the property market.

    It was a nice, big kitchen that looked easy to work in, and you made it cramped, plus got rid of 75% of the storage. The breakfast bar is redundant when your dining table is right f'ing there.

    Not a fan. I don't like the open cupboard concept and the loss of storage space is awful. Great for the current owner, but the resale value will not go well. The charm was removed as well.

    It's similar, but I don't think its the same room. How can they fit a door and another curtain rod in the space beside the window? There's not enough room in the first picture. And in the first picture, the right hand window has space between it and the wall. In the 2nd photo, the window is right up against the wall.

    A stove should not be put in a corner. It should be where the sink is now, and the sink should be under the window - that would also give more countertop and cabinet space. Bad solution. And too many different materials and surfaces and textures.

    I like it. I think the pink/peach (can't really tell) cabinets breaks up the monotony of it all and gives the kitchen a focal point. The curtain under the sink is like a throw back to the 40s and 50s. I think it softens the kitchen and is cute.

    I think the space to the right of the tub is the shower area. It looks like a long thin drain on the floor, and the rainfall shower head is not centered over the tub. I like it, except for the very small area for the toilet.
