Renovation Tips For A Classic, Not Trendy, Home (Part 1 of 3)


Here's the dilemma. You're getting ready to redo your kitchen and you want it to be stylish and modern but not trendy. After all, this is the only kitchen renovation you ever plan to do and you don't want it to be outdated before you are even finished with the final touches.
If you're paralyzed because you're afraid of making the wrong decision, we get it. We're facing a similar dilemma here, FYI, with floors that need to be done and so many options from which to choose and no winner (yet) because it's not yet clear if what is currently hot is just a flash in the (floor) pan or will stick around for a while.
So how do you know how to choose? First, it depends on what your goals are. If you're just looking to update and then sell your house, choosing materials that are trending now may be a good call. If you're thinking, "I want to love this and have it still look good in 10 years," that's another story.
"You've probably taken on a renovation project because you want to update the style. While you'd like to give your home a modern look, choosing a short-lived style or personal design is a major fail," said HomeAdvisor. "While a trendy design is sure to make your home stand out, it's also going to quickly go out of style. This is a big problem if you want to resell your home in the future. Modernize the look of your kitchen or bathroom, but avoid bold styles that only appeal to those with specific tastes."
