Bought a New Home? - Here’s how to keep it fresh
With this in mind, we’ve put together a few sure fire ways of ensuring your brand new home still feels new this time next year.
Keep it light
The most noticeable thing about a new home is how light and airy they feel. Lots of whites and light greys fill the space and make everything seem so clean and lovely. Make sure to keep this vibe going across all of the sociable areas of the home, helping to continue that look and feel of new and fresh for a longer space of time.
We would recommend keeping furniture light too, such as our fabulous light painted oak ranges, or even white gloss to really keep a shine on things!
Clutter control
Lived in looks are easily created, but to keep that new feel, managing clutter is a big task to tackle. Some modern and smart storage space is a must have in any brand new home, keeping things tucked away rather than all over the surfaces in every room.
Large sideboards, display cabinets and console tables are all perfect for blending into the room space whilst hiding away those spare magazines and bric-a-brac, helping to open up the floor space and make your home feel open and fresh for longer.
Open space
Open spaces help create a feeling of more room to move and flow around the home. The more you put into a room, the less space you have to create a fresh look that keeps
This means your furniture needs to work smarter to help free up more space in your home, whilst remaining practical and comfortable. In the living room, a compact yet cosy sofa is perfect for utilising space whilst keeping the family comfy during movie night. For the dining room, elegant extending tables are great for tucking in and the tucking away when done. And for the bedroom, a compact wardrobe solution helps you store more in less space. All of these styles and interiors are available from our showroom, perfect for new homes looking to save space!
Keep to the theme
An interior theme is a great tool to ensure your home feels as big and as open as possible. Colour schemes and furniture styles help to combine your rooms into a bigger space that feels like a complete package.
When you visit a home, you will most likely flow between a hallway, living room, kitchen and potentially even a dining room. Keeping these rooms to a theme helps to expand the space despite the walls in-between, opening up the entire floor seamlessly and stylishly too.
Stand out decor
You’ve simplified your furniture, decluttered and created a large space using interior style. However, there is such a thing as too bare!
Big and clear wall space is always deserving of a finishing touch, such as a stylish mirror, audacious artwork or a glamorous light fixture. Using these spaces helps create a modern style across the home, and draws visitors attention to every corner of the room, once again creating a feel of more space.

We are here to help you keep that new home look for longer, with our latest furniture and decor, perfect to help you open up space and create an interior that feels new every time you walk in the door.
