spring remodeling report

In the time when less is more and economy is dipping people are living in their homes longer. They seem to be more interested in making their homes a place of beauty and simplicity. The current market situation changed many homeowners’ financial situation, but in many cases their value as well.




 I noticed the growing interest in home comfort and a simpler lifestyle has a major impact on the home design field, particularly the kitchen and master bath area. The master bath has become a living space where people 
spend a lot of time.

When people come home from work, they can’t wait to get into their bathrooms. More and more people looking for a bath that is simple, uncluttered and restful, with functional and comfort. This trend seems to be true regardless of the bath’s or kitchen’s size. Building material influence, time and energy concerns are also impacting bath design. 

“Many clients I have is ripping out the old material, tubs and kitchen cabinets and getting rid of them” according to Chester architect and LEED certified professional. A few years ago I was replacing them with sculptural tubs, but now they don’t want any tub at all. People don’t want or don’t have a time for long bath, and they are watching water, energy and healthier interiors. 

Economy Luxury bathrooms are product driven spaces. In designing baths or kitchens – the more you add, they more expensive they become. However we have many good products on market for lower price and good quality. “It’s an exciting time” many of my clients says .


Years ago, it was a straggle to create some luxurious because the price was too high. But now I see products all across the board that delivers luxury at affordable prices. Clients don’t have to go with the most expensive product to remain on trend and have a beautiful space. There are a lot of options that look terrific.
