  1. How To Design A Family Friendly Apartment When Renovating

  2. You might not think it possible to combine style with functionality when renovating your apartment, but with the right construction company to help you, you can enjoy a home that caters to the needs of everyone in your family, even if they haven’t arrived yet! To help you renovate your apartment with both style, and your family in mind, here are some helpful pointers:

  3. Plan the layout to be a functional one ● Functionality should be at the forefront of any renovation, because if your beautiful new home doesn’t allow you to use it how you want to, you might well be left asking whether all the expense and upheaval was worth it. For families, many prefer an open-concept design, allowing parents and caregivers to observe everyone in every space, even when they’re busy. It also gives the family more opportunities to spend quality time together, which is what being a family is all about. That said, you may want to make sure that those family members who may want to enjoy their own space, can do so with ease, perhaps by adding in a snug, or allowing the kids bedrooms to be at one end of the apartment, and the adults at the other.

  4. For family-friendly spaces such as the kitchen and living room, ensure that there’s enough space for everyone to move around freely, and consider whether rooms such as playrooms can double up as an office or guest bedroom in the future, when your kids grow or move out of home. Invest in durability and quality ● A family-friendly home is one that should be able to endure everything a modern, active family are likely to put it through, and by choosing tough materials designed with durability in mind, you can help make sure you’re not renovating again in a few years’ time as certain elements wear out or become damaged.

  5. For high-traffic spaces in your home, opt for sturdy, solid furnishings with no sharp edges and choose fabrics that are patterned or mid-toned, and which will disguise stains and wear more easily. Have designated zones for adults and kids ● As touched upon briefly in the first point, having kids and adults be separate when they want or need to be, can help everyone remain in the home for longer, and be comfortable at the same time. It also means that you can indulge in some of your less child-friendly design ideas in adults only zones, and where you go with this one is entirely up to you! And for your little ones, you can design them a space in which they can pretty much do as they please, and they won’t come to any harm.

  6. Give plenty of space for storage ● Nowadays, there are plenty of stunning storage options which allow you to combine style with functionality, meaning that boring old closets are a thing of the past. No longer do you have to compromise on style when searching for storage options, and for families, storage can prove to be a lifesaver, especially in smaller apartments. As such, don’t neglect this aspect of your renovation and make sure you utilise every corner to help keep your apartment tidy, organised and clutter-free. Remember that if you plan to sell your apartment in the future, having plenty of usable storage space can be a real selling point.

  7. Apartments can be made family-friendly with ease, provided you’re willing to explore all options, look outside of the normal conventions of home design, and ultimately, design the spaces with your family in mind. Working with a company who are experienced in such apartment renovations can also help make the entire process painless, and they may even have some ideas of their own as to how you can design your home to be more family-friendly.
