It is always an exciting time when change in in the air. Be it personal changes, professional changes or even developing new hobbies and interests , the anticipation of a fresh new approach can be easy to get on board with.

A good example of an exciting change is redecorating the home. The opportunity to give your home a brand-new look, giving a sense of freshness and rejuvenation which will benefit you and your whole family.

Yet it is important to consider what you are about to get into. After all, making a lot of sudden changes to your home design will cause a lot of disruption and break the flow of your home; which can potentially affect members of the house for significant periods of time.

This inconvenience may lead to negative emotions, which may in turn draw a cloud over the benefits of any improvements you make. For example, you may lay down brand new black laminate flooring in the living room, however the benefits of the unique design and quality will not be of any benefit to anyone if the walls still need painting, or the room is missing basic amenities

Therefore when it comes to home design, maybe it would be better to take a step by step approach. This for some may seem like dragging things out, making the re design process longer and costlier than it should be.

Yet taking a step by step approach offers a number of advantages that makes it the best approach for re designing the home.

The first advantage is that it allows you to ease into your new design. Making a lot of sudden and large changes to a room design can be somewhat jarring. Taking the bedroom as an example, going for a step by step approach and installing your new grey laminate flooring will ease you into the new look, maintaining a soothing bedroom vibe.

This also leads to the second benefit of a step by step approach, it is a lot more relaxing and flexible. Going in head first may be the best way of getting things done quickly, however this approach requires a lot of dedication and will disrupt the everyday routine of the home. Going for a step by step design approach removes this adding in new features bit by bit reducing disruption and stress; in exchange for a longer design process.

The final benefit to a step by step approach is how it allows you as a designer a new level of flexibility. To explain, going all out in your home renovation means that you have decided on your design beforehand. However, this is only on paper, and in practice certain choices may not work out as intended. So, by adding in new features a bit at a time allows you to see your design evolve before your eyes.

This flexibility allows you to evolve your home design looking at your new features and building upon them. The end result could end up being a room and home design which never crossed your mind before, but that feels fresh and organic as a result.
