Do you remember the way the red space constantly changed its face in the “Haunting of Hill House”? It turned into a tree house, a dance studio, a play area and a library to give the residents of the house their own space. The special world trend that takes over new houses follows a similar topic, although it has nothing magical or eerie about it. In order to deal with the concept of home design, House Digest spoke exclusively to Mary Peters, the founder and CEO of Sasquatch contracting. She explained: “We see the desire for certain rooms of our customers. They don't want as much open space as carved corners that meet a purpose and separate activities.”
Peters explained the reason behind the popularity of the trend and said: “I think Covid has changed the way we live in our houses. Instead of thinking about future residents and keeping ground plans open to general use, homeowners are in their houses and curate their houses to meet their interests.” In other words, special areas are perfect for homeowners who want to enjoy the comfort of a tailor -made room and avoid an open floor plan. Such areas also have other advantages. “I think it is important to emphasize that special rooms are functional rooms and can improve their focus,” said Peters. “The classic example here is a home office, but the same applies to a puzzle room, a packaging room or a meditation room.” In addition, she explained that everyone can enjoy their favorite activities without causing unnecessary disorders. “Families and roommates can live more harmoniously with special rooms,” she said. But how can you apply it to your home?

There are no hard and fast rules when it comes to special areas. In her exclusive chat with House Digest, Peters mentioned: “Nothing is” typical “about special areas because they are designed on the basis of a person's interests and needs.” Imagine as an empty area that is waiting for you to breathe life into life with your preferred topic or your activity. For example, you could transform them into a tasting room for wines, whiskey or cigars if you are often hosting. Similarly, dawns are ideal for people who are in the glow of the Sonne Aalen. “Usually near a primary bedroom, tomorrow rooms can be quite small, flooded and remote with natural light so that you can enjoy your coffee or tea, read and wake up messages,” said Peters. A collection room helps you to proudly show your jewelry while an internal herb garden will inspire home chefs. People who run a company from home benefit from a packaging room.
Although every room is tailored to the homeowner, Peters announced some common topics: “Sound proof is something that appears for various reasons, be it video games, a practice room for musicians or a podcast area, according to which we see more demand.” Is it worth investing in such rooms, however, if you move soon? Peters iterated: “If a homeowner invests in a special room for himself and then moves, the new inmate can find a charm in the unique room and be inspired to use it for himself, or to renovate it to better fit in his own lifestyle and interests.”

The first thing you need to do is determine the purpose of your special area like a custom walk -in wardrobe. Then find the area or space for it. From her experience, Peters supported her in her Digest house: “We renovated a closet into a dry bar and it worked very well.” Use unusual areas for your advantage to optimally use the available room (remember Harry Potter's room under the stairs?). “Think beyond the box and find potential in any additional room, such as storage rooms in the subtal, which can be released for a child to read corners or a life -size doll house,” she said. Worried about a cramped special place? Invest in a stylish furniture article that immediately looks larger. If the available square meter number is not a problem, go economical and select a few nice pieces for your room.
If you think about giving your children about giving instruments, they also be friendly to their ears and soundproof of their room. You would also like to think about lighting: “If you use artificial light, use daylight light bulbs for learning rooms and offices and use soft/warm white for dining rooms and other rooms together.” Peters recommended that you get headlights to present your jewelry. Conversely, the use of strip lighting in baseboards adds a cool “WoW factor” for playing rooms, recording rooms and theater. ” Another basic requirement for a special area is color. Our expert suggested painting this area for additional intimacy in one color. The shine is also important. “Consider a high-end feeling with a high gloss color to give the room a high-end feeling,” she concluded.
