A new season is approaching with a breath of refreshing air. But while the spring cleaning fever is at it’s peak, many people are sure to find themselves looking to improve their homes at the same time. If you’ve been feeling a bit tired of the current style of your home, then consider some of these interesting ways to change up your home’s exterior design to spruce things up this season.
Repaint Your Siding
Over time, the paint on your siding may get dirtier through natural wear from debris and dust. But this isn’t always immediately noticeable. As the original colors begin to fade, you may also become accustomed to their new shades. Many people are often surprised when they take the time to thoroughly wash and paint the exterior of their homes because the result feels like they’ve purchased a new house all over again.
Upgrade Your Sidelights
Sidelights are the first greeting that introduces guests to the warmth of your home. As the sun dips below the horizon, the glow of your home is the guiding light that offers a cozy first impression to late-night visitors. Sidelights are not exclusive to moonlit nights, however. The frame that encompasses the lights has numerous designs that help unify the look of your home’s exterior and act as additional forms of décor that improve its overall image. Your sidelights are a small but appreciated detail to those with an eye for different aspects of design.
Customize Your Garage Door
The garage door is one of the most overlooked aspects of exterior home design. Considering the large amount of space it takes up, it’s a shame to waste it on plain patterns. For example, there are several different styles of wooden garage doors that you can get custom built per your design preference. Depending on how much you wish to change your home’s exterior, the garage door becomes a big player in making a noticeable statement to onlookers, guests, and family.
By considering a few of these interesting ways to change up your home’s exterior design, you can make some transformative changes that last. If you’re a designer at heart who enjoys a fun challenge, then updating your home and getting it ready for the season is an excellent goal. How dynamic those changes are depends on your dedication and budget, but the result is always worth it.
