Add colour

Most new builds tend to be neutral in design, with white walls and wooden floors or creme carpets. To add personality to the space, you want to imbue it with splashes of colour. Pick Roman Blinds for your windows that come in beautiful candy shades or intricate patterns, add vibrant artwork, throw rugs down on the floor and be sure to have a vase that’s always filled with fresh flowers.

Think about your furnishings

Furnishings can really change a room from being drab to fab, so don’t neglect these and think about how they’ll work together. You want furniture that’s comfortable and cosy, where you can see yourself relaxing and that isn’t necessarily selected just for the look of it. While you want your furnishings to work well in a space, if they’re not comfortable it’s just not going to work. Again, avoid trends here and think more of the longevity of items such as your sofa and bed as these are expensive and you want them to last for a long time.

Put art and photos on the walls

You want to add personality to your new build home by adding art and photos to the wall. This will turn a lifeless space into something that has soul and that you know is yours and can be distinguished from other places in an instant. Whether you add a gallery wall with a myriad of different photos, or big art canvases, the choice is yours.

Don’t neglect the scent of your home

The last thing you can do is add a scent to your home. This can be done with room sprays, candles, reed diffusers and wax melts, the choice is yours. By choosing a smell you love and recognize, it will instantly make your home feel like yours.

These are just a few things you can do that can help you to add personality to your new build home.
