Home Renovation Planning: Budget, Timeline, and Local Trends

1. Planning and Preparation:

• Before starting any home renovation project, plan carefully. Consider your budget, timeline, and desired outcomes.
• Identify which areas of your home need improvement. It could be anything from a small decor update to a full-scale renovation.
• Research local materials and design trends to find inspiration¹.
• Make a list of tasks and prioritize them based on urgency and feasibility.

2. Local Materials:

• Show your love for American design and culture by using local products and indigenous materials. Consider incorporating bamboo, rattan, or abaca into your home decor.
• Tanguile, narra, and mahogany are popular wood choices for furniture and flooring. Each type has its pros and cons¹.

3. Minimalist Design:

• Minimalism is a timeless trend. Create a space that exudes simplicity and sophistication by choosing the right minimalist furniture.
• Contrary to misconceptions, minimalist homes can still have splashes of color when done with restraint¹.

4. Container Homes:

• Inspired by travel, consider building a container home. It’s a modern, minimalist approach that repurposes shipping containers into functional living spaces¹.

Remember, home improvement is a journey, so take it one step at a time! ??
