Top 3 renovation trends of 2021

Home Gyms – Since the start of the coronavirus pandemic, people began to start finding empty and free spaces they had around their homes maybe like a space storage room or one that just wasn’t in use and have started converting them unto small gyms/workout studios. It really doesn’t cost much and is kind of a cool perk to have a small place in your own home to workout in peace and not have to pay for those sometimes costly gym memberships. You’ll really only need maybe a few dumbbell sets and a treadmill or even a peleton machine and your pretty much all set. Obvisoly you won’t get the entire gym experience but with the talks of a fourth wave looming and the unpredictability of gyms will stay open or not, having one in your home sounds just about right. Soundproofing Spaces – Ever since the rise of “Work from home “happened since the pandemic people have also had to start making and creating their own home offices to keep working. That’s where the new trend of soundproofing your office space from the outside would be handy. How much times have you ever called a customer support line and heard extra noise in the background? Or being on a zoom call with your bosses and something like your dishwasher goes off or a random your hear your neighbours mow their lawn at an early 9am on a Tuesday and it just distracted you and everyone on your zoom call? Hence why this new trend of soundproofing your work space and maybe even your laundry room come into play because, everyone knows the sound of a laundry machine going off just rattles the entire home. Plus the peace you would have to get the work you need done with no distractions is just pure bliss. So soundproofing your important and noisy areas of your home is here and here to stay. The Smarter Home – Ever since the rise of home technology back in I guess 2010 with the introduction of the NEST thermostat. A smarter home has been on the rise, and again ever since the pandemic people have had a lot more time on their hands to see how they can really take their home into the 22nd century let’s say !, everything from 4k security cameras to having smart energy smart light bulbs and even heated driveways are becoming the norm. Now you even have smart door locks, which if you forget to lock your door you can simply lock your doors from an app that’s connected directly to your home locks. We now have full 360* smart home monitoring systems that you can set a select time of when you think your kids come home from school and alert you when they have. You can even buy these light bulbs that can mimic the colour of the sun from outside and technically “colour match “the brightness of the sun inside your home. Yea…. A smarter home is upon us and the innovations are just getting started.
