Tile Tile and More Tile

Tile offers more versatility than almost any other building element. Sure, paint comes in an infinite number of shades, but tile not only gives you color, but shape, texture, and sheen as well.

This unusual subway tile brings in brown and blue tones under the grey. Try doing that with paint!

The shape and color you find in man-made porcelain and ceramic tiles are almost unimaginable. But don’t forget to consider marble and other stone tiles as well.

Living Outdoors in Orange County

The Orange County climate is made for extending the inside to the outside. So, it’s no wonder Inspired Remodels creates fun and functional outdoor living spaces.

This Lake Forest addition wasn’t a new bathroom or living room, it was a beautiful living area outside. Imagine getting up in the morning, flinging the bedroom door open, and stepping outside onto your private oasis. Even Monday is a little bit better when you start the day like this.

Game day gets just a little bit better when your outdoor island includes a television. It stores safely inside the island when not in use and pops up when it’s time for food, friends, and football.

Who knows, your next house remodeling project may be outside!

Stoked About Storage

The hottest trend in Orange County remodeling is creating storage spaces so luxurious you forget they are functional. Whether you need extra storage room in the bathroom, kitchen, or anywhere in the house don’t forget storage can be beautiful.

Can you ever have too much storage space in the bathroom? Seriously! This San Clemente house remodeling project added enough storage in the bathroom to accommodate toiletries and clothing. Built-in storage in the bathroom just gives you more space in the bedroom.

By / Home Improvement / Comments Off on Interior Remodeling for a Minimalist Aesthetic in Orange County

As a result, you experience clean lines, functionality, and the bare beauty of the space. Inspired Remodels takes your dreams and turns them into reality. Increasingly, our clients want the stress-relieving benefits of a minimalist design for their interior remodeling projects. Here’s how we deliver.

Interior Remodeling for Minimalist Kitchens

The minimalist kitchen design begins with a simple palette. Black and white play a major role. Grey provides support and shades of all three can be incorporated.

Surfaces are smooth with sleek lines. Interior remodeling with an eye to minimalism keeps an eye on the little things. 

Subway tile makes the perfect backsplash material for a minimalist kitchen.

But minimal doesn’t mean boring. You find drama in unexpected places.

The stone top of this kitchen island offers more than just a beautiful place to do food prep. The white is icy cool and keeps the room looking chill, even on the hottest summer day. The gray veining contrasts and adds interest that you can’t duplicate with synthetic products.

All you need are a few simple stools or chairs with straight backs and you’ve also got space for eating breakfast or catching a quick meal.

A minimalist kitchen is all business. And it looks gorgeous when it’s hard at work or simply at rest, awaiting your next move.

Interior Remodeling for Minimalist Bathrooms

Roman showers, soaking tubs, and dual sinks. These are hardworking elements in a minimalist bathroom. Every item has a function and takes on its role in an understated fashion.

For example, this Ladera Ranch bathroom brings together black, white, and grey to create a space made for lingering just a bit longer.

Functionality exudes from every inch of this shower. Notice the integrated niche to keep grooming products at your fingertips. Anyone can appreciate the built-in bench for safely shaving or just enjoying the steam.

Clean lines on the showerhead and handle maintain the minimalist aesthetic while the rain shower delivers water in a minimalist style.

Light clearly abounds in this room. And that’s another hallmark of minimalist design.

Rooms are awash in light from natural sources.

Notice how this minimalist shower maximizes natural light? So many minimalist elements in this shower. It maximizes minimalism!

A complete kitchen remodel represents a major investment of money and time spent without a kitchen. You don’t want to screw this up! If a new kitchen is on the horizon, take the time to lay the groundwork. Utilize online and offline kitchen remodel planner tools to make the most of your space and budget.

Start with Your Present Position

The longest trip starts with the first step. And before you go anywhere you must know your current location. A kitchen remodel is no different.

Start by drawing, either on paper or on the computer, a scale rendering of your existing kitchen. Be sure to notate elements such as electrical outlets, light switches, plumbing, HVAC and heating vents, windows, and doors.

Now, create a list of the things you dislike most about your kitchen. Is it lacking space or too dark? Do you feel it’s a Brady Bunch kitchen straight from the ’60s?

Get it all out! Begin the purge of those kitchen demons by identifying them.

Start Dreaming

Now that you’ve taken a cold, hard look at your present situation it’s time to dream. Create your wish list.

When you think about what you want in a kitchen remodel, identify broad goals first. These can be:

  • More storage
  • Room for an island
  • Eat-in area
  • Display cabinets
  • Better lighting
  • Additional prep areas

You know you’re on the right track when your wish list goals address those demons identified in step one of your kitchen remodel planner.

Now is the time to create your lookbook. This can literally be a binder or folder with clippings of kitchens that appeal to you or a special Pinterest board. When you see something appealing, save it, and determine what it is about the look that appeals to you. Is it the cabinet style or are there certain colors, finishes, or textures that appeal to you?

Not sure where to start? Stop by the Inspired Remodels showroom. Get inspiration from the pros who know what it takes to turn kitchen dreams into real dream kitchens.
