BEHIND THE SCENES
STAGING A small bedroom with Julie O.
A tiny bedroom can be difficult to stage but with a little creativity, the space can become a selling point for your home!

Consider the demographics of the neighborhood. If it is mainly families, a nursery or young child’ s room is a good choice. If the residents are mainly young professionals, an office oasis may be a more effective use of the space.

Choose a monochromatic color scheme. This will be calming to the eye and will create the illusion of a larger space.
Select furniture that will take up less visual space. A nightstand with open legs, for example. Avoid heavy pieces like sleigh or canopy beds.
All the behind the scenes work that goes into preparing for your three day renovation takes time and careful planning. The team at Modular Home Additions specializes in making the process as seamless and easy as possible for the homeowner but it is important to begin planning early to ensure you leave plenty of time for them to complete all the steps that are required before they can actually begin working on your home!
With a goal to make home renovations as fast and efficient as possible, Modular Home Additions has developed a unique process that allows them to complete the actual addition in just three days but many homeowners are not aware of the time and effort that must go into preparing beforehand. This includes an initial design consultation followed by a detailed quote, a feasibility study to determine if there are any issues with footings and in-house preliminary design drawings. Modular’ s team provides a complete 3D rendering so you can see exactly what your home will look like postrenovation and they can suggest any necessary adjustments to help prevent costly problems.
Once the design has been finalized, city permits are required. In some areas, this waiting time for approval can take months; even up to a year or more! Modular Home Additions takes care of obtaining necessary city permits, saving homeowners the hassle of waiting in lines at city offices or sitting on hold on the phone with questions.
Finally, in order for their three day process to work, the majority of the building is done off-site in their facility. This allows them to show up prepared to complete the entire addition in just three days. This means less time away from your home and less interruptions to your everyday life!- Text by Zakiya Kassam

Choose one or two larger pieces instead of multiple smaller pieces. Too many smaller pieces will eat up the space and make the room look cluttered.
Take advantage of vertical space by choosing furniture that is tall rather than wide. This draws the eye up and gives the illusion of a larger room.- Text
