The selection of materials such as brick, stone, wood siding, or stucco, and finishes like flooring, wall treatments, cabinetry, and countertops define the overall aesthetic appeal of a home.
Balancing the size and dimensions of different architectural elements, such as windows, doors, and building mass, is essential for an aesthetically pleasing home design.
The roof designs, such as gable, hip, mansard, or shed roofs serve functional purposes and contribute to architectural aesthetics by enhancing the overall style and character of the home.
The design and placement of windows significantly impact the exterior and interior aesthetics while maximizing natural light and views.
Architectural details and ornamentation, such as decorative moldings, add character and visual interest to a home.
Balancing aesthetic considerations with practicality and usability is critical in designing a visually pleasing home with an efficient layout and functionality.
Consider a versatile design to enable you to update the home as needs change to ensure ongoing suitability and safety for aging-in-place. Here is a Los Altos home design guide to help you in the process:
With years of experience in designing and constructing homes, Done Right Home Remodeling can provide insightful guidelines on how to use modern design elements to create focal points in your home’s interior design;
| Design element | Detail |
| Furniture | Strategically placed pieces of furniture can influence the focal point. Consider placing sofas and tables around a fireplace to draw traffic to this space. |
| Accents | Use accents to enhance the visual appeal and elevate the feel of the space. For example, an artwork can be hung above a fireplace to emphasize the existing focal point. |
| Lighting | Strategically placed lighting fixtures can create emphasis by illuminating the room’s design features, such as artwork, dining tables, or archways. |
| Color | Color accents can be used to draw attention to an existing focal point. For example, dark paint surrounding a fireplace can emphasize contrast and make for an impressive focus point. |
| Texture, shape, and pattern | i. Consider an exposed brick wall, a heavily textured rug, or interior plants, as they can stand out and add texture to the space.
ii. Opt for a square table amongst a group of circular stools to introduce contrast that will emphasize a focal point. iii. Altering the pattern, for example, breaking horizontal lines used in the design with vertical lines, will stand out as a focal point. |
