how tranquil - lovely
Love that they chose coloured chairs. Maybe paint out the door frame in a darker red colour (fun).

Pursley created these light fixtures from found objects — catfish traps the clients stumbled upon in the woods on the property.

4. An Open Layout Designing your kitchen to have a sensible and open layout is pivotal to increasing property value when you're renovating to sell. In Australia, the trend is moving toward open-plan living and multifunctional spaces. Do: Have a large open-plan space with a kitchen island if possible. Buyers often want to multitask in the kitchen. They want to cook, have their kids do their homework and socialize in it. Don't: Place your kitchen in a small and poky room. The kitchen is now often the hub of the house, and buyers want to see a kitchen that is interactive and sociable.
Resale: light, bright con't Do: Keep the space open, bright and light with white cabinetry. If you want some contrast, go for a darker bench top. Backsplashes should be kept fairly neutral too — try to introduce texture instead of color into the backsplash. The more neutral and elegant the space is, the more potential buyers you will attract.
Resale Tip 3. Light, Bright Spaces Many buyers want an open, light and airy space. A kitchen that is white makes the space feel bigger. White is also a universally appealing color and leaves a blank slate so buyers can reenvision the space.
Symmetry The eye is naturally drawn to appreciate symmetry and repetition. When you're renovating to sell, keep your kitchen cabinetry simple and appealing. Elegance has a way of being understated, and simplicity is key when you are trying to appeal to the majority of buyers. Do: Keep the wall cabinetry sizes the same where possible. Drawers look nice when they are large and expansive — if you have multiple sets, keep them the same size, with the same proportion of drawers.
Resale Tip: Excessive internal organizers aren't essential if you are planning on reselling your home. They are wonderful in adding value to your personal use of the kitchen but are not always a wise choice if you are renovating purely to sell. Internal drawer and cabinet fit-outs are often expensive, and the extra money you spend on these accessories may not come back to you when you're selling your property.
