Puget Sound Remodelling- Five Reasons to Redesign Your Home

(Seattle, WA – March 22 , 2006) – What do you do when the only art in your house is from IKEA, your living room couch is actually your old college futon, and your bedroom looks more like a prison cell than a peaceful sanctuary? Hire a re-designer. Many people like Kremiere Jackson, a software marketing manager, are taking advantage of this fast-growing trend inspired by popular home improvement TV shows. Newly single and having just moved into a new home, Jackson wanted to give a fresh new look to her old furniture to match her new lifestyle. She called Eduardo Mendoza, a local re-designer, for a shot of inspiration. In a matter of hours, Mendoza helped take Jackson’s home from average to grand.

“The transformation in my house was amazing and I didn’t even have to buy any new furniture,” said Jackson. “My redesigned home feels much more comfortable now because I’m able to use the space in the rooms in better ways. The best part is that I’ve had lots of compliments from friends and family.”

Five Reasons to Redesign Your Home

If the space in your home feels uncomfortable, either too crowded or too sparse, you should give redesign a try. According to Mendoza, there are five benefits of redesigning your home:

1. Your home will have a completely different look without spending money on new furnishings

2. The rooms in your home will feel much more comfortable and livable

3. Your home will seem more spacious because you have maximized the floor space

4. You will be able to use your redesigned rooms in new and different ways

5. You will get instant compliments from everyone who sees your redesigned home

“Most of my clients are people that can’t afford a high-priced interior decorator or don’t want some interior designer coming in and telling them they don’t know how to decorate and need to throw out everything they already have in their home,” said Mendoza. “I don’t work like that. Most homeowners don’t need to buy all new furnishings. They usually already have great art and furniture in their house, but just aren’t arranging it in a way to make their home look its best.”

When Mendoza works with his clients to redesign their house, he combines influences from his home country, Peru, with what is popular in Seattle. In this way he helps create warm and inviting homes with rooms that are clean and uncluttered and reflect the owners’ personal style.

The Value of Redesigning: A Sold Home

There is no set fee for redesigning services. The cost depends on the size of the home and amount of existing furnishings. Compared to the return on investment, home redesigning is relatively inexpensive and offers significant value to most home owners and even realtors looking to help owners sell their homes. Project rates usually start at $800 a day and typical jobs can run from one to three days.
