How to personalise your new build home

Have you recently moved into or are planning on buying a new build home and are wondering how you can put your stamp on it? 

There is a misconception that new build homes don’t have character and all look the same, but that is not the case. There are many ways you can add your personal style to a new build home and create a perfect space that reflects your personality. 

Add colour and patterns

Your new build home will come with white walls and ceilings throughout, providing you with the perfect blank canvas to start personalising your home. 

Thought of adding colour or patterns to every room in your new home might be overwhelming so maybe start with an accent wall to add a pop of colour. It’s the best way to add colour without committing to a large project. 

Display photos and art

Bring your digital photos to life by adding photos of your favourite memories to your home. Hang a path of photos leading up the stairs or create a gallery wall in your landing. Personal photos of friends and family will always bring a smile to your face and make it feel like home.

Mixing this with artwork is a great way to inject your own taste into your home. Whether that’s abstract prints or painted scenes, let it reflect your personality and add character to a room.

Add plants 

There are lots of ways you can use greenery to liven up your home, as plants help bring life into any room. You might have thought that fresh flowers are just for special occasions but not anymore. 

Treat yourself to a bouquet of fresh flowers every now and then, simply place in a vase on the kitchen table or coffee table for an instant mood booster. 

Style your hallway

If you’re struggling to think of what to do with the empty space in your hallway, why not style it up. 

Start with a stylish console table which complements your existing décor. This piece of furniture adds personality and can instantly lift a room. Add a focal point such as an oversizer mirror or print then add pieces such as a pair of lamps or ornaments to balance it out. 

If you’re thinking about how to style your console table, here are a few of our go-to tips

Don’t forget lighting

Lighting can really make or break a room. It has an important impact on the atmosphere of your home. To create a warm, cosy environment opt for warm bulb lamps, fairy lights and mood lighting. 

If you secure your new build home before or during the build process you can choose from our range of options and extras. Allowing you to personalise your home to your hearts content, creating a space that truly reflects your unique style and taste.

From interior design features to sleek appliance upgrades, to storage solutions, this is your opportunity to create a space that meets your needs, provides comfort, and truly feels like home.
