Editor’s note

C

hances are you’ve noticed the colour purple popping up everywhere.

Pantone – the worldwide authority on colour – unveiled Ultra Violet as its pick for 2018.

In the short time since the announcement, the bright hue has been surfacing in everything from home design to beauty and fashion.

And, we love it!

This month we show you exactly how to have some fun and incorporate the colour purple into your own property.

From interior design to DIY projects, this edition we also take a look at the latest trends in flooring.

With endless choices, it can be difficult to choose the right product to suit your style and budget.

One flooring product that hasn’t lost its popularity through the years is terrazzo. Exuding sophistication and style, it is also durable and relatively easy to maintain. The great news is that it’s now easier than ever to install in your home. Turn to page 16 for more details.

Until next month, happy renovating. I hope you enjoy this month’s magazine.

COVER STORY //

DESIGN WATCH

HOW TO Not sure how to incorporate purple into your home? We have a few tips on how to use the royal colour.

Year on year, interior and architectural design continues to evolve. The expert stylists, designers, architects and engineers behind home design are constantly breaking the mould, coming up with fresh and cutting edge ideas. As with the fashion industry, design concepts never die, instead often being brought back to life years later with a contemporary twist. With 2018 now in full swing, My Renovation takes a look at the colours and trends that will influence home design in the coming 12 months.

It’s sure to be an exciting year.

The colour purple Each year thousands of keen decorators, designers and stylists anticipate the launch of Pantone’s Colour of the Year, which sets the tone for the 12 months ahead. The Pantone Color Institute – the worldwide authority on colour – has declared 2018 to be the year of purple and we couldn’t be more excited.

Critics are celebrating the launch of Ultra Violet, a vibrant blue-purple hue, which is already shaping makeup, fashion and home trends around the globe. Described as inventive and imaginative, Pantone says the colour is “a dramatically provocative and thoughtful purple shade”. The company says the colour “communicates originality, ingenuity and visionary thinking”.

SHADE – Whether bold or subtle, purple can look great. Which direction you choose to go in should depend on your personality and preference. If you prefer muted colours, use soft tones in simple ways.

ACCESSORISE - Scour vintage stores to dig up unique pieces such as jewellery boxes, glasses, mirrors and lanterns.

COLOUR MATCH – Couple purple with soft greys and jewel-tone hues such as emerald.

COLOUR PSYCHOLOGY – Colours can stir emotion. Familiarise yourself with the different colours and how each can affect your mood. Warm purple is calming, while a deep tone will evoke a sense of wealth and sophistication.

We love this emerging style!

Select one colour and use two shades to create a striking look. A feature wall and piece of furniture or artwork is the key to success.

Shape shifters Geometrics will once again be a major focus in interior design. However, we are moving away from sharp lines to something a little softer – circles. Introduce the shape in patterns, furniture style and artwork.

EXPERT ADVICE //

WHERE TO NOW? In our first renovating column, we set out to determine why you would consider undertaking a renovation.

Understanding the rationale behind a reno, helps determine some key aspects of any potential renovation.

Namely, is it viable, what budget you should set and the design direction you should take?

Having considered your why, you will have now determined if you should simply stay in the house as is, move house, renovate and stay, or renovate for profit either to rent or to sell.

If after weighing up all the factors you have decided a renovation is not viable and you will simply stay in the house, then your job is done.

If after consideration you determine it is best to move house, typically when looking to upsize or modify a house to meet changing family needs rather than go through the disruption of renovating,

then it is best to analyse the market to determine a good time to sell.

Deciding to sell usually also entails a little bit of sprucing up of your property – lawns and gardens trimmed or replanted, paint touch ups and excess belongings taken away.

Your real estate agent of choice will usually recommend a few jobs to be completed to improve your sale or rental return.

Kylie Bond, sales agent with McGrath, advises conducting at least eight mini-renovation tasks prior to putting a property on the market.

These include clearing rubbish and excess items from the home and yard; washing walls, floors and driveways; clearing or planting plants if needed for better street appeal; applying fresh paint in a neutral colour; replacing old curtains or blinds; replacing bulbs if dull and lightshades; change floor coverings if needed; install airconditioning and give the kitchens

ball game to be discussed in next month’s column.

If you’ve considered your why and decided that renovating to improve financial return is your renovation raison d’être, then you need to be financially astute, design savvy and know some reliable and affordable tradespeople.

Finally, if you choose to renovate and stay, you can really have some fun.

You must now start to prioritise exactly what improvements you would like to see in your existing property – whether it be add a rumpus room, convert a carport, install an ensuite, put in a pool or add on a parent’s retreat.

The options are endless.

Now that you have decided your why, which way you are headed in terms of whether you will undertake a renovation, and for what purpose, we can look forward to analysing the renovation process in more detail.

McGrath’s Kylie Bond says if you choose to sell instead of renovate, minirenovating tasks should still be done.

BATHROOM // Good advice The experts at Your Asset Renovations believe that good tiling advice will help make a small bathroom feel bigger. Did you know that floor-to-ceiling tiles, as well as large tiles, will make a space feel larger? This is due to the scale and proportion of large tiles tricking the eye into believing the space is bigger.

For more visit yourassetrenovations.com.au

PRODUCT ALERT This tall mirrored cabinet features a pencil-edge finish, which we love. It also has two height adjustable shelves.

It’s from Highgrove Bathrooms.

KITCHEN //

HOW TO RENOVATE YOUR KITCHEN LIKE A PROFESSIONAL Kitchens sell homes. They are, after all, the heart of the home. However, they are also one of the most expensive spaces to renovate. Interior designer Leah Delaforce of Delaforce Interior Design shares her tips and before and after project images to help readers achieve the kitchen they desire. Visit delaforcedesign.com.au for more information.

before

1. Hire a professional. My clients engage me as an interior designer.

Even if you decide to project manage the renovation yourself, you can save yourself a lot of time, money and heartache with some solid professional advice. Interior designers are up to date with the latest in design, fittings, surfaces and technology.

2. Set a budget and stick to it. By adding a small amount for project hiccups it can ease the stress. You never know what is behind that old wall or cupboard you are about to pull down.

3. Plan the layout. You need to consider how you live, work, cook, store products and shop.

4. Get rid of the clutter. I repeat myself a lot on this one but it is a good time to purge all of those silly kitchen gadgets that never see the light of day.

5. Choose colours and textures which complement the rest of your home or planned renovation style.

6. Use surfaces that are robust and easy to clean. The client of this kitchen (pictured) has children and also loves cooking. Therefore, the end result had to be beautiful yet functional.

7. Find the trades you are comfortable with. Source a minimum of three quotes from kitchen suppliers, an electrician, plumber, stone mason, painter and tiler.

8. Consider family life and plan how you will function in the home while the renovation is taking place. Also, keep kids safe and away from the project area.

Seriously. Bring in anything you like, we’ll match it!

NATURAL STONE AND CACTUS With the neutral tone trend set to remain popular into 2018, more designers are pairing succulents with natural stone to offset what would otherwise be a bland colour palette. With so many décor items suiting this stylish combination, it is easy to recreate the look.

Bedroom bliss Bringing natural stone into the bedroom is made easy with the Hamptons range at Domayne. The Australian-made furniture features natural stone atop Victorian ash and Tasmanian oak to give a sophisticated style. Placing cactus planters on the bedside tables will complete the look.

Pretty pots Succulents are easy to keep indoors and require very little maintenance, so choosing the perfect pot will be the only thing you have to worry about.

Harvey Norman has a selection of gorgeous natural stone planters that will suit any home.

Go vertical For those with a bigger budget to play with, installing a feature wall made with natural stone wall tiles will give instant wow factor. Visit your local supplier for pricing and colour options.

LAUNDRY //

Storage is king Storage is the key to a good laundry. When planning your renovation project, take into account how much space is allocated for cupboards. If you are working with a small area, introduce shelving in creative ways.

DIY We love the practicality of this idea.

Hooks are available in all shapes, sizes and styles.

From vintage to sleek and modern, you will find the right look for your laundry.

Let it dry Install a small, pull-out drying rack above the washing machine. This way you can use it as required and not worry about a drying horse taking up floor space.

tip

Need extra storage? Install a narrow and tall shelving rack behind the door. Use it to store paper towelling, cleaning rags, pegs and other bits and pieces.

FLOORING //

TREND ALERT

Terrazzo

Did you know…

Hexagon, square or oblong terrazzo tiles can easily transform the walls of any room. Check out the texture and life these tiles create to enhance this bathroom.

Reminiscent of a shopping centre floor, one of the biggest reemerging trends in homes for 2018 is terrazzo. The Italian flooring system has an enviable versatility that allows for complete personalisation of any space. Renovators can choose a simple palate to complement a minimalist design or go all out with elaborate designs in any colour imaginable.

Prepare to see more terrazzo-inspired flooring spread throughout homes this year.

What is terrazzo?

Terrazzo flooring is created by embedding aggregates of stone, glass, and marble, in cement or a resin base to achieve a beautiful, strong and durable surface. When installed traditionally, three levels are created on top of a waterproof base – a layer of cement, the desired aggregate mix which is then buffered and smoothed out and then topped with a sealant. This is not a procedure for the average DIYer, but luckily, terrazzo floor tiles that can be installed in a similar way to linoleum tiles are coming on to the market.

Traditional terrazzo vs tiles As it is when weighing up all options, there are pros and cons for both methods of installing a terrazzo floor.

Professionally installed (traditional) Pro: Your flooring will be long lasting and you will have the flexibility to create a bespoke pattern and colour palette that perfectly match your home and existing décor.

Terrazzo tiles Pro: Cost-effective, long lasting and easily installed or replaced if needed.

Con: The compromise here is that you will have to work with the limited designs and colour palettes available through your local supplier.

Con: The high level of skill needed from your tradesperson and the labour-intensive preparation and installation process means it is a very expensive process.

MIX IT UP! We love this use of terrazzo tiles coupled with wood-look linoleum tiles to create an eye-catching design. Let your creativity run wild.

WE LOVE

New paint product launches Australian property owners are facing an ever-growing increase in graffiti where the estimated cost of vandalism to Australians is upwards of $2.7 billion a year.

Interestingly, these funds are allocated to graffiti removal on public property, not private property, meaning home owners are left to their own devices to remove tagging.

However, there are steps homeowners can take to stop property damage because of graffiti, as well as minimise the risk of their home being targeted by vandals.

Dulux has launched a revolutionary high-performance DIY product, Dulux Precision Anti Graffiti Coating, which enables graffiti to be cleaned off again and again without having to call in the professionals.

“We are empowering homeowners with our new Dulux Precision Anti Graffiti Coating because they can now manage any potential vandal attacks easily and cost effectively,” says Briana Keenahan, Dulux senior brand manager.

The product is a heavy-duty clear gloss coating, providing long-term surface protection against graffiti. It is specifically formulated to be applied to a variety of bare and painted surfaces of your home’s exterior – from the fence, front door and to the wall.

When the coating is applied directly to bare and uncoated surfaces the coating is permanent.

Aerosol paints can then simply be removed with a household high-pressure water cleaner.

Ultra Premium Expressions in ceiling white from Haymes Paint is a 99 per cent volatile organic compound-free product with no fumes. It provides great coverage and minimises light reflection. It will give new life to your ceiling or walls. Visit haymespaint.com.au

\\ WIDE WORLD OF LIGHTS SPECIAL FEATURE

Ceiling fan master class by WWOL After 22 years in the ceiling fan industry the WWOL staff have seen dramatic changes in the design and technologies associated with new products coming to market. Products now have better form, function and aesthetics, ultimately trying to achieve a balance over all three key areas. WWOL is a designer and manufacturer of the Air Design ceiling fan brand, and is at the forefront of the latest designs being brought to market. One thing is certain – a fan is simply not just a fan anymore.

DC VS AC CEILING FANS At a time when efficiency is on the tip of every consumer’s tongue, even in times of high temperatures, the question being asked is: how do you keep cool at a reasonable cost?

Traditionally AC (alternating current) ceiling fans were once the only option for consumers.

The consumption of energy was in range of 50 to 120 watts to operate a ceiling fan, which is still a far more efficient option than air-conditioning.

However, it’s not as efficient

as the latest DC (direct current) technology.

With the introduction of DC ceiling fans came the addition of five to six speed remote controls, giving you more control over the speeds of the fan. And yet, power consumption is as little as 4.8 to 32 watts.

Having a remote has an additional benefit. You can also install an LED light, in lieu of just an existing light point, with no extra wiring required.

WIDE WORLD OF LIGHTS SPECIAL FEATURE //

Timber vs metal and plastic ceiling fans Ceiling fan manufacturers in the early 1990s offered the consumer just two choices of product – timber rattan ceiling fans (which gave little to no air flow) or three- to four-blade aluminium ceiling fans (which produced tremendous amounts of air flow).

Therefore the precedent was set for most consumers. If you wanted aesthetics you would lean towards timber, and if you wanted function you would lean toward metal-bladed ceiling fans.

However, with new technology, things have changed. With materials such as ABS or air-foil plastic being used for the blade or entire fan, the deciding factors that determined how the fan produced airflow have changed.

Other major factors consumers take into account when considering fans is how well the product will last in a damp or corrosive environment.

In these situations marine-ply timber, ABS plastic or 316 marine grade stainless are the perfect materials for minimal maintenance products.

Because ceiling fans have many moving parts, it’s really important to purchase a quality model. But quality doesn’t have to cost a fortune. You simply need to find the right brand that offers quality ceiling fan product to suit your individual requirements.

Common problems associated with inferior products are wobbling, humming, motor burn and deterioration of the blades.

Keep in mind that all products sold through WWOL are offered with an in-home warranty, which means no cost to the consumer if something fails within the specified warranty period.

Speak with a WWOL consultant to find the right product for your situation and specific requirements.

GET THE LOOK Revamping your interior design can cost as little – or as much – as you like. This design demonstrates how a simple splash of paint to an old chest of drawers, an inexpensive chair and a throw rug can have a major impact when styled correctly. This look is perfect for a hall entry or reading corner.

WE LOVE! The Cindy scatter cushion from Domayne.

TIP Choosing to update your interior doesn’t mean that you have to turf everything. If you have a few favourite items such as a painting, table or vanity, incorporate them into your new design. With the right balance, a mix of old and new can look terrific.

WALL ART Dull walls? Brighten them up with a quirky and contemporary painting.

The Flamingos Oil Painting from Domayne will add life to any room in the home. Visit domayne.com.au
