5 Ways to Personalize Your New Construction Home 

A new construction home is like a blank canvas: everything is brand new, clean and fresh. Though the exterior of your new construction home may have to look similar to your neighbours, the details and the designs of the interior can be unique to you. 

Here are some simple ways to personalize your new build: 

1. Paint or upgrade your front door. The front door is the first impression people will have of your home, so it should be welcoming and reflect you. Consider changing or painting your front door in a colour and style that not only elevates your curb appeal, but also brings out your personality. 

2. Upgrade your fixtures. Unless you are building a custom home where you can specify all the fixtures and finishes, you should consider upgrading your builder grade fixtures (e.g. lighting, door hardware, and floors). In order not to overwhelm yourself, focus on one room at a time, to ensure each space feels complete. 

3. Add some architectural features. One of the best ways to transform your new construction home from a blank canvas into a personal oasis is by adding certain architectural features, such as ceiling finishes, fireplaces, and wall applications. 

4. Add wallpaper. When you incorporate wallpaper that complements the overall decor of your home, it can be a great way to add colour, design, and texture to your space, as well as add your own personal style to your home. The possibilities are endless and you can use wallpaper on an accent wall, in a home office, or even in the hallway. 

5. Paint your walls. This is one of the most affordable and effective ways to transform your new home. If your home is still under construction, then you can ask if it can be painted using your specified colours, allowing you to move into your home with nothing to worry about.
