Your home is your sanctuary, and it should be everything you’ve ever wanted it to be. From a cozy bedroom, to a large and functional kitchen, a home is easy to customize for your exact needs. This is where home renovation can come in, as it is what can make your dream home come alive.

If you are in the market for some custom home inspiration, here are a few unique and interesting home renovation ideas to try out this fall.

Make over your loft or attic into a lounge

Do you have a loft or an attic area that is just being used for a storage space? Well, get rid of all of that clutter and transform the loft into a reading nook filled with pillows. Go the extra mile by installing a television up there, and you’ll soon have a space that is perfect for a perpetual slumber party.

Turn your stairs into a storage area

Stairs, while functional, have a lot of empty space associated with them. To ensure you are putting every inch of your home to its best use, turn the area under your stairs into a storage space. Some good ideas include making custom bookshelves to put underneath the stairs on one side, adding floating shelves to show off any nicknacks, or even installing storage underneath the stairs itself for bigger items like bedding.

Add baseboard drawers into your kitchen

It seems that you can never have enough space in your kitchen, as there are always small miscellaneous items that need a home. So instead of having to dedicate larger cabinets for these items, consider adding baseboard drawers to maximize space. These are smaller drawers that are put underneath your average sized drawers, and are perfect for baking pans, Tupperware, and foil.

Go green

There are so many ways to protect the environment nowadays, so why don’t you invest in a green, eco-friendly home remodel? Not only can you use specific natural resources like metal roofing instead of typical shingles to save energy and electricity, it can pay to go the extra step and invest in residential solar panels. These simple additions can use the sun’s natural light to help power your home, which will make both Mother Nature and your wallet smile!

Go cross-functional with bookcases instead of end tables

End tables tend not to have a ton of storage space on them. Again, you can pack the most punch in your room by choosing to use bookcases in lieu of end tables. The best part about this idea is that bookcases are quite versatile without losing their function. So that means you can either stack a bookcase on each end of the couch, or wrap the couch in shelving on three sides.

Install floor to ceiling tile in your bathroom

Add a unique, nautical feel to your bathroom by choosing to install floor to ceiling glass tile in lieu of wallpaper. Doing so will create the feeling that you are on the beach, and what could be better? This decorating hack is great for those who have small bathrooms, as it really packs a punch in no time at all, making any tiny room look spacious and large.

The best thing about home remodeling is that it can be completely customizable to your specific budget, goals, and size of your home. So next time you are in the mood to change up your home, use some of these ideas to bring an interesting look to your interior design. Remember, there is no such thing as being too creative when it comes to custom home remodeling!
