Category News

You've finally purchased your dream property and it's time to style it to perfection. Aska Property Group's developments have made your task at hand simpler than ever by having some of the best contractors. Attention to detail is ensured each step of the way and you can select from top-notch finishes in the latest designs offered by the developers. Once you've outlined your favourite modern decor tips, you can begin planning an ultra-chic, suburban home. 
 
How to find a colour scheme 
 
As our homes are our sanctuary and one of our most prized investments, pick colours you enjoy feeling relaxed in and can easily work with your chosen furniture. It's best to allow neutrals to be the sounding board as they create a wonderful backdrop for most decor themes. Shades of cream, tan, grey, beige and pastels add a feel of minimalism and encourage you to keep your home clutter-free. Modern homes are known for having their owners' individual stamps of approval so don't be afraid to mix and match your neutrals with an injection of your personality. A classy way to do this would be to select souvenirs to display from your travels that hold a sentimental story, or go a step further and get personalised items such as soap dispensers or towels monogrammed with your initials in the bathrooms. These little touches go a long way in making a home feel unique. 
 
Classic inspiration 
 
As interior design moves toward a cleaner, natural aesthetic in 2023, you will want to incorporate fabrics and materials such as cotton and rattan. This will give any new home a sense of lived-in appeal and immediately makes one feel more comfortable in a new space. Modern homes that boast brand-new fittings can seamlessly look and feel more expensive when paired with simple, good-quality pieces of furniture and appliances. This is a fresh approach to modern decor that has mass appeal and is ideal for marketing your home if you ever think about listing your property. 
 
Go bold with design
 
Drawing the eye to stand-out elements in a room is having a moment in modern decor. You can add artwork, oversized mirrors, cushions in bold colours or prints or a feature wall of family photographs, wallpaper, or an interesting shelving design with ornaments. Shelving is a fantastic way of adding decorative, yet functional furniture to a room. 
 
As a storage solution, movable shelving is convenient and a talking point for guests depending on the items you choose to put on display. It can be used to showcase awards and personal milestones, collections of books or introduce greenery and fragrance to your home with indoor, potted plants. 
 
Make your home work for you 
 
As more people are working from home, it would be a good idea to create an environment that is as tech-savvy and work-friendly as possible. Modern home offices feature comfortable, yet attractive chairs, multi-purpose desks with built-in organisers and reliable Wi-Fi routers that enable you to get the job done. You can create a mini corporate atmosphere by getting a filing cabinet, mini coffee machine or water cooler that would come in handy if you often meet with clients or colleagues. 
 
Choose a completed home 
 
Aska Property Group works closely with developers who specialise in completely fitted, new homes. You will have the freedom and luxury to move into a stylish property with appliances, warranties and a range of other fully-inclusive aspects. In this instance, your interior decor task is to build around the existing top-class installations.
