Hiring a South Beach Interior Designer to Remake an Empty Nest

Baby boomers face two big living transitions in life: a semi-empty nest, in which children leave for school but come back on breaks, and the true empty nest, which is geared more toward retirement. A South Beach interior designer can help in both cases by re-configuring and designing your home's spaces to fit you and serve many uses. Many people want to reorganize their space to make it suit their needs, but still make their kids feel welcome upon returning, while others are ready to downsize their home or just transform that empty bedroom into the long-desired fitness room.

If you're ready for a change, here are some ways a South Beach or Williams Island interior designer can help you.

Redesigning the Kitchen

When you're raising children, the kitchen is the heart of the home and cooking is the central part of your day. After the children have left and you're left with your spouse, the kitchen can now become so much more with the help of a South Beach interior designer, who will make this space more comfortable and convenient. You may want a small office in the corner, storage that includes a large bulletin board or something else entirely.

Creating a Hobby Room

Who hasn't dreamed of finally having enough space for a dedicated hobby room? Maybe you want an area to store sporting gear, a sewing room or an area for scrap-booking. With the help of a Key Biscayne interior designer, you can transform a now vacant bedroom into a personal retreat, displaying your hobbies in an attractive way.

Space for Entertaining

Do you love having friends over to entertain? Whether you like the idea of movie night at your place, dinner parties or BBQs, a Key Biscayne interior designer can help you take advantage of your space and look forward to entertaining the people close to you. Maybe you want a large, formal dining area, a casual patio with a barbeque area or a fun theater? Discuss what you'd like to see with your designer, who will then draw up a floor plan and start pulling together the furniture and accents.

Create a Guest Room

If your children are away at college and plan to come back frequently - or you'd just like a spare bedroom for holiday guests, family members and out-of-town guests, a Williams Island interior designer can help you update a spare bedroom to make it multi-functional. Maybe it can serve as an office or craft room, with a pull-out or day bed, or maybe you'd like a dedicated guest bedroom with a comfortable, clean design that will welcome in both your children and any other guests you'll have.

There are really so many ways to redesign and update your home if you have an empty or semi-empty nest. Interior designers are experts at visualizing a space and, with your idea of what you're looking for and how you plan to use the space, they can create something that suits you completely and fits your budget.
