Condo Renovations Ottawa

From our first meeting with Ben, we knew we were making the right choice. We felt respected, listened to, and genuine excitement for the vision we had for our space. We undertook a full bathroom, living room, and kitchen renovation of our 1980’s townhome.

If the kitchen is the heart of the home, then the living room might be the lungs. The two spaces are the most popular rooms in the house and usually the place where people spend the most time. The living room is the perfect space for feeling comfortable, while the kitchen’s functionality makes it ideal for gatherings, so why not transform it into a single space? 

Open floor plans are very popular among homeowners because it combines the friendliness of the living room with the functionality of the kitchen, making your home ready for entertaining regardless of your home’s size.

The open floor plan is an architectural concept that has been dominant since about the 90s. It consists of joint common rooms forming an ample open space. Usually, the open floor plan connects the kitchen, dining room and living room. This concept has been very popular in renovations of older homes as it is a way to make the living areas more spacious and create an environment that is ideal for entertaining. It is also a popular choice among condo owners because of its functionality, sense of openness, and better traffic flow. 

There are three main configurations of open floor plans. Kitchen and dining rooms are often connected. Sometimes a kitchen island or peninsula can be used as a divider between the two spaces. Another standard configuration is connecting the dining room and the living room. There are various ways to design a visual separation between the two spaces that one of our experts can suggest. The most common option is connecting the kitchen, dining and living room. This option creates a very spacious, charming and elegant common area.

There are many advantages to renovating the floor plan and turning it into an open concept space. 

  • It improves the traffic flow, as there are no walls and doors you will need to open to go from one room to another. 
  •  Once there are no walls, interior spaces that usually don’t have windows now have more natural light coming in through the windows on the exterior walls. 
  • Since the open concept plan is so popular, it is a highly desirable feature, which means a home with this type of layout has an increased real estate value. 

 

  • Without walls in the living areas, it is easier to communicate across rooms and also easier to watch the kids, so parents can engage in their activities while supervising their children. 
  • It is possible to rearrange the space layout and furnishings whenever you want and use the area as a multifunctional space according to your needs. You can make it a family room, a home office, recreation area or any other functionality you need.
