Unique features can make excellent focal points in rooms – and can inspire entire home design looks. Finding the right inspiration for your Vancouver home renovation, however, can be challenging. That is why we have put together a list of features we love, as well as ideas about how they could shape your Vancouver home renovation.

1. A statement chandelier

A statement chandelier is the perfect combination of function and fashion, not only providing you with light but also style. A chandelier best fits into a dining room but can add a unique touch to a master bathroom, hallway or entryway.

To make one the focal point of your Vancouver home renovation, hang it over a table that compliments it without competing for attention.

For a more subtle feel, keep paint colours in the room subdued.

Craving a bold look? Consider a bright accent wall that makes your statement chandelier pop.

2. A rough edge wood table

A rough edge wood table proves that features do not have to be ornate to be stunning. When properly cut and treated, a large wood table can bring a contemporary but earthy feel to your Vancouver home renovation.

Play up the natural vibe of light wood with large windows, bright lamps, and natural colours and fabrics.

3. A shabby chic bathtub

A little shabby chic goes a long way, but the right piece can make an entire Vancouver home renovation.

The key to shabby chic is to pick a feature with a classic element to contrast with the materials. For example, this bathtub’s shape elevates it, while its material brings the comfortable, down-to-earth quality.

This blend of style and comfort makes a shabby chic bathtub an ideal feature to add a touch of cool to your bathroom.

4. A classy marble island

Marble has a long association with high art, high culture, and royalty. Even today, it instantly adds a sense of luxury. That makes a marble island the ideal centrepiece for a sophisticated kitchen.

As marble can feel cold, use warm colours and natural materials to keep some coziness in the space.

If you want this look but marble is out of your price range, consider faux-marble finish options or porcelain, which are available at a much lower price point.

5. An ultra-modern headboard

In the past, centrepiece beds were generally inspired by historical styles. Today, though, we feel an ultra-modern bed is the way to go when you are looking for a feature to design a Vancouver home renovation around. Enhance this bed’s drama by keeping the majority of the decor in the room black or white, only adding a pop or two of colour.  

When designing your Vancouver home renovation around a feature, make sure that you love it

If you are creating your Vancouver home renovation around one stunning feature, you are making it the focal point of your space. Therefore, you want to make sure you will be happy looking at this feature every day and having guests notice it. In order to do this, take your time to research and select the right feature, then play it up through your other decor choices.
