Let your guests relax and unwind in the most extravagant style
The guest bedroom needs to be pleasant, inviting and comfortable. Other than a bedroom, it should have basic furniture, elegant home decor and luxurious touches that make it feel like home. This turned as a reality for one of our clients when his family decided to stay at a guest house during a recent family trip to Sydney.
“I had the privilege to stay at one of the incredible guest houses which was just the ideal guest-house-design that touched me due to its interior design. The contrasting coloured walls with acrylic texture coating lured me with its amazing texture giving it a luxurious touch.”
That’s when he decided to convert his additional rooms into a mini guest house. Then he turned to us for renovating the rooms. And guess what, he totally fell in love with it.

Guest house decorations that will add to your guest’s memories :

It is not just about having a luxurious bed, you need to also consider the wall, floor, and window. Make it look more dramatic by painting the walls with acrylic texture coating for a metallic look, using stencils or drawing mandala that may look artistic.

If you wish to give a rustic feel to your furniture, then decorate all your old furniture by painting it with a similar colour especially blue. Guests will appreciate if you use chalk paint to make it look more exotic yet rusty.
A classic stencil design will look great too. Add more elements in the room by including a dressing table with a mirror or a writing table with a pen holder or even a bookshelf that would be admired by book lovers.

Mini chandeliers are normally seen everywhere. Mini chandeliers or flush ceiling lights give a subtle lighting experience. If not this, then table lamps, candlestick lamps, floor or reading lamps could make you feel cozier.
