Riassunto

Unless you are in the enviable position of commissioning a house designed to your own specifications you are probably living in a home that was built decades, if not centuries, ago. Yet little in the way we live today is catered for in the traditional home. What we require from our living space has led us to rethink the way we use and design the interiors of our homes to make them work for us and to make them more contemporary. The home today is more likely to need large areas in which to entertain, a home office, play area, storage and display for the latest home entertainment gadgets, a sense of space and light and all in conjunction with an increasingly disparate, fluid household (divorcees remarrying, step children, home workers, live-in nannies, couples without children, singletons). But while many of us have the right ideas, we can't always quite see a way of executing them. This is where The Home Modernised steps in as it shows you just how easy it can be to transform your home into a modern living space.
