Creating character with a #dwelloctoberstudio affordable apartment bathroom refresh
We're excited to share this affordable bathroom refresh #dwelloctoberstudio recently designed for a local apartment owner. For this project, we teamed up with Lowe's, exclusively using Lowe's products to transform the bathroom. Lowe's is the perfect choice when sourcing materials for an apartment renovation like this because they offer a great selection of design-conscious fixtures and finishes at an affordable price point.

Although this one level house looked small from the exterior, it was deceivingly large on the inside, with spacious rooms and a great floor plan. The front door of the #dwelloctoberstudio mid-century modern fixer-upper opened into the living room and featured a floor-to-ceiling divider that created a separate entry area with a coat closet.

Simple #dwelloctoberstudio '90s builder grade house cosmetic updates
As part of this #dwelloctoberstudio '90s builder grade house transformation, we also updated the second floor of the home. The changes upstairs were mostly cosmetic and included new windows and doors, new white oak hardwood flooring, new trim with a clean, modern profile, and fresh white paint. It's amazing how something as simple as switching out door hardware can have such a dramatic impact on modernizing the look and feel of a home!
