Are you considering expanding your property with a sunroom installation? If so, you’ve got lots to think about! Sunrooms are the perfect way to enjoy the outdoors in comfort all year round. With a sunroom installation, you can bask in beautiful natural light and enjoy undisturbed views of your garden. Many modern sunrooms can be made to your specific requirements, and it is rare to see two identical sunrooms. Alongside customising your sunroom design, you can put more of a personal stamp on your space by choosing unique decorations and accessories.
If you have recently invested in a sunroom installation or are considering expanding your home soon, we have got some decoration inspiration for you here.
If you are looking to create a more private space, you may want to dress the large panes of double glazing with curtains. To maintain a bright and airy atmosphere, why not choose lightweight and brightly coloured curtains? Yellow, green and cream colours are a perfect choice. The natural tones can be the perfect way to complement your garden views. Fitting curtains in your sunroom can create a more intimate and private feel in the evenings, but bright colours will also look great when the curtains are open during the day.
House plants have been growing in popularity ever since the pandemic, and a sunroom is the perfect environment for plants to thrive. Put your green fingers to work and bring your sunroom to life with shelves and window ledges full of gorgeous greenery. For a true greenhouse vibe, include a small table or cabinet where you can store all your tools for primping and preening your beautiful plants.
Add a truly unique touch to your sunroom by upcycling old garden furniture. Fun upcycling projects include painting garden benches in bold colours, turning old car tires into interesting plant pots and sanding down a worse-for-wear coffee table into something that looks as good as new. If you are creative, let your imagination run wild and kit out your sunroom with completely unique pieces of upcycled furniture.
Sunrooms are often flooded in natural light and have a relaxing and peaceful ambience. If you work remotely, why not ditch the dining room table and head to the sunroom instead? You can find the most serene spot and place a fold out desk and comfortable chair there. With beautiful views to gaze at between work calls and zoom meetings, we can’t think of a better place to work than a quiet sunroom. Contemporary sunrooms are thermally efficient, meaning your workspace will remain a comfortable temperature all year round.
If you are thinking your sunroom should be a place to relax and not work, creating a cosy corner is the perfect way to use this space. Decorate your sunroom with plenty of soft furnishings for the ultimate relaxing vibe. Think plush rugs, throw blankets everywhere, piles of squishy cushions. You can add a small bookcase to your space and even set up a hot drink station. Make your sunroom as cosy as possible and we are sure you will have no problem whittling away the hours, lost in a good book and relaxing in the stunning natural light.
Do you enjoy entertaining guests? If you love to host dinner parties or evening drinks, your sunroom could be the perfect place to socialise. Popular decoration trends include chic drinks cabinets, wicker dining table and chair sets and plants dotted around the space. Try to opt for a minimalist approach, that way your guests won’t be distracted from the beautiful garden views.
If you want to create a truly unique sunroom, you need to add to the original installation. For example, you can create a rustic atmosphere by adding wooden planks to the walls and ceiling. Alternatively, you can transform your space with funky flooring or paint the walls bold colours. You could also cover the walls in interesting wallpaper or paint one wall dark to really make the lighter areas pop. Sunrooms are extremely versatile, and you can fill them with whatever furniture you like.
Unlike your garden chairs and tables, the furniture in your sunroom is well protected from the natural elements and will not deteriorate due to weather exposure. Layer up rugs, add a chaise lounge for decadent relaxation or experiment with different lighting fixtures to create the perfect ambience.
