One of the most exciting steps in the new homebuying experience is the personalization of your new home. The Huron Creek Developments Décor Studio provides new homebuyers with an extensive selection of flooring, plumbing and lighting fixtures, and custom cabinetry options that have been curated by our design concierge to help you achieve the highest level of personalization.

Here are five tips on how you can prepare for your appointment ahead of time:

Visit the Décor Studio — before you come in for your design appointment, you will receive an online information package with available options to consider prior to your selections appointment. Reviewing this will allow you to visualize your new home and will make for a seamless appointment. This is your first opportunity to see our design features in person, so take advantage of your one-on-one viewing!

Visit the model home — we use our model homes to showcase upgrades and standard features you too can include in your new home. Visiting our models in surrounding communities will allow you to see our various design features up close and personal and help ignite your own wishlist.

Ask for product samples — there’s more to selecting the design of your new home than you think. Picking a trendy new paint colour or modern backsplash is exciting, but it’s important to see if it compliments the furniture and décor you currently own. Our Décor Studio has a variety of product samples you can borrow that will allow you to better envision the design of your future space and make changes before it’s installed.

Set a budget — think of purchasing a new home like buying a car, not everyone has the same needs and preferences which is why we allow for personalization. These upgrades aren’t included in the purchase price which is why it’s important to set a budget for any upgrades you wish to include. Know before hand how much you’re willing to spend and focus on which areas of the home you will allocate those dollars towards.

Get Inspired — start a Pinterest board, buy some magazines, or follow an interior design Instagram account to start envisioning the home of your dreams! Come to your colour and upgrade appointment with these in hand so you can work with our design concierge to make your dreams come reality.

Designing your new home isn’t an easy feat, that’s why we’re here to help. Keep these five tips in mind before your colour and upgrade appointment and in the meantime, if you have any questions about our Décor Studio, reach out to homeownersupport@huroncreek.com today.
