Affordable and Appropriate Interior Design Sources

Filed under: Real-Estate

As we are drawing close the completion of the 100K House, we have been devoting more thought to the internal design of the home. After all, today that we are moving into the home, it will turn slightly of a show piece for those interested in buying a future unbuilt project based on the same concept. We’d too like to fix some unspoilt professional photos taken of the home for PR purposes, so the inner design is not something to accept gently.

Mid-Century Innovative Interior Example

And then what is the appropriate what to plan the interior of the 100K House. For the first time of all there is the budget. It simply wouldn’t appear correct to couch $25K worth of furnishings into a house whose claim to “fame” is it’s low-toned construction budget of $100K. At the same time, it would be short and irresponsible to fill up it all with IKEA and compromised thrift store finds oneself. There involves to be a balance.

In our minds, the balance is between cautiously picked out thrift store/flea market discovers, custom got to pieces, reasonably priced newfangled furniture and a few designer flings. The thrift discovers could be from local thrift stores and flea markets, but they could as well be from ebay or craigslist. The custom pieces could be mere items made by our cabinet maker, Pappajohn Woodworking , or ourselves. The reasonably priced furniture could come from internet stores, local shops and the ever of import IKEA. At last, if budget allows, we could afford to splurge on a few classical design pieces from today or 50 years ago.
