Bin the pot-pourri; buy chrome taps

Article Abstract:

Ultra-modern decor can play a vital role in attracting potential house purchasers. People are moving away from the traditional, cozy style of the early 1990s, and are looking instead for minimal white or cream furniture, plain window blinds rather than curtains, pale wood strip floors and semi-commercial size kitchen appliances in stainless steel. The most popular features include Sir Norman Foster designer leather or rubber door handles and low-voltage halogen lights.

More panache for your money

Article Abstract:

High street chain stores in the UK are now offering an attractive range of home furnishings. These are very fashionable and much less expensive than those available in designer homeware stores. Debenhams, for example, has a sophisticated range of home and lifestyle items, as has Next Interiors. Marks and Spencers has traditionally been associated with rather staid designs, but its latest home furnishings are both classic and stylish.
