In the new year, which design styles are more high-end, textured, and timeless? Today, we list 3 popular interior design styles along with their characteristics and renovation precautions to help you choose your favorite style during the peak renovation season without common pitfalls.

There are countless design styles, and everyone’s preferences vary. To make it easier and avoid choice paralysis, we have compiled 3 popular, high-end, and timeless design styles for your reference:

Modern Minimalist Style is always timeless, requiring no high budget to achieve a refined and high-end attitude. It centers on “less is more,” emphasizing functionality, spatial blank space, and clean lines, pursuing a balance between practicality and aesthetics.

Light French Cream Style combines cream style and French style, retaining the high aesthetics and warm atmosphere of cream style while appropriately adding French design elements, reducing its heaviness, and blending cream color schemes with retro elements, making it less prone to boredom and outdatedness.

After choosing a design style, we must remind everyone not to think you can start renovation directly! Renovation is a big project. To avoid pitfalls, be sure to check out the renovation precautions we have carefully prepared:

To avoid mistakes, you must do your homework before renovation. Besides determining the design style, you need to plan the functional areas of your home and the related budget in advance, then decide on the renovation model. Even if you hand it all over to a renovation company, we recommend learning the basic renovation processes and understanding common materials to avoid being “cheated with inferior products.” If you really don’t have time to learn slowly or are afraid you still don’t understand, you can choose a reliable and trustworthy construction team. For example, as the important background of the whole house—the walls, once mistakes occur, not only is subsequent handling troublesome, but it also affects the aesthetics of the entire design style. Skshu Paint’s immediate living one-stop painting service was born to solve such troubles, with seven major service advantages, online appointment, fast response, and free on-site inspection.

Starting renovation, you cannot let your guard down. Often, it is because of some details that renovation problems occur, affecting the overall design style. For example, walls, as mentioned earlier, are an indispensable part of whole-house renovation, especially the choice of materials. Improper selection may lead to wall cracking, peeling, mold, etc., later, or the material and color may not match the overall design style, affecting aesthetics. If you want high-end, textured, and timeless, we would recommend artistic paint with its own texture, combining aesthetics and practicality. Here is a Skshu preferred artistic paint that matches our Skshu immediate living service, and its Pine Stone color pairs well with the styles mentioned above.

Moreover, after application, it has high hardness, so even if scratched by sharp objects, it is not easy to damage, and the wall life will be longer. Daily maintenance can be done with clean water wiping, with high scrub resistance, capable of wiping for a hundred years without breaking.

After construction is completed, and renovation enters the final stage, attention is also needed. One is to confirm if there are any problems with the whole house renovation and provide feedback in time; the other is to do ventilation and odor removal effectively to remove odors and residual harmful substances in the house before finally moving in. For ventilation issues, using Skshu products with health+ standards, after painting is completed and the paint film is dry, only 8 hours of ventilation and odor removal are needed to meet the moving-in standard, which is very time-saving and ideal for those who want to move in quickly.

Xuan Yi Home Renovation: Transforming a 90sqm Old Apartment in Huangpu District into a Spacious and Timeless Living Space with Professional Interior Design

As a non-professional in home decoration, I believe that interior design isn’t just about following trends but creating a timeless space that withstands the test of time—I don’t want to grow tired of it after just a couple of years.

Six years ago, I purchased a 90-square-meter apartment in Huangpu District as a marital home. Over time, the decor felt outdated, so I decided to demolish and renovate it completely.

Image

With no time to select materials or supervise construction, and fearing a DIY disaster, I opted to hire a renovation company to save hassle.

However, I was wary of unscrupulous firms. After researching 11 companies online and offline for over two months, I narrowed it down to four for in-person visits. Some were evasive about quotes and whether they had in-house workers, but Xuan Yi stood out by providing worker rosters, individual wage bills, and transparent contracts listing material brands, models, and prices. They also showcased past renovation cases, which felt reliable.

In the old living room, a partition cabinet made the space feel disjointed and blocked light from the balcony, creating a dim and oppressive atmosphere. Xuan Yi’s designers removed the cabinet and extended tile flooring to the balcony, allowing natural light to flood in, making the area appear brighter and more spacious. Accent lights added a cozy, hill-like ambiance to the walls.

Image

A earth-toned sofa paired with a lounge chair lets me relax while enjoying the view and sunlight. To save space, the other side of the balcony features built-in custom cabinets for a washer-dryer set, flattening the surface and storing杂物.

Image

The original kitchen was narrow and cramped, with poor ventilation causing smoke issues. By enclosing the balcony and merging it with the kitchen, the space expanded, making meal prep convenient for two people.

Image

The refrigerator fits perfectly into a high cabinet, saving space, while top-mounted cabinets prevent dust buildup and reduce cleaning needs.

The small master bedroom lacked storage for clothes, so we compressed the master bathroom to create an L-shaped walk-in closet, keeping the bedroom tidy and the bathroom functional.

Despite the limited area, Xuan Yi’s design transformed the old, cramped space into a warm and expansive home, with every square meter utilized efficiently—the 90-square-meter apartment now feels like 120 square meters.

Xuan Yi Home Renovation: Transform Your 90m² Apartment in Huangpu into a Spacious and Timeless Living Space with Professional Design

As a non-professional in home decoration, I believe that renovation isn’t about following trends but creating a livable space that stands the test of time. It should be durable and not easily become outdated, so you won’t get tired of it after just a few years.

I purchased a 90-square-meter apartment in Huangpu District as a marital home six years ago. Over time, the interior became worn-out, so I decided to demolish and completely renovate it.

Due to lack of time for material selection and supervision, plus concerns about DIY failures, I opted to hire a professional renovation company to save hassle.

However, I was wary of unreliable firms. After researching 11 companies online and offline for over two months, I narrowed it down to 4 for in-person visits. Some companies were evasive when discussing quotes and whether they had in-house workers.

Ultimately, only Xuan Yi provided transparent details like worker directories and individual fee records. Their contract clearly listed material brands, models, and prices, and they shared past renovation cases, which felt trustworthy.

In the old living room, a partition cabinet made the space feel divided and blocked light from the balcony, creating a dim and oppressive atmosphere.

To save space, the other side of the balcony features built-in cabinets in a recessed area for a washer-dryer set, keeping the surface flush and providing storage for clutter.

The original kitchen was narrow and cramped, with poor ventilation causing smoke issues. By enclosing the balcony and merging it with the kitchen, the space expanded significantly, making cooking convenient for two people.

Expanded kitchen layout

The refrigerator fits perfectly into a tall cabinet, saving floor space, and wall cabinets extend to the ceiling to prevent dust accumulation, reducing cleaning needs.

Kitchen with integrated fridge

The main bedroom was small with insufficient storage, while the bathroom had extra space. By reducing the bathroom area, an L-shaped walk-in closet was added, making the bedroom tidier and the bathroom still functional.
