Room by room inspiration
Home Office Design
Whether you love working from home or not, it has likely become a part of day-to-day life — no longer are makeshift spaces sufficient, which means there’s no better time to create your ideal home office.
Create your dream kitchen
Kitchens today are so much more than somewhere to cook. With so many demands on one busy space it’s important to plan your kitchen so that it’s practical and efficient for everyone who uses it, as well as being a beautiful and welcoming place to spend time.
Plan your ultimate bathroom
Our bathrooms are busy, complex places, they need to combine function and style — offering everything that everyone needs, in a space that everyone enjoys using. And while gorgeous tiles and sleek fittings are part of the picture, it’s the Electric Home Design that holds the key to unlocking this room’s potential.
Create the perfect home office
It’s never been more important to include a tailored workspace in your home. With more people working from home more regularly, and older children living at home longer, it’s essential to have a dedicated area in your house for inspired, productive work.
Plan a living room you’ll love
Our living rooms are multi-functional spaces — they need to switch easily between family movie nights and coffee catch-ups, online gaming sessions, sleepovers, and Sunday afternoon naps on the couch. With a little planning, you can create a living room that moves seamlessly from one activity to the next, catering to everyone’s needs.
Your hideaway haven
Our bedrooms are very personal spaces in our homes. They are where we rest and recharge at the end of each day, and where we prepare for the new day ahead.
Lighten the load
Who says doing laundry has to be a chore? A few clever additions to the electric home design for this room can take it from basic to brilliant and create a space that’s a pleasure to use.
Your great outdoors
Our back gardens are extensions of our homes — they’re places for enjoying meals, catching up with family and friends, and spending time relaxing. Whether you have a pool and room for backyard cricket, or a smaller garden with a deck and barbecue, use electric home design to enhance the outdoor living at your place.
Put your best front forward
The front of your property — from the garden to the driveway and garage — is where your home makes its all-important first impression. Good electric home design can help to boost its street appeal while deterring any unwanted visitors, and help you get the most out of your garage space too.
Make a memorable entrance
The entrance to our home plays several roles: it’s a familiar and comforting space for us at the end of the day, it welcomes guests as they arrive, and it’s a snapshot of our lifestyle. Create an entrance that speaks to your design aesthetic and adds ease to daily life with Electric Home Design that combines lighting and smart home elements from Clipsal.
Set the scene
A great dining room can switch easily between casual family meals, five-course gourmet extravaganzas with friends, and intimate dinners for two. It might also be a place for catch-up cocktails or nightly homework with the kids. Clipsal’s Electric Home Design can help you to create a dining room that will cater to every occasion.
