Today, home renovation can turn those spaces into studies, libraries, and extra bedrooms. Homeowners are opting for foldaway walls so that space can change on a whim. Add to that the fact that flexible work schedules, mobile communications, and entrepreneurial zeal are relocating many from the office downtown to home. While wifi allows you to work from anywhere in the house, many still want a dedicated space for files, supplies, and printers and are turning to home renovations to make it happen.
Additionally, many homeowners are turning to home renovation as a means to hide the clutter. Storage space is being added under stairs, over doors, and beneath floors. Many are also turning under-appreciated nooks into built-ins for books and collections. Then, if you add some doors, you can hide both office supplies and buckets of Legos. Many are also dividing their giant master suites in order to conquer clutter and are adding more walk-in closets. Do not forget user-friendly cabinet-corner solutions.

Technology and Home Renovations
This year more than a third of all home are expected to have at least one connected device. This is due mostly to voice-activation technology. One recent update allows you to issue voice commands, including asking when the dishwasher will be finished and have the oven preheat to a specific temperature. In addition, you can include more home sensors that can detect leaks along with other environmental conditions in the home. These sensors have recently become available and can be a part of your next home renovation. There is even a wireless home sensing solution that detects and alerts you to water leaks and other changes in temperature and humidity. A connected shutoff valve will soon be available. It will be able to turn the water off if a leak is detected and you are away from home.
If your home renovation includes the bathroom, you can have a toilet installed that cleans itself. The bowl is spritzed prior to each use in order to prevent waste from sticking. Then, along with each flush, electrolyzed water, which has a slightly acidic pH value, is sprayed in an effort to keep the bowl fresh and clean. You can also opt for an integrated UV light in the seat that that will accelerate the decomposition of inorganic substances in the bowl.
