A Case Study on Strategic Staging in Melbourne
Let’s discuss in detail how we staged a home to increase its appearance potential to make it stand out in the sale market.
Goal
Our mission was clear, transform the house into a welcoming, attractive space with our property styling strategy. We aimed to showcase the home’s best aspects, optimize the layout, and captivate potential buyers.
The Plan
Our initial visit revealed the home’s hidden gems—ample natural light, a generous layout, and sturdy architecture. Yet, its charm was buried under personal items and dated furnishings. We crafted a home staging strategy focusing on the following:
- Removing clutter and personal touches.
- Selecting contemporary furnishings that accentuated the home’s character.
- Arranging furniture to highlight the space’s functionality.
- Adding decorative elements to infuse warmth and personality.
Execution
In one week, our team transformed the house. We started by decluttering. Then, we introduced a selection of modern furniture and decor. The living room received a stylish sofa and coffee table, complemented by warm lighting and plants.
Bedrooms were dressed in neutral tones with colourful accents, creating serene retreats. The dining area showcased its entertainment potential with a modern set-up. Our attention to detail ensured that every room illustrated the house’s potential.
