It's all about making your home the best it can be using existing furnishings, artwork and accessories. It's an especially helpful exercise if you are blending families, trying to mix hers with his, if you've recently downsized, or are just tired of your room's current look. Best of all, perhaps, is that the work is often done in just one day.

Not sure if redesign is right for you? Ask yourself these questions:

• Do you like your room, but find that the current arrangement leaves you cold?
• Do you think your space is too small, but can't bear to part with anything?
• Do you constantly flip through decor magazines, hoping to get inspired?
• Do you buy new things, but find that they just don't seem to fit?
• Do you have trouble pulling it all together for a cohesive look?

To give your room a makeover, you need to keep in mind the six basic elements of good room design:

• Balance
• Colour
• Focal point
• Harmony
• Scale
• Texture

You also need an objective eye and some careful editing of accessories to make a difference. That's where a redesign professional can help. Whether you live in a traditional house, townhouse, bungalow or condominium, a redesign professional can help determine and open up the focal point of a room and offer tips about furniture placement, coordinating art, colour and accessories.

With a redesign, you don't need the newest furnishings or the latest designer-endorsed pieces to transform your space into a beautiful and functional reflection of who you really are.A redesigner will work with you to showcase the treasures that highlight your personal style.

Sandi Gerrard, of Feel at Home Interior Redesign, conducts a training course for Interior Redesign students and we are always looking for home owners interested in getting a great deal.  Homes in the Brampton area are preferred, but other areas (such as Caledon, Georgetown, Mississauga, Etobicoke) will be considered.  This is your chance to have 3 or 4 rooms in your home redesigned by students under Sandi's direct supervision.  In return, we ask that you provide the students with a testimonial for the work done and allow them to take before and after photos for use in their future marketing materials.
