8 Easy, Clever, and Cozy Sunroom Design Ideas

8 Easy, Clever, and Cozy Sunroom Design Ideas
Sunday, December 1st, 2013 by Danny Peterson

Sunrooms are fantastic additions to any home. You can sneak away to enjoy the early morning sunrise, or escape from the chaos of the day. In the winter months, sunrooms add warmth to your home by letting the sunshine in from its many windows. In the summer, they are the perfect escape from the hot and muggy weather. To make this room your perfect retreat, take the time to spruce it up. A well-decorated sunroom isn’t just more appealing. It will feel cozier, more comfortable, and will add extra value for anyone who spends time in it. Here are a few sunroom decorating ideas that can instantly add appeal to your favorite getaway spot.

#1 Pick the Right Furniture
When searching for sunroom furniture, choose pieces that are both comfortable and functional. Cozy seating and dining will make the room a place where the whole family will want to be. In many cases, a sunroom is open to the rest of the house, so don’t put lawn furniture in it. Opt for pieces that mesh well with the rest of the house, and consider the sunroom a proper, functional room.

#2 Add Bright Flowers
By adding color and freshness to your sunroom, you’ll instantly warm it up and make it feel homier. Flowers are a great way to make any room look more finished and more welcoming. Consider African Violets, Begonias, or Daisies. These will brighten up any sunroom on a cloudy day.

#3 Choose Sheer Curtains
When considering sunroom design ideas, curtains are an essential element. Sheer curtains act as both decoration and insulation during extreme months. In the summer, the sheer fabric will diffuse hot sunlight to help regulate temperature.

#4 Install Ceiling Fans
Ceiling fans in the center of the room will help to circulate air and keep it cool. By constantly moving air around, you won’t ever feel stifled or overheated. Even in the winter months, it will circulate the heat and keep your sunroom at a comfortable, cozy temperature.

#5 Use Rugs and Mats
You’ve already added some visual comfort by using flowers and curtains. Now it’s time to add comfort to the floor, and to your feet. If a sunroom’s floor is hardwood, put one large rug or a few smaller throw rugs around the room. This helps to detail seating areas and doorways, and also makes the room feel much more “finished.”

#6 Choose Light, Breezy Colors
The right color scheme can take a nice sunroom and turn it into an extraordinary escape. Many people enjoy sleek, modern colors. However, in a sunroom, it is often better to choose light, airy colors. Opt for bright hues, like yellows and light greens, or soft shades of blue.

#7 Decorate for the Season
One of the greatest parts of having a sunroom is being able to acknowledge the seasons without having to go outdoors. Every few months, the sunlight and warmth of the room will shift. Sunroom design ideas are not set in stone. While repainting four times each year is not feasible, adding and subtracting decorative elements is. Incorporate décor associated with each season, and let the sunroom reflect what is happening on the other side of the windows.

#8 Opt for Minimalism
A sunroom is an escape from everyday stress. Don’t add clutter—and stress—to the sunroom by over decorating. Rather, take a minimalistic approach that will make the room more open and airy. Avoid using any furniture or decorations that are not necessary, especially if your sunroom is relatively small. Of course, in the end, all sunroom design ideas should reflect you. Always decorate your getaway in a way that makes you feel comfortable, relaxed, and in love with your escape. For more advice on making the most of your room, consult a professional, like the experts at Integrity Home Pro. They are happy to offer for tips, tricks, and other great services to homeowners in the Baltimore and DC area that can turn your sunroom into your favorite room in the house. Photo by: Tinkeringbell

Recently we hired Integrity Pro to design and complete a combination bathroom and Laundry room in our basement.We knew for quite sometime this would be a big time consuming job. We actually interview at least 6 other construction companies. We found out that a lot of plumbers were not interested in the construction aspects of this type of work. We found out that anyone offering to do this for 7-8 thousand dollars was not trustworthy.More than once we were ready to pull the trigger only to walk back from the ledge for different reasons.The first thing that stood out on the Integrity estimate was that big fat liability policy that was part of the estimate proposal. As a retired Casualty Insurance Professional this was definitely a determining factor. The other was the fixture allowance.But it did take 2-3 conversations to lead to the big hand shake.Then the next “feel good” factor was Alberto the lead carpenter. He came in on a Saturday after the plumber because he needed to get a jump on things. He worked every Saturday until finished.We saw Mike the Project Manager like 4 times. Very reassuring.The door to the laundry room needed some creative thinking. Once again great results.For us this was a once in a life time project, we had much to loose if done incorrectly, but much to gain when done right. That is where we are, on the plus side. Well done.Anthony Bynum

This company is very responsive. Not only did Danny (owner) listen to our concerns, but he heard our concerns. Many days, I was leaving as the workers arrived. Danny would leave post it notes to ensure the contractors addressed any concerns from the day before. The contractors are very respectful of our home. They cleaned up every afternoon so as not to leave our house in disarray.My fireplace turned out beautifully. My bathroom doors were moved and the new locking barn darns turned out beautifully. Danny is having a custom threshold designed to make the transition between too rooms seamless. Danny took a load barring wall down to open up the kitchen and the back room. Danny ensured the openings to these rooms were at least 36 inches. Ensuring the house is ADA accessible was very important to me.

Our project coordinator on site was Alberto. He was so fastidious, and was so committed to making the job look fantastic at the end. He even came back after he realized he forgot to put some thing on our final cabinet installation even thought he was in his truck, on his way out. He was just so excellent and we can’t have asked for a better project result.

I’m so happy to have found Integrity Home Pro! After working with multiple contractors on various house projects, Integrity Home Pro has been a breath of fresh air. They’re professional, courteous, knowledgeable, reliable, show up when they say they’re going to, and are quick to respond to phone calls and emails. Not only that, their work is excellent. We hired them to renovate a bathroom and were so impressed we hired them to renovate our sunroom and kitchen and make various improvements around the outside of our home. I cannot recommend them highly enough and will work with them again for any future home improvements.

My wife and I reached out to Integrity Home Pro for a quote to repair/replace wood under our bay windows that started rotting years ago. Within a few days, we had an estimate with several different options, and reasonable price set for the work done, as well as an estimate for how long the work would take.Within 3 weeks, Integrity Home Pro sent out their team to replace our rotted wood with panels and had finished the work within the time originally estimated. We're so happy with the work they've done, that we will certainly be reaching out again for more work on our home.Long and short: Integrity Home Pro has shown us professional courtesy, impressive workmanship, and genuine care for our needs. The quality of service is a rarity, and we plan on reaching out to Integrity again in the near future.Photos provided to show the before and after

Integrity Home Pro was a pleasure to work with. I had extensive hail damage to my house and the process of getting information to my insurance and approval for a full replacement was a long process. Ben at Integrity was very patient and extremely helpful every step of the way. He assisted with everything the insurance needed so that now I have a new roof and siding. The installers were outstanding and when they were finished you could not see any debris on the lawn or damage to any bushes. I used Integrity about 10 years ago for the previous roof that the hail damaged ( I thought they were terrific then) and I think they only have improved with time. I highly recommend them!

Integrity Home Pro did an excellent job at remodeling our bathroom. They are very skilled, professional, and they work together to get the job done in a timely fashion. They were very patient, attentive, and courteous, and always kept us abreast every step of the way. Our newly remodeled bathroom exceeds our expectations and is simply beautiful. We could not have asked for a more dedicated and devoted team.

Integrity Home Pro were very pleasant and easy to work with when our roof was damaged by a tree branch. They replaced my roof quickly in the morning. Also, I am a returning customer knowing they did a great job replacing my roof 20 years ago.

Integrity Home-Pro just completed remolding our kitchen. The process took two weeks. Elmer Lopez did the work. He worked non-stop everyday; his workmanship is premium. Tera Ingwersen guided us through the process from the office on a regular basis and was always available to answer questions. Integrity's quote for the work was significantly less than a quote given by another company. Integrity's owner, Danny Peterson, personally came when we called about getting a quote. He followed up on two occasions as the work was being done. Integrity Home Pro has done other major projects on our home and we have been pleased each time.
