Motif Homes latest design input in Southern Living will help you best support your overnight guests.
Helping guests feel comfortable during an overnight stay should be intentional and thought-out. We chimed in on two out of the seven suggestions from designers on how to host your guests well. Read on as we help you eliminate the guess work.
Traditional Clocks
“If most of your visitors will come equipped with a cell phone, you can consider forgoing illuminated alarm clocks in the guest room, says Tiffany Matthews, the founder of Motif Homes in Greensboro, North Carolina. After all, she says, these will take up outlet space that could be better used to charge guests' own electronics.”
Scented Accessories
“You may think that placing a fragrant candle or air freshener in the guest room is a thoughtful touch, but doing so may actually upset visitors who are prone to allergies or simply don't love scented items, Matthews says.”
We hope you enjoyed our expert recommendations on creating exceptional guest room experiences. At Motif Homes, we believe that small design details add up to create a big impact, transforming your space into a welcoming retreat.
