    As with everything else on screen, homes in movies often have something special about them. From the iconic Practical Magic house to pretty much any home in a Nancy Meyers movie, these are properties that most of us can only dream of recreating. You might even have taken your top interior inspo from something you saw at the movie theater. 

    Despite this, you may well find that even your best efforts don’t make your home sparkle like those iconic on-screen alternatives. Luckily, we’ve got some top tips to help make your home look like something from the movies at long last. 

    # 1 – Remember That it’s Often About Lighting

    If you’ve never been on a movie set, then you might not know this, but there are typically a fair few spotlights around the place. This is especially true for interior shots that are actually taken in a dark warehouse somewhere, and those spotlights have an inevitable impact on appearances. You could even say that they make the whole place shine. 

    Of course, you’re not about to improve the appearance of your interiors with a movie-style spotlight of your own, but that’s not to say you can’t still take inspiration from lighting. Focusing on layered lighting, and making sure you’re injecting plenty of natural light into your rooms can be especially effective for recreating that much-loved movie glow.

    # 2 – Spare a Thought for Your Exteriors

    Exteriors tend to be the only real thing about the houses depicted on-screen, and thanks to inventions like ultra HD, there’s no room for them to hide. Movie houses certainly don’t suffer from weed-filled gardens, visible roofing issues, or flaking exterior paint. And your home shouldn’t either. 

    While it’s easy to limit your design efforts inside, you should also focus on exterior priorities. This is especially true when it comes to sizable tasks like the roof replacements offered by A&J Professional Services which, if left unchecked, could quickly lead to internal issues that you’d never see on a movie set. Equally, exterior focuses like landscaping and general maintenance across your gutters, windows, etc., are all going to get you closer to the big-screen look you love. 

    # 3 – Props Aren’t Just For the Big Screen

    On-screen homes tend to be iconic because they’re crammed with personal effects that create a subtle profile for our characters. Admittedly, you don’t need as many home knick-knacks as most characters, but it stands to reason that some personal decor will surely breathe life into your home. 

    Ornaments or bookcases can be especially effective for adding that same zest to your space. Even if you prefer a minimalist look, options like a photo wall can match your sleek style while still adding a little something special. 

    Takeaway

    How many times have you seen a stunning house on screen and wondered how you could recreate it? Well, wonder no more thanks to these top tips for creating movie magic styling, right in the comfort of your own home.
