Rental homes are like temporary safe-havens. When it comes to interior design, decorating rental properties is way different from adorning your own home. The key is to create a perfect balance between beauty and value.
When renovating your home interiors, you can be as creative and as personal as you can be. Whereas in decorating a rental space, you have to create a livable space that will suit everyone or anyone. A modern interior house design in the Philippines can help make an attractive yet functional and cost-effective rental home that tenants will surely love.
A modern interior design is known for its sleek and uncluttered space with clean lines. Modern design began in the late 19th century and is still recognized and used up to this day. Remaining in interior design trends, modernism reflects simplicity with furnishing and décor that focus on neutral material and use of earthy colors. In its simplicity, the modern design embraces natural light and unadorned windows, void of fussy adornments.
Before filling anything in, it’s better to paint the walls first to have a fresh foundation. Choosing the right color is important. Although different people have different preferences, it would be best to consider neutral hues like white, beige, and ivory. Dark colors like bold violet and orange may not look appealing to tenants. Make sure to invest in quality paints and opt for a silk finish instead of a matte finish to avoid getting your walls easily stained or faded.
Good quality flooring makes the entire home sturdy and firm. In modern design, marble and tiles are popular choices due to their elegance and versatility. While an expensive choice, a marble floor is a long-term investment that will serve you for many years. Opting for tiles are less expensive but, you may need to redo them more often. The good thing about tiles is, it gives the space a fresher look whenever you change them.
One way to set the right mood and adjust the ambiance in your rental home is through lighting. A skilled interior designer knows the importance of lighting in modern spaces. You may use recessed ceiling lights for general lighting, but some may opt for overhead ceiling fixtures. Make sure that every room has an adequate amount of light and add decorative accent lighting when needed.
With home rental furniture, you may either get pricey or inexpensive furniture. However, it may be a good idea to choose affordable furniture pieces and have them changed as necessary. Besides, not all renters know the value of high-quality furniture. However, you may also invest in high-quality and comfortable sofas and beds to give your guests the best experience. Chairs and ottomans that feature bare legs and slim bases are advisable for modern styles.
Similar to minimalist interior design, modern spaces focus on decorative accessories that have functions or purposes. As a landlord, be prepared that these accessories may not be well cared for by all tenants. Be wise when placing decorative pieces on your rental property. Since they add in creating homey feels, you can go for the basic pieces such as paintings, floor lamps, among other things.
The kitchen is considered the heart of every home and most tenants seek a great kitchen space. Give attention to kitchen cabinets and countertops. Enhancing them with angular and simple design is a great idea. When it comes to color schemes, it’s safe to stay neutral and keep it bright at all costs. And, select kitchen flooring with care. These are especially true if you are to transform your condo into a rental space. Ensure that materials that are easy to clean.
A clean and tidy bathroom is significantly appealing to tenants. Renovating this area is also crucial, especially the toilet seat –or the entire bathroom if possible– to secure cleanliness. One of the services an interior designer can provide is a modern bathroom for both function and relaxation. Usually, modern bathrooms include bathtubs, a chair in the corner, showerheads, faucets, mirrors, and other sanitaryware.
Decorating can be challenging but fun. As a landlord, it’s normal that you want to give your guests the best experience they can have without overspending. Enhancing the aesthetic and function of your rental property through condo interior design increases its value and attracts high-quality tenants at the same time.

We love Rocky!!! He has the best designs and he gets what you want. His designs are so beautiful. It looks like what you will see in Architectural Digest but the house feels homey and warm. He took care of everything , from the foot print of the rooms, the wall finishes, the built ins, the furnitures , the lighting. He even took care of the styling. It's better than what you will ever watch on any design show. You walk into your house and your jaw would drop at the beauty of your house. His team even fixed all the furnitures and beddings and it's so move in ready that you just literally bring in your personal stuff. He and his staff were very responsive. They went over and beyond so many countless times. He was not only a designer but also a crisis manager. He helped us with our sub contractors. If we were to build another house , we would definitely work with him. We highly recommend him. Indeed one of the Philippines best sought after designer. After working with him , we know why 😍 Thanks so very much Rocky.
Rock and his team were fantastic and kept the design and renovation process stress and headache free. Impeccable translation of design from print to reality and amazing attention to detail. I highly, highly recommend Rock to anyone looking for end to end services from design all the way thru the actual renovation. Claps! :)
Having had a few projects with Rock Robins, I can absolutely testify that he is a highly-professional interior designer, who means what he says and does it. One particular project, we had the challenge of lockdowns and pandemic restrictions. Rock led the project, his team, and the suppliers so well beyond my expectations. Rock exudes professionalism with a heart. I felt that he cares for the project and for me, the client. He listens and accommodates the design of the project based on how it will be used and if it reflects the owners' lifestyle and taste. To say that it is a joy to work with Rock is an understatement. I look forward to the time I can work with Rock again.
We hired Rock Robins and his team for interior design and renovation of our condo unit. The designs were excellent, they listened to and incorporated all our ideas and also made design suggestions along the way. If you want a stress free renovation process then this is the way to go, everything was made very easy! When the renovation was finished it looked almost identical to the final designs
I would highly recommend Rock and his team to anyone wanting interior design services all the way through to renovation, they are a pleasure to work with and the final results are excellent! :)
Rocky did such an excellent job on our condo that it was even featured in a popular magazine! The space he created for us is beautiful, tasteful and inviting. We were so happy with his work that he is doing another project for us! We highly recommend Rocky Robins Studio.
All the characteristics you wish for in a great design team are with Rock Robins design studio. I had the most incredible experience working with Rocky and his team on multiple projects for several years. The team is very professional, attentive to client interests, works within client budgets and is deeply committed to completing projects on time. Definitely would recommend them to anyone seeking a top notch design firm that could make their dream home come true.
Rocky picked up my project which had been abandoned by the previous designer during coronavirus leaving me in a precarious position. Designers generally don’t like to take over mid-project as there are added complications but Rocky made the effort to completely understand both the issues and what I wanted from the design and elevated it to something beyond my expectations.
Working with Rock was an absolute joy as his cheery personality brought more excitement and creativity in revamping our daughter's room. We love the playful color scheme and the clever storage solutions.
