Bring Comfort and Calm into Your Home
In today’s fast-paced world, everyone is searching for a little comfort. Quiet spaces offer environments to unwind, recharge, or connect with family and friends. As a contractor, helping your clients bring these cozy corners and functional retreats to life isn’t just rewarding, it’s smart business. These mini “oases” are in high demand, and with the right materials and design vision, they can transform any home.
At Riverhead Building Supply, we provide the products and materials you need to build beautiful, durable, and inviting spaces. Whether you’re working on a remodel, new build, or seeking fresh ideas, here are 5 cozy concepts to inspire your next project.
1. Bright Reading Nooks with Big Views
There’s nothing cozier than a tucked-away reading nook, especially one flooded with natural light. Framed with Marvin or Andersen windows, these small spaces become emotional focal points of a home.
Tip! For new builds, take it to the next level with a Marvin Skycove, which adds glass on all sides for a built-in enclave full of sunlight and serenity.
2. Spa-Inspired Bathrooms: The New Luxury
Homeowners are craving at-home luxury, and a spa-inspired bathroom delivers. Think oversized showers with natural stone or porcelain tile, soaking tubs, and calming color palettes. Architectural hardware, premium cabinetry, and high-end finishes turn a simple bath into a daily retreat.
Materials to Consider:
Cabinetry and vanities with ample storage
Architectural hardware for a luxury finish
- Heated flooring and towel warmers for added comfort
3. Cozy Breakfast Bars and Built-In Banquettes
Kitchens are the heart of a home, and breakfast bars or banquettes offer informal dining and gathering zones for family and friends. Our design team can use smart cabinetry design and creative layouts to carve breakfast nooks into any sized kitchen. Riverhead Building Supply offers cabinetry systems built to fit your plan, as well as trim and moulding for custom bench seating.
4. Backyard Retreats: Decks, Patios & Outdoor Rooms
A deck or patio isn’t just an exterior feature, it’s a lifestyle space. With materials like Deckorators and TimberTech decking, you can create outdoor rooms that are as comfortable and stylish as the indoors. Additionally, Riverhead Building Supply offers a complete selection of masonry supplies for patios, fireplaces, and outdoor kitchens. Add built-in benches, planters, privacy walls, and lighting to complete the feel.
5. Drop Zones: The Everyday Space that Leads to Calm in the Home
It’s more than a pass-through. A well-designed drop zone near your entry helps bring calm and organization to the daily routine. Once called a mudroom, today’s drop zone is a more intentional space with dedicated spots for everything that comes through the door, from shoes and coats to backpacks and keys.
Create a drop zone that wows with:
Smart storage cabinetry for everyday items like shoes, coats, and bags
Moulding and trim give the space a clean, finished look
Easy-to-care-for flooring that holds up to daily wear and tear
Tip: Keep your mouldings and trim consistent with the rest of your home for a polished look. Explore options in our moulding gallery.
