Running out of time before your guests arrive? At MOTIV Interiors, we use our decade of experience in hospitality to help our clients create beautiful and comfortable spaces perfect for hosting!
Tip 1: Create a Safe and Welcoming Entryway
To welcome your guests to your home, make sure to create a safe and well lit entryway. This creates an inviting feeling for your newly arrived guests!
Tip 2: Provide Storage Solutions for Guests
Providing storage solutions for your guests’ luggage keeps your spaces decluttered and accessible. Consider providing your guests with a place to hang their clothing.
Tip 3: Make Your Space Special and Memorable
At MOTIV Interiors, we love sourcing pieces from local artists and tradespeople to infuse your space with the culture of your favorite city — Nashville!
In this recent investment property design, we used art prints from local contemporary art gallery Chauvet Arts.
Tip 4: Create Places for Guests to Congregate
Hosting guests is all about togetherness and making memories. Create designated spaces for guests to gather and relax. Make sure to include greenery to enliven the space and special touches, like this custom neon sign, to show your personal style.
Tip 5: Enjoy yourself!
Hosting should be about being together with your loved ones. Take the time to relax and create memories that you’ll be talking about for years to come. Prepare a few snacks ahead of time that you can easily pull out of the fridge — this will allow you to be present while hosting.
If you're ready to create a sanctuary where you can host your loved ones and make memories, but you're not sure where to start, we'd love to hear from you!
