Choosing A Paint Color First                  

Paint colors are a huge part of the design of a room, that’s why you don’t want to choose them first. Once you’ve settled on some furniture and rug options, you can then explore which colors fit with the fabrics you have chosen 

Buying Furniture Without Measuring            

This tip may seem straightforward, but is an important step nonetheless! A showroom floor can look a lot different in size than your living room, for example. What may look really good all put together in the store may not fit in the space you have for it. 

Shopping At Just One Store     

You probably have your favorite home goods store, or maybe it is Home Goods… But you can really find some great pieces that go together at multiple stores. Plus each has their own personality and design choices. All good things when pulling together a winning design! 

Buying the Whole Set         

A controversial topic to some, buying a whole set can really hinder your design and offer a bland step and repeat structure. Instead, look for one major piece and then build around it. Not matching everything perfectly adds a flavor and personality to your space. 

Not Making A Bold Choice                       

Bold design choices can seem difficult to make and like a risk. But you don’t get to reap the reward if you don’t take the risk! Taking a calculated risk every now and then can brighten your space and you can still tie it together with some muted pieces later. This can help you avoid 5 major design mistakes in your living room.

Nathan Svoboda President

I was born and raised in Lincoln, Nebraska. I grew up around construction, remodeling, maintenance and all of that, my dad was one of those fix anything types and so we never called someone to come work on the house. I also was able to tag along with my dad when he had a job of his own to complete that had to do with construction or remodel or repair. Throughout high school and college I worked in the trades doing everything from carpentry to concrete in both residential and commercial applications. I also ran my own cabinet shop while in high school and college and knew that I wanted to work for myself and go out on my own in business, I graduated with a Bachelors of science in business administration and small busienss management in 2014. I met my wife Danielle while working maintenance for our churches summer camp, Danielle and her family were all from Wichita Kansas. After graduation I married Danielle and we moved to Wichita Kansas to start our own journey. I started Wichita Home works in 2015 with just one main floor kitchen remodel and one guy doing the work, it went very well and the rest is history. We built some key relationships along the way while learning and building wichita home works, we spun off quite a few businesses and divisions such as Integrity trade services, and complete concrete solutions, mainly out of necessity. We found it increasingly difficult to find trades that would live up to our high expectations and therefore we decided to do it ourself.
