2. A Library Project with Purpose
Recently, I worked with a client on an inspiring project: building a library for children who lack a quiet place to study. This project was truly rewarding, as it provides a dedicated, comfortable space for kids who want to focus and learn without distractions. If you’re thinking of setting up a reading nook or library space at home, choose colors like deep green or rich navy blue to create a calm, focused atmosphere.
3. Addressing Wall Seepage with Waterproofing
At the library site, we noticed moisture issues from a pipe in the basement, causing seepage in the walls. Here’s a practical tip: if you have similar issues, apply two coats of Elephant Shield waterproofing solution. Here’s the process:
- Step 1: Remove any existing paint from the affected area.
- Step 2: Apply the first coat of Elephant Shield vertically.
- Step 3: Apply a second coat horizontally.
This application creates a strong waterproof barrier, preventing further seepage and protecting the wall from damage.
4. DIY Waterproofing for Your Walls
If you want to make your home more resilient to moisture, this DIY waterproofing technique is highly effective. Follow the above steps, and remember to apply it directly over the plaster after removing old paint. This technique works especially well in basements or areas prone to dampness.
Using trending colors and effective waterproofing, you can elevate your home’s style and functionality, making it both beautiful and durable for years to come.
