Strategic Placement: Where to put those electrical outlets for a home build or renovation

When it comes to interior design, it's all in the details. Sometimes, it's the little elements that can truly transform a space from ordinary to extraordinary. Just imagine having sleek, modern electrical outlets seamlessly integrated into your home in ways you never thought possible. When we were building our home we spent hours and hours deciding where to put the electrical outlets. Let me share some of those with you!


Baseboards: Where Style Meets Functionality


Embracing a modern look in your main rooms can be as simple as incorporating electrical outlets into your baseboards. This ingenious placement not only maintains the aesthetic appeal of your walls but also ensures convenience in powering your devices without the need for unsightly cords trailing across your living space.




An Elegant Kitchen Upgrade


Say goodbye to traditional backsplashes cluttered with outlets, and hello to a seamless kitchen design. By placing outlets under upper cabinets, you achieve a modern and uninterrupted aesthetic. This innovative approach not only enhances the visual appeal of your kitchen but also provides easy access to power sources for your appliances. I did a matching countertop quartz backsplash in my kitchen and I did NOT want anything interrupting her beauty.




Primary Bathroom Tranquility


Eliminate messy cords cluttering your bathroom counters by discreetly integrating outlets inside cabinets. This sophisticated solution ensures a clean and organized space while providing the necessary power supply for your grooming tools and devices.


A High-Tech Bathroom Essential


For those embracing the bidet trend in their homes, strategically placing an outlet by the toilet ensures a seamless and convenient setup. This modern touch guarantees an easy and efficient way to power your bidet for a luxurious bathroom experience.



Laundry Room Efficiency


Gone are the days of struggling with cords while ironing. Placing outlets on the laundry room countertop allows for easy access to power when using appliances like the ironing board, streamlining your laundry routine and enhancing overall efficiency.




Embracing the Holidays


As the festive season approaches, consider the practicality of having outlets on the floor for your Christmas tree. This innovative approach eliminates the need for unsightly extension cords and ensures a safe and tidy setup for your seasonal decorations.


Simplifying Storage Spaces


Keep your cleaning closet organized and clutter-free by incorporating outlets for your vacuum cleaner in a discreet location. This thoughtful placement ensures easy access to power while maintaining a neat and functional storage space.


Incorporating modern electrical outlet placement throughout your home is a game-changer in both design and functionality. These innovative solutions not only elevate the aesthetics of your living spaces but also enhance the efficiency and organization of your daily routines. By embracing creative outlet placements, you can achieve a harmonious balance of style and practicality in your home.


It's the little detail that makes a big difference!


Remember, a well-designed home is not just about what you see; it's also about the thoughtful details that are seamlessly integrated into your daily life....Or rather the messy cords you hide away.


BONUS TIP: don't forget about the outside of the house! We put them on both sides of front door, in roof of backyard covered patio and in the retaining wall in the back of the pool area.
