The competitive real estate scene requires creative thinking. Interior designer Edith Levy, who hails from the capital market and the real estate industry, knows this world closely. In her second career as an interior designer, she draws on the experience and knowledge gained over the years to leverage assets.

"I am approached by entrepreneurs who are considering buying property and are interested in giving me a professional opinion from my perspective as an interior designer. Questions like how to upgrade the property and how much it will raise its value in the market," she says. "Economically, this is a deal that can be very lucrative through smart planning and design. Of course, I am reviewing the property in all respects to estimate the cost of renovations, with the goal of upgrading the property at minimum cost."

Levy explains how the property can be transformed. "In old apartments where there is no separation between the living room and the kitchen and the corridor occupies space, you can break walls, cancel the corridor - thus increasing the public space or one of the rooms. If there is enough space, there is no preventing from creating another room in the house and turning a three-room apartment into four rooms , Or turn a dark space into a light-filled space. Another way to get more out of the existing space is by replacing a wall with a large showcase and updating the look through fine floor coverings at accessible cost. "

"Recently, I accompanied an entrepreneur who wanted to improve his property in Ramat Gan by demolishing the kitchen-living room wall. We also added a showcase that allowed the view from the outside to blend in with the interior, creating a spacious, bright and expansive space. Finally, we revamped the kitchen And the sanitary ware and we got a functional space with a new look. "

Another important motif that Levy refers to when improving properties is the stylistic line. "Since the developer does not know who the future purchasers of the property will be and what their tastes will be, I choose a temporary design that will suit everyone. Not modern or rustic, but something neutral, clean that allows the design of the apartment to be taken in every direction."

The work process is summarized in three stages: "In the first stage we meet to meet expectations, desires, needs and ideas. In the second stage, I formulate the work plan according to the client's needs and budgetary capabilities. Finally, I manage the project in practice - the choice of materials and factors involved, Supervision of the work and implementation of the vision. "
