1. Squaring off
   a curved archway
   will make your
   living space look
   more open and
   modern. Bonus:
   it’s an achievable
   DIY project.

F

eature arches between rooms were at peak

popularity in homes built in the ’70s and ’80s,

but for some of us, it turns out notallthings

retro are destined to be trendy again! Remove your

curved archway with this modernising transformation

that isn’t too difficult to pull off. Follow these simple

steps and you’ll have your house back to square one

– and in line with your style – in no time.

Transforming the

arch makes the

room feel bigger!
