Summer Renovation: How to Prepare Your Home to Live Better (and More Stylishly)

Summer renovations are becoming increasingly common

Summer doesn’t just transform cities — it transforms our homes too. Light enters differently, spaces breathe more, and what once felt merely functional now asks for something else: calm, freshness, beauty.

At BAMMA, we see it in every summer renovation: well-thought-out projects don’t just solve — they support and enhance the way you live. That’s why, if you’re thinking of updating your home, summer is the perfect time to imagine a new rhythm. Softer. More yours.

The power of a light summer renovation (that changes everything)

You don’t need to tear down walls to make your home feel different. Sometimes it’s enough to rethink a layout, open up a passage, replace the flooring, or work with lighting to create real transformation.

In our projects, the key lies in identifying what truly matters: How do you use your home in summer? Which rooms remain unused? Where does life actually happen?

Small, well-placed decisions can make a big difference. And if you make them now, you’ll welcome autumn in a home that feels completely renewed.

Materials that work (and age beautifully)

Heat and sunlight demand materials that perform. That’s why at BAMMA, we lean into natural woods, washed linen, matte stone, and cool-to-the-touch surfaces — materials that are not only visually appealing but also built to last. Nothing fleeting. Everything intentional.

One example: the natural oak herringbone flooring we use in many of our renovations. It works just as well in winter with cozy rugs as it does in summer with bare feet.

Natural light, carefully managed

There’s no summer without light. But not all light is the same. In our renovations, we pay special attention to how natural light enters and how it’s filtered. One solution we often turn to? Invisible awnings, technical blinds, or metal latticework that softens the light without blocking it.

And when night falls, indirect lighting takes over: LED strips hidden in moldings, warm points of light that don’t overwhelm, and sculptural lamps that create atmosphere without overpowering the space.

Open kitchens that invite you to stay

In summer, the kitchen stops being a purely functional zone and becomes a natural gathering spot. That’s why at BAMMA, we design open kitchens — visually connected to the living room but clearly defined — using iron and glass partitions, lightweight and durable countertops, and layouts that feel effortless.

The key is creating a space that works just as well for a quiet morning coffee as it does for a casual dinner with friends.

Light textures, soft palettes

Forget the extremes — not all white, not all color. In summer, neutral palettes with subtle accents take the lead: sand tones, soft greens, beige, and stone grey. In textiles, the perfect mix: linen, cotton, and just a touch of contrast through dark woods or metallic details.

It’s the balance we return to again and again in our summer projects — especially in full-home renovations in Madrid, where the heat rises but style is never compromised.

A terrace, no matter how small

Do you have a balcony, gallery, or terrace? Then you have a luxury. We treat it as a seamless extension of the interior: same flooring, built-in bench seating, integrated planters, and natural-toned textiles.

The connection between indoor and outdoor spaces is one of the most powerful design decisions you can make this summer.

And if you don’t have a terrace? You’d be surprised what a thoughtfully dressed window or a restored bay can do.
