iPad Makeover ๐Ÿ“

May 06, 2024

As the subject says, it’s time to break down how to do quick makeovers in less than an hour on our iPads, and fall in love with the ease and joy of the process. We'll be using my own home office as an example of the transformation we'll create together.

Starting point: a small space with a black and white scheme, cluttered with books, magazines, and other items that need to be organized.

Goals: Transform the space into a Japandi-style aesthetic with lots of storage storage, providing a stylish background for videos and photos. We'll incorporate beige and pastel tones with accents of red, black, and brass.

I've already begun gathering design concepts from Pinterest, and artificial intelligence has been a significant help in this process as well.

Now, onto the most exciting part - sketching the space in our new design concept. I see two sketching options:

  1. Create a sketch based on a photo without having to draw it from scratch
  2. Create a bird’s-eye-view in a one-point perspective to see the entire room in one detailed drawing

Here are both of the techniques in action: my new kitchen and bedroom. Read about them HERE.




Since my current apartment is a rental, I'm still debating whether to start the final renovation process, considering I may move out someday... Have you ever invested in a complete renovation knowing you'll eventually move out? Your feedback would help me decide.

But I have to admit, that seeing all these sketches of a new space inspire me so much to finally do it and bring them to life even though I don’t own this apartment.

Back to the office makeover. This is how I’m planning to proceed:

First, I'll create a bird's-eye-view to outline the general design, colors, and furniture.

Then, based on this, I'll focus on the area behind my desk, creating a drawing based on a photo to refine the backdrop for my videos, as mentioned earlier. Expect a detailed YouTube video on this! Oh, and if you want to check out other iPad makeovers I’ve created, make sure to check out my YouTube channel here.

And, all the drawing resources for you to get started with digital design can be found HERE.

Hope you’re enjoying your day and speak soon!
