Here for the New Year: Refresh, Reinvigorate, and Rejuvenate at Home

living room with elevated views

The new year is the perfect excuse to refresh your surroundings. If you’re aiming for a stylish, cozy upgrade, AER Tampa offers the ultimate backdrop for elevated living. Whether you’re setting resolutions or simply craving a change, small details can make your apartment feel brand-new.

Curating a Refreshing Atmosphere

Create an inviting vibe by updating your living space with chic accents. Swap out everyday throw pillows for velvet or boucle in muted or jewel tones. Layer on a luxurious knit throw for extra comfort. Lighting is key—consider adding a sculptural table lamp or modern floor lamp to brighten things up.

A few plants can also work wonders. Opt for greenery in sleek planters or a vase of pampas grass for a neutral, textured look. Decorative trays are both stylish and functional. Use them to display candles, books, and small ceramic pieces that add charm.

New Year’s Home Goals

Set home goals that align with your daily routines. If you love quiet mornings, create a cozy corner with a soft chair, throw blanket, and a side table for your coffee. For hosting friends, refresh your dining area with linen placemats, matte dinnerware, and elegant glassware.

Spruce up your entryway with a statement mirror and a chic storage basket to keep things tidy yet stylish. Create a self-care space by adding a plush rug, soft lighting, and calming decor for moments of rest.

Apartment living in the new year is all about creating comfort and joy. AER Tampa offers an inspiring canvas for you to design your dream home. Let your space reflect your goals and set the tone for an incredible year ahead.

Top 3 Tips for Hosting

1. Seasonal Touches: Add cozy vibes with a few seasonal accents. Think earthy-toned throw blankets, plush pillows, and small decorative touches like mini pumpkins or candles. The dramatic floor-to-ceiling windows and private balconies create a beautiful backdrop that brings the fall season indoors.

2. Warm Ambiance with Lighting: Play with lighting to create a cozy atmosphere. Dim the contemporary light fixtures and add candles or lamps to add a warm glow. AER Tampa’s stunning interiors—like the soft-close custom cabinetry and luxury wood-like plank flooring—make it easy to create a sophisticated yet relaxed vibe for guests.

3. Beverage Station on Display: Set up a stylish drink station on the kitchen island or quartz countertops. Offer holiday-themed beverages like spiced cider or mulled wine, along with garnishes like cinnamon sticks and citrus slices. If you have the wine cooler, stock it up for easy access and a touch of elegance.

With these simple tips, your Thanksgiving at AER Tampa will be an unforgettable gathering in a beautiful, welcoming space that perfectly complements the holiday spirit. Enjoy the season and make the most of your luxury apartment!
