With COVID-19, we have valued the importance of the spaces and distribution of our home much more. We were forced to stay months in our homes and see the needs It has been a year that has undoubtedly motivated the desire or the need to make a comprehensive reform. Unexpectedly, we were forced to stay at home for days, weeks, and months. For this reason, in this year 2022, it has become an imperative need to reform our homes to make them more welcoming, fun, peaceful, comfortable, comfortable, etc.
In these circumstances is where all the capacity and creativity of the art of interior design comes into play, to harmoniously reorganize the spaces available in our home, in order to make them more suitable to stay in them for long periods of time.
Spaces to work remotely?
A few years ago, remote work, virtual meetings and new labor relations were part of a work modality that was difficult to implement, until now due to realities driven by circumstances. Technology has been the main pillar of these changes and is the key factor for this transformation, which still has a long way to go.
For this reason, teleworking requires us to set up an area where we can concentrate, without distractions that interrupt our activity. To do this, we have to prepare a space away from the areas of greatest traffic in our home.
Although it is an area to work, we must bear in mind that we have to have an adequate decoration and organization that make it comfortable to spend a working day without disturbances. In this sense, it must be a ventilated and cool space, with adequate lighting. Taking into account that the majority of homes in Spain are flats, (Topping the ranking of countries in the European Union (EU), 66.5% of Spaniards live in flats), a space suitable for teleworking could be 2m×2m. A home office does not require a large financial outlay in furniture. The essentials are a table with the right size, an ergonomic chair in which you can work comfortably and some elements that guarantee that you can maintain order in your home office.
Some key tricks are the choice of a range of light, pastel colors and rely on decorative partitions to delimit and isolate the space, have furniture that allows you to take advantage of the space and an ergonomic chair. The trend for this year 2021 is to use wooden tables for warmth, and to feel comfortable working in these circumstances.
Outdoor spaces
If we have learned anything in 2021 (and especially in 2020) it is the need to have open spaces that allow us to feel freer. The current trend is to allow our homes a space clear of the sun and wind, spaces that are very necessary for mental health and leisure.
Some decoration tips for this type of space are ornamental plants that recreate the view.
Contemporary and classic style
This year 2021 brings us a trend that maintains the balance between the classic and the modern and with a lot of sustainable materials. You can check out some of our latest projects with both styles.
Designer radiators, light boxes and other elements that distort hidden spaces; fencing to dilute the horizontal of the windows and generate higher spaces, moldings on walls and ceilings, high quality natural materials, adequate furniture designed for every corner.
Kitchen
The trend is to make a change to an open kitchen to increase the feeling of spaciousness. The trend colors of this last year, on the other hand, have been white with wood.
This year’s 2022 kitchen is expected to follow a contemporary, functional and practical style without neglecting technology, present in smart devices that make tasks and communication easier. Remote control by voice or gestures of many devices and utensils makes tasks more comfortable in general.
