Like everything else this year, the design world changed fast, and we all raced to adapt. From the massive uptake in virtual consultations to people happily ordering furniture with long lead times without blinking an eye (we certainly had the time to wait), the interior design landscape became a much-altered state. Here’s how you can tap into some of the changes...
T
he world we live in now is a vastly different place
to what it was a mere six months ago. We are cautious about what we do and whom we see, but we are also a bit more focused on what really matters. A healthy home life and good work/life balance seem to top the list for most of us. During that extended period indoors, you probably started to notice in more detail the things that bug you the most: wine glasses that weren’t quite full enough, nagging kids and, you guessed it, the way your home looks and performs. Many of us picked up on annoyances relating to our living rooms, kitchens and bedrooms, from dodgy floor plans to bad lighting to the kids still living at home. It’s high time we addressed those issues and changed things for the better, ’cause this braver new world has some exciting and previously unimagined opportunities.
