n answer to entering a realm of 'Neutral culture' (LSN Global) is trend Self-Singleness. Celebrating a time when we can create and define our own identity, with no distinction between race and gender. Stripping everything back to a rudimentary state and building up your mind, character and self. After consistently being overstimulated in all elements of the outside world, this trend envisions your home as sanctuary of escapism. We have been subconsciously seeking distraction from the digital and experiential experiences of our everyday lives.
Often finding ourselves mentally drained by our strenuous urban lifestyles. Our time and energy is consumed more than ever before. We look for shelter, somewhere to be at peace with the world, away from the culture that overstimulates our minds. Honouring a crusade of oneness and a non-conformist attitude. Self-singleness supports the courageous, who step back from societal life, in order to make a poised bold stride forward for themselves. Relief from reality is an elementary way of living, often recognised as a fantasy encompassing social status sacrifices, that people are disinclined to make.
Echoed in the home, this is built using honest natural forms and textures: raw wood, marbled stone and herb shrubs. Retreating to basics, sees primitive colours highlighted amongst masses of bare neutral textures. Accents of Cobalt Blue, Cherry Red and Canary Yellow take centre stage against a plethora of whites, transforming a take on vanilla minimalism, into a tasteful balance of colour. Stripped back from all the clutter uncovering a calming haven to allow our senses to heighten. In turn, forming a serenity to nurture the most efficient, and optimised version of ourselves. A break from reality creating equanimity that will continue to evolve with time.
