REIMAGINE
YOUR HOME International research has shown, pre-COVID-19, that consumers are spending more money on their home than fashion. Our prediction is that this trend will increase, in months and years to come. Social distancing and lockdown has afforded us the time to rethink and reimagine our homes. We have counted our blessings and noticed the short comings.
We’ve also realised that our relationship with our homes have changed forever. Homes are no longer a place where you go when you have nothing to do, it has now become a dynamic social space where stuff happens. While we wait for equilibrium to return, we will work, live and entertain from home.
Accept What you Can’t and Do What you Can Not all projects are equal,
some take budget and planning while others imagination and elbow grease. So draw up your to-do lists and set some long, medium and short term goals.
Tips to Get you Started: Declutter and Clean Use the three boxes system; box 1= keep, box 2= donate, box 3 = throw it away.
