INTERIOR DESIGN TRENDS FOR 2022 After the last eighteen months, many people are now seriously considering updating their homes - creating new spaces, changing color schemes, furniture and even artwork. It’s become clear that home décor has an impact on emotions and well-being. An emphasis on natural light, good ventilation, and biophilic (connection with nature) design have gained in popularity. This is accomplished with the use of indoor plants, skylights, and open indoor-outdoor floorplans. Another noted concern is on climate change; many are now considering sustainability and which materials are best to use for the health of our planet. Homeowners want spaces that reflect their personalities, interests, hobbies, and history. Outdoor spaces are being treated as integral parts of the home, creating additional rooms to expand a family’s living and entertainment spaces. Stylish furniture is being chosen to be compatible with the indoor space. (. . .continued on page 6)

Vintage and antique furniture are also making a comeback due to the widespread interest in sustainability. Lamps are important, not just for lighting, but also as art or a statement piece. The styles of the 70’s have made a resurgence, but with a twist. More muted and earthy tones have replaced bright orange, along with rounded furniture and multiple patterned fabrics.

CHOOSING COLORS IS AN IMPORTANT ELEMENT FOR THE DESIGN OF ANY HOME. This year Pantone has named “Very Peri” its color of the year. “Very Peri” is a bold blue with violet-red undertones, often called periwinkle. Periwinkle represents serenity and calmness as well as vibrancy and excitement. According to Pantone, “Veri Peri” helps us embrace this

altered landscape of possibilities, opening us up to a new vision as we re-write our lives: rekindling gratitude for some of the qualities that blue represents complemented by a new perspective that resonates today, Very Peri places the future ahead in a new light. These are transformative times

(. . .continued on page 8) 6

and “Very Peri is a symbol of the global zeitgeist of the moment and the transition we are going through.” Expect to see Very Peri in many different shades and uses. It can be used as an accent color for pillows, glassware, accent chairs, area rugs or art. Or one can try periwinkle patterned wallpaper to create excitement on walls, ceilings or even cabinets. Etsy has named Emerald Green their color of the year. It is a reminder of nature and works well on walls, bedding, pillows, and art. Other paint companies have chosen a more neutral color palette for the year 2022 in the belief that calm is needed after the uncertainty of the last two years. Either way, bright cheerful colors are sometimes exactly what we need.

THE CHOICE IS

yours!

The first thing to understand is that writing a will and having an estate plan are actually two different processes, even though an estate plan will include a will.

Wills Creating a will can be a fairly simple process. It will address who will take care of your children, who will take over your business, and who receives your assets and other personal property. A will requires the naming of an executor responsible for fulfilling the deceased’s wishes. Having one’s wishes defined in a will ensures privacy, helps avoid family disputes and saves money by avoiding probate and the expense of attorneys and public trustees to determine the distribution of assets which then becomes public information.

Estate Planning Estate planning is the process of designating who will manage and distribute assets after death or incapacitation. It is a more intensive process and includes a variety of documents including the last will and testament. While it may be overwhelming to contemplate, a welldesigned estate plan will ensure that assets are distributed according to one’s wishes. In addition to the last will and testament, an estate plan (. . .continued on page 12) 10

PALM BE ACH COUNT Y | FLORIDA | VOL . 4

might include a living will, a financial power of attorney, a living trust, and beneficiary designations. An estate plan can be particularly helpful in the case of multiple marriages, business ownership, specific charitable donations, or specific requests for health or property. It can also ensure wishes are carried out and that assets are distributed as designated.

Living Will A living will is a document that describes the type of care one would want if incapacitated and cannot speak for themself. This can assist the family with difficult decisions and avoid confusion. A financial power of attorney allows for a designated appointee to handle financial affairs in the event of incapacitation. They can make financial decisions in accordance with the instructions defined in the estate plan.

Living Trust A living trust is a document created during one’s life where a designated person, the trustee, is given responsibility for managing that individual’s assets for the benefit of the eventual beneficiary. It is designed to allow for the easy transfer of assets, thereby avoiding probate. A living revocable trust allows someone to be their own trustee and allows for changes in beneficiary at any time.

PALM BE ACH COUNT Y | FLORIDA | VOL . 4

An irrevocable living trust is restrictive, and beneficiaries may not be changed but there are certain beneficial tax consequences. Beneficiary designations explain who receives which assets such as an IRA, insurance policy, savings account, or other financial instruments. A well-executed estate plan can minimize gift, estate and generation skipping transfer taxes to ensure that the family receives as much of the deceased’s estate as possible. Everyone’s plan is different and requires the right team of professionals to implement. It is also important to update the plan regularly as personal circumstances, legislation, and tax laws change frequently. This article is for informational purposes only. Please consult a professional.

It is time to start thinking about traveling again. Why not go somewhere historic and fun. Learn about Incan civilization at Machu Picchu in Peru or Mayan civilization in Mexico.

Machu Picchu, or the lost city as it is often referred to, is a bucketlist type of destination. As a world heritage site and one of the new Seven Wonders of the world, it is often considered to be the most spectacular urban creation of the Incan civilization. It was built as a sacred site around 1430 by the 9th Incan king without
