Interior design has never been more essential than it is now. We are spending more time at home than ever before, so the comfort and quality of the pieces we choose for our spaces must correspond with the practicality of our lives. Now that much of our day is spent in the home, design decisions must include much more consideration than just the look of apiece. Now the emphasis on functionality, quality, and craftsmanship is key.

Quality Craftsmanship

With more time being spent in the home, we are all looking for those perfect elements which match the look and feel of our home, but now there is a heightened focus to obtain those pieces which will also withstand more daily living. When looking through the selection of décor available, one must keep a keen eye on the criteria of quality and  craftsmanship  that will  keep  the selections  functional  and beautiful for years to come. Instead of looking just at a piece as something to please the eye, more and more of us are selecting items which will endure the test of time - pieces which we can pass down to others.

Modern but Cozy

While decorating, it is entirely possible to keep a balance between both the efforts to have a luxurious, contemporary, and sophisticated home... while also having a cozy space which welcomes not only your guests but welcomes you into the space as well. Continue to choose items with a modern edge to them but look for touches that add a warmer and cozier feel. Make sure that you are keeping up with clean lines while including elements of warm, soothing tones.

Lifestyle Living

Whether you are decorating an existing space or envisioning your new build, you can now match your living spaces to your lifestyle. There is no need for a gym membership if you build a personal gym into your home. No need for a community pool because you can build your backyard into a luxurious retreat. No need for movie theatres when you can build one just down the hallway in your home! With the home increasingly becoming the centerpiece of our lives, the designs we implement should correspond with the needs that we have in all areas of life. What you can dream of to incorporate into your home can become a reality by making thoughtful, purposeful design choices. Your home can now have all the amenities to coordinate with your lifestyle.

Choices

As you embark upon incorporating the new essential trending styles for 2021 into your home living space, remember to always blend the newest look or item alongside your own personal wants and needs. Choose items with quality craftsmanship, a modern but cozy feel, and which can incorporate into your lifestyle seamlessly.  When looking for these items, feel free to reach out to us at Stephanie Kratz Interiors and we can find the perfect pieces to bring those essential styles into your home.
