5 Simple Design Trends

to Boost Your Work From Home Productivity Setting up your home office can be tricky. The most important thing is to find an area that can be your designated workspace. This will help you reduce stress and create a clear distinction between your work hours and free time. Try to do all your work in the office space and keep a separate sofa space for relaxation and leisure time. Where you place it, how you choose to design it, and what kind of furniture you use are important decisions that may impact your work productivity.

We listed five things to keep in mind that will help you design the best workspace for you and your needs.

1

Invite nature to your home office

By bringing plants, flowers, and greenery into your working space, you will make it more beautiful. Plants also help clean and humidify the air — something that comes in very handy when you’re spending all your days in front of the computer. If you opt for scented flowers and plants, you get the added benefit of some natural aromatherapy.

2 Source: Grovemade

Keep it simple and minimalistic

To maximize your productivity at home, consider limiting visual distractions in the area where you work. By keeping your workspace tidy and decluttered, it’s easier to stay focused on the task at hand. Closed storage such as boxes and cupboards instead of open shelves are an excellent means for creating a more zen home office. Ending each workday by clearing your desk is a great way to set yourself up for success the next day.

3

Infuse your home office with inspiration

4

Keep it comfy — and healthy

5

Be conscious of colors

When working from home, sometimes the days are very much one like the other.

To make sure you keep your energy levels high, decorate your home office with items that inspire you. Are you building a business from home? Perhaps you want to keep a mood board over your desks with images representing what you’re trying to achieve. Are you working to save up for a trip or a house? Put pictures of your goals so you can see them and stay motivated.

Comfort is essential, especially when we’re spending all our time in the same space. First, you need a great office chair. But you may also want to consider adding options, such as a standing desk and a lounge chair, so you’re not in the same position all day long. This will feel better, help you be more productive, and help you avoid work-related pain in your back, neck, and shoulders.

Different colors affect your mood in different ways. While red can make you feel stressed and aggressive, blue has a calming effect. By consciously choosing what colors you use in your workspace and being aware of how they make you feel, you can affect your mood, energy, and productivity during the workday.

Sustainable Home Designs Taking Over

1.

Natural Materials A serene environment is easily achievable with the use of natural materials like wood, stone and concrete. These materials lay the foundation of an organic landscape evoking a calming energy. With wood, veer towards lighter shades to create an open and airy space that reflects light. Concrete accents work well to add a flourish of a naturalistic look without going for the obvious with concrete flooring or fixtures. While using stone for countertops or walls reflects a modern twist to a room’s appearance.

Green is in - and that’s one design trend everyone seems to be in agreement with. Environmental conscientiousness is at the forefront of almost every discussion and interior design is capitalizing on the opportunity to infuse nature-friendly aspects into the home. We’ve rounded up the top sustainable home designs popping up.

Earth Tones

Gone are muted tones and taking its place are earthy hues. Saturate your home in shades of yellow, brown and red. The allure of rich colors to illuminate the home has taken root in the design sphere with the popular colors showing up everywhere.

3.

Living Walls The popularity of decorating with plants has exploded with plants of every kind being used to inject natural elements in the home. Taking things a step further, is the “living wall.” This vertical garden - if you will - is great to add a unique design feature to the home. If you’re short on space, this is a creative way to use greenery in your design plans without creating clutter. Yet this design trend goes beyond aesthetic - the functionality of this design is it improves air quality and improves health.

4.

Green Roofs Another trend that strengthens the move to biophilia is creating green roofs. A slew of luxury buildings opening up in hot ticket locations like New York City, Dallas, Chicago and Miami have been quick to adopt the trend. Like living walls, green roofs offer practical benefits. They are much more durable than standard roofs and more energy efficient.

Tips To Move Across The Country With Your Family

You need to be careful when it comes to moving across the country with a family. You’re going to want to take this a step at a time, so everything goes well for you. Here, you’re going to get the tips you need to start moving as soon as possible to your new home.

BOXES & PACKING Moving is something you need to pack for, and when you pack, it has to be done right. First, you’re going to need to figure out where you’re going to get boxes from.

One idea is to go to a local grocery store to ask them if they can give you a few boxes. Many stores go through tons of boxes every day, and they recycle them so they will provide them with a way to save themselves a bit of work. You may also be able to find moving boxes in bulk that you can purchase online, so shop around if that’s how you’re going to get what you need.

When packing, you’re going to want to make sure you label all of your boxes in the right manner. You don’t want to rush through and put things that are fragile in boxes that are not marked as such, or else you won’t be careful with whatever you have in the boxes. Even if a company is packing for you, tell them you want everything labeled. Generally, professionals will label boxes, but it doesn’t hurt to remind them to do so if they aren’t for some reason.

CHOOSING MOVING COMPANY Many moving companies can help you move if you don’t want to do all of your work. If you’re going to hire people to help, you have to make sure that they are charging a price that is worth it. Make sure you let them know that you’re doing a cross country move so they can give you a more accurate price quote. Also, a guide to cross country moving tips can help you to find the best and reliable professional movers for your move. Don’t just go with the first company you find because it pays to shop around and see who has the best

HAVENLIFESTYLES.COM

prices and avoid it because they charge too much.

Don’t just hire a moving service based on price, however, you also need to find out if they will be worth your money to work with based on the quality of service they provide. If you want to learn more about the quality of service you’re going to get, you’re going to want to look up reviews on a company to get the information you need. When looking at reviews, please make sure they are recent, so they are likely to be still true of the company if anything has changed with them recently.

any service, including moving.

DOING THE RESEARCH When moving on your own without help, you’re going to want to know if you can return your moving truck to a place in or around the city you’re moving into. Don’t get stuck in a moving truck that you can’t return without driving it far away. Many moving truck companies operate out of most major cities, and some are in smaller areas. When working with a moving truck service, make sure that you read reviews

TECH FOR THE MOVE If you’re moving far away with kids, they’re going to need something to do in your vehicle as you travel to your next home.

For instance, you can let them use a tablet to play a few games you downloaded before moving, and that should keep them busy for a while. But, if you go with electronics, make sure you have a way to recharge them when running out of battery power. There are many excellent vehicle chargers, so look into that to have things charging while driving your vehicle.

SIGNING UP FOR EMAILS There are a lot of options when it comes to moving; you’re just going to want to make sure that you know if a company has specials or not. Sometimes, if you go to the website of someone that does moving work, you can get a deal on their services.

For some websites, you’re going to want to make it a point to sign up for the email marketing list they have in place, so you know when they have some deals. Don’t think that you have to pay full price because sometimes you can find deals on

to only work with companies worth the investment.

Now you’re more aware of what you have to do when you want to move across the country with a family. Don’t rush this because you don’t want to make costly mistakes. Just use what you learned here, and in the end, you’ll do just fine.

5 Design Tips for Creating a

Luxurious Bathroom

There’s something very comforting about hotel bathrooms. The double showers...soaking in the tub. Nothing says unwind and relax like these bathrooms. Good news, you too can have your own hotel-style and luxurious bathroom in the comfort of your own home. Follow these few tips and ideas for inspiration to achieve your own spa oasis!

BY VA L E RY S OY

French inspired

Dreaming of Paris? Or perhaps the french countryside? This dreamy aesthetic encompasses all things luxury whilst maintaining functionality. With beautiful architectural elements, vintage accessories and natural materials, this style brings charm to your space. It can be achieved by use of antiques such as wooden tables and large french style mirrors for that classic look. No tub? No problem! Add a sparkly chandelier with a gilded brass mirror and finish off with a bouquet of fresh flowers to tie the space together for the French feel. Another tip is hardwood floors for the countryside feel. source: www.axor-design.com

Minimalism and Rustic Style

A perfect design for those who don’t fancy the all white modern or industrial look.

Add a bit of a boho twist to elevate the rustic feel of your bathroom. The key is to opt for more natural tones, materials and adding statement accessories such as plants and wood. Finish off with a warm printed rug to tie the whole room together.

source: Bence Balla-Schottner

Monochrome

Nothing feels more like a hotel bathroom than the scandinavian design. Its core highlighting minimalism, simplicity and functionality. It’s no wonder why this style is the favourite for many. However, not all of them look the same. Wood accents can be used to add a more modern farmhouse feel and of course plants! Adding greenery to your space is the quickest way to achieving the scandivanian aesthetic. You could also warm the space up by adding a pop of colour with a bright rug.

Ever considered throwing out all the colors and just sticking to one? Monochrome bathrooms can make a huge statement in your home, depending on your choice of colour, you can attain glamour, edge or even tranquil. All of this boils down to your choice of finishes. For instance for a more serene space, pair black tiles with a few wooden accessories and dimmable lighting to add to a peaceful ambience. If elegance is what you’re looking for, add metallic hardware elements to the space for a more edgy look. Perhaps you want to go all white? Many people opt for the all white bathroom but that doesn’t mean it has to be boring. Adding a few hints of black hardware for the fixtures instead of regular silver will make more of a statement. If black or white aren’t for you, go for a pop of colour! Blue, green, orange or red, the choices are endless!

H A V E N L I F E ST Y L E S . C O M

If your space is already good as is, consider making the bathtub the star of the show.

Get a metallic finish in either nickel, gold, tin or copper. You could also use a mural to be the focal point of the room. Match it with the colour of the bathroom and you have a beautiful space. You could also add double showers for ultimate luxury, keeping the fixtures simple and matching it with bold tiling will give it a hotel feel. You could also add marble to your space. This is the perfect material to add to your bathroom for that elegant finish.It’s also perfect as it accommodates multiple decor styles. Choose between white marble, marmara, gold and many more!

Millennials

and the Real Estate Market There’s an image of millennials that have been created by people in older demographics.

Millennials are supposedly a lazy generation, living with their parents, complaining about the way the world is going. Well, like most stereotypes, this one doesn’t hold true under further analysis. The idea of millennials as childish has already become outdated as they age into being the most prominent age group in America. The implications of this are big in a variety of areas as millennials’ spending power increases, and the weight of their preferences grow.

One area that is already seeing the relevance of this cohort becoming arguably America’s most important is the real estate market.

According to the Orange County Register, millennials now make up the largest share of homebuyers in America at 38%. While millennials acquired their first home later than other generations, this doesn’t mean that they weren’t interested in buying homes. The reality is that housing became significantly more unaffordable in recent decades, making millennials have to wait longer before becoming home-owners. But now, with millennials ranging from 24 to 40 years of age, they’re at an age where they’ve become higher earners, and are thus able to become first-time homeowners.

Millennial preferences differ from some of the previous generations.

According to the same report by the Orange County Register, areas like Aspen, Austin, and Montecito have all seen the benefits of being attractive to millennials. These second-tier markets have skyrocketed recently, with Aspen hitting a record high sales volume in the third quarter of 2020.

Millennials differ in many ways from previous generations, but one significant way is that they are not buying starter homes the same way.

According to Bradley Nelson, the CMO of Sotheby’s International, who was interviewed by the Chicago Tribune, it is not altogether rare for millennials to make their first home purchase a significant one. Nelson says “Millennials are finally coming out of the gate, and it’s not uncommon for the first

purchase as a first time homebuyer to be a multimillion-dollar luxury home in the U.S. or internationally.” This means that millennials are becoming a vital cohort for the luxury real estate market as well.

Real estate agents and people selling their homes are going to have to gear themselves towards marketing to millennials now. There are a lot of qualities that millennials emphasize that other generations might not have.

For example, environmental sustainability, technological compatibility, and with the pandemic, the ability to work from home effectively. Real estate companies are going to have to adjust on the fly, as if they can’t appeal to this younger demographic, they will lose out on a group that has aged into becoming the number one homebuyers in America.

Long represented as disinterested in home buying and making it on their own, 2020 showed that millennials are just like every other demographic that came before them. While the real estate market had a higher barrier to entry for millennials than other age groups, as they’ve aged into being higher earners, they’re just as interested in being homeowners.

Millennials’ importance will only grow in the coming years as they continue to become the predominant homebuyers in America.
