Designers are embracing a new trend for furniture that makes how you live now more comfortable
Tom Dixon and other designers on their exciting new designs that mirror the ever-changing home
‘People’s homes are in a constant state of evolution,’ says furniture and lighting designer, Tom Dixon. ‘They say that people now move 17 times in a lifetime, whereas, 40 years ago, you’d move twice. Families are fragmented – couples might divorce or they might transition or they have grandparents moving in. There is a constant shifting of the shape of the home.’
And, like the way we live, interior design is evolving, and our homes are about to get a monumental makeover. Our living spaces are now our offices, our offices are now where we eat lunch, our lunch is made in the same space as families are gathering together. Furniture design is changing. It’s adapting to suit the way we live now – new shapes, new functions, new ideas.
‘It has all accelerated since Covid,’ Tom says. ‘Homes have to work a lot harder than they did before the pandemic.’
With our new routines, our new work-life balance and the levels of comfort we desire, there are new ways we can decorate our homes to help us get there. Here, the experts share their ideas, thoughts and favorite designs that show how you can make this shift.
