Can interior design transform a luxury property?

 Nowadays, interior design plays an important role in the transformation of any luxury property . Trends for 2022 dictate that multifunctionality, revivalism, comfort and contact with nature will be indispensable elements in high-end homes .

The COVID-19 pandemic influenced the presence of this type of components, unquestionably redefining the owners’ perception of the structure of spaces and their functionalities.

Throughout this article, you will learn about the latest trends and best practices within the interior design sector in luxury properties .

Interior design trends for luxury properties in 2022

Multifunctionality in different rooms of the home

The constraints imposed by the pandemic situation on a global scale particularly resulted in a versatility of indoor and outdoor spaces.

Luxury real estate , contrary to what might be expected, did not escape this pattern. For example, spacious kitchens have often been transformed into classrooms for younger children.

The rooms also have an office space to be used during the week. Separators, screens and curtains were, therefore, the solutions found to provide privacy to rooms originally allocated for other functions.

The rounded shapes

Curved lines and rounded shapes are also a trend in interior design in luxury properties.

The application of lines and round shapes in the decoration allows textures to be highlighted and to make greater use of the lighting itself. This line of inspiration is visible in the design of sofas, coffee tables, vases and ottomans, giving them a contemporary look.

A strong focus on strong colors

The use of a strong color palette in interior design is a constant in the luxury property segment.

Despite the boldness of this trend, the balance resulting from the combination of the different elements that give life to spaces continues to be the secret to obtaining a  perfect layout .

Therefore, the bright tones are mostly visible on furniture and decorative pieces and not so much on the walls.

Comfort and connection with nature

The giant of Russian literature Leo Tolstoy said that “True happiness is in one’s own home, among the joys of the family”.

Not exactly new, comfort  is at the top of people’s priorities, along with a small range of other aspects of their lives.

In this sense, the pleasant environment created in each room and the meticulous selection of furniture, with maximum personalization, are aspects highly valued by the owners.

The pandemic situation forced people to spend much of their time at home. This behavior gave rise to the need to bring elements from the outside into homes, with a direct connection to  nature .

Thus, we have witnessed the massive integration of potted plants and other natural elements into decoration . In parallel, we observed the inclusion of textures and materials such as granite and marble in Portuguese homes.

Vintage-inspired decor

Revival-style decoration adds a remarkable personality to every space in a home. This natural connection, with a retro style, is something increasingly reflected in interior design.

In luxury properties , the furniture, colors and patterns used often recall other eras.
