Why make New Year’s resolutions for your home?
In almost every aspect of your life, setting goals will help you to firstly focus on what you want to achieve, and secondly, improve your feeling of achievement once it’s completed! Since our homes are our sanctuaries, doing the best we can to make the most of them is of paramount importance and by following these five resolutions – or five of your own – you can feel even more proud of your home.
Embrace sustainable design practices
Resolve to incorporate more sustainable and eco-friendly design elements into your projects. Explore materials with lower environmental impact such as wooden blinds or shutters made from responsibly sourced woods. Use energy-efficient lighting and thermal blinds or curtains to prevent heat loss, and promote the concept of upcycling or repurposing existing furniture and decor. Also learn more about the great steps being made with recycled materials.
Stay trendy with timeless elements
Make it a resolution to balance contemporary design trends with timeless elements. While it’s exciting to incorporate current styles, focus on incorporating classic pieces and design principles that will stand the test of time. This approach ensures that your designs remain relevant and attractive for years to come. To help in this long term approach, look to high quality items made from premium materials. By lasting longer, you can enjoy a more timeless yet stylish space.
Cultivate creativity through continued learning
Dedicate time to ongoing education and exploration of new design techniques, styles, and technologies. Attend workshops, read blogs and magazines to stay up-to-date with the latest innovations in interior design. A strong commitment to learning will not only enhance your skill set but also keep your designs fresh and exciting well into 2024 and beyond!
Personalise your rooms
Resolve to create more personalised designs and spaces by actively selecting items that best suit your style. Take the time to understand your preferences, lifestyle, and needs, and integrate these insights into your designs. These can be related to materials, colours or patterns that best suit your personality and make you happy to be around. This personalised approach ensures that you feel a strong connection to your living spaces.

Make room for wellness and well-being
Prioritise the integration of wellness and well-being principles into your designs. Explore ways to enhance natural lighting, incorporate indoor plants, and create spaces that promote mental and physical health. Consider factors like positive colour combinations, ergonomics, and feng shui to ensure that your designs contribute positively to the overall well-being of the occupants.
