Learn more about a few of the top wellness trends that are taking center stage in home design.

GO NATURAL

Incorporating natural elements into the design of your home or workspace will help you feel more connected to nature and recharge your energy. Think of incorporating natural materials such as wood, stone, and plants into your design.

Another growing trend is biophilic design: an approach to designing spaces that connects people to nature and creates a sense of well-being. This can be done by adding elements such as water features, skylights, windows, and other sources of natural light, and plants throughout the space.

COLOR YOUR MIND

Did you know there’s psychology behind the colors you choose? Using colors that are calming and energizing can help you recharge in 2023. Consider incorporating blues, greens, and purples into your design for a calming effect. Or, choose bright yellows and oranges to help energize your space.

TECH OUT YOUR SPACE

Smart home technology can help you create an environment that is tailored to your needs. Work smarter, not harder, with features such as automated lighting, temperature control systems, and voice-activated assistants like Alexa or Google Home.

Light up your space with the Marvin Awaken smart skylight window, with built-in, tunable lighting that provides the right light at the right time.

BE FLEXIBLE

Flexible spaces in your home that allow for multiple uses are becoming increasingly popular in wellness design trends for 2023. Consider creating spaces that can be used for different activities such as yoga, meditation, or reading depending on your mood or needs at any given time.
