A warm home that contributes to the well-being of its occupants, and that is also functional and committed to sustainability. For Anouk of Lespardainterior designer, the decoration must “follow the evolution and social, cultural and technological changes of our society.” That is why it is about adapting the design of the spaces we inhabit to the personality and life of each one. “The new spaces respond to the growing demand to create environments that connect with the emotions and daily needs of the people who inhabit them,” says the interior designer, who heads the AdeL studio and is also an expert in biophilic design, a current of architecture that is committed to reestablishing these links between nature and humans.
What is the main trend of the season?
The sustainability It is established as the central axis of interior design, but taken to a new level. The use of organic and recycled materialssuch as cork, bamboo and natural fibers, will star in the most avant-garde spaces. We will also see a rapprochement with nature with the return of organic and curved shapes in furniture, that will offer a more fluid and natural touch, reflecting the trend of reconnecting with the essential. In the same way, neutral colors will evolve towards warmer tones and organic, with ranges of beige, terracotta and raw whites that provide serenity and balance. In parallel, technology in smart homes It will play a crucial role, but in a more subtle way, integrating invisibly, with technological systems that merge with the decoration without interrupting the aesthetics. Lighting systems that adjust automatically or solar panels that blend in with the exterior design of the house are some examples of invisible smart devices that are going to make their way into our homes.
How can you apply all this at home?
It is simpler than it seems and without the need for major reforms. For example, when we introduce curved and organic pieces such as coffee tables, lamps or sofas with rounded edges, we soften the geometry of the space, while getting closer to the patterns we find in nature. Likewise, we can also encourage the presence of sustainable materials in decorative details, such as natural fiber rugs, recycled wood furniture or handmade accessories. And, to consolidate the visual balance, opt for neutral colors on the walls or voluminous furniture in contrast with more vibrant elements or natural textures.
If you have to give the house a new look, where to start to achieve more effect?
Color! Do you want to instantly transform the atmosphere of your home? Paint the walls! Choose a neutral but warm palette, such as soft beiges and terracottas, with deeper accents. These tones, in addition to being cozy, offer a lot of versatility when it comes to being combined with bolder decorative pieces. Another way to obtain visual weight is by using different textures from the same color palette. Lighting offers us another option with great visual effect. Updating lamps, installing indirect lights or integrating smart systems, which adjust the intensity and temperature of light throughout the day, can completely change the atmosphere of any room. We can even generate an immediate impact, simply by rearranging furniture to optimize the flow of movement and create comfort zones based on our daily habits.
With the change of season comes the change of wardrobe, and also the time for order and cleaning. Any advice?
In autumn, we should follow the example of nature and let go of the superficial, get rid of the unnecessary. Organization and cleaning are essential to start the new season with renewed energy. Opt for a conscious minimalism approach, where you only keep those objects that truly have a purpose or emotional connection. To facilitate organization, it is essential to have practical storage solutions. Transformable and modular furniture, which allows you to optimize small spaces, will be your best allies. Open shelves, natural fiber baskets and multifunctional furniture will help maintain order in an aesthetic way. Don’t forget the outdoor areas. Cleaning and reorganizing terraces or patios, preparing plants for winter and planning the new flowering season, or adding comfortable furniture, will allow you to enjoy these spaces as a haven of peace. A tidy and clean environment not only improves the aesthetics of your home, but also positively influences your daily well-being.
