A sustainable home not only is great for the environment, but it’s also good for the energy in your house, and for you to maintain. We show you why, and how, to make your home sustainable in this article.

With all the news and talk of climate change, our awareness of trying to be sustainable in everything we do is heightened. And there are many ways we can be sustainable. By buying local, by shunning fast fashion, by consuming less single-use plastic.

But one of the biggest ways you can be sustainable is through your home. We don’t realize how much waste our home produces. And how it’s impacting the environment. And look, maybe you don’t want to do it to impact the climate. But you want to have a sustainable, eco-friendly home just for you to feel better as a human being living off of the earth’s resources.

One of the biggest ways you can maintain a sustainable home, and one that’s often overlooked, is by buying quality furniture. When you buy quality furniture, you reduce furniture wastage.

An Eco Friendly Corner of a Room Designed by Essajee Atelier

Quality furniture is made with more durable material than “fast furniture”. You’re not going to dispose of it as quickly as you would any cheaper furnishings. Because it’s made with high-quality, real material like wood, glass and real metal, this furniture comes in timeless, elegant styles. It’s not a trendy cheap lamp you pick up at a furniture chain store. Which means that you won’t feel the need to replace this furniture as often as you would “fast furniture”. This helps in reducing furniture waste at dump sites.

Mirrored Furniture Dressing Area

Mirrored furniture is a brilliant way to provide a sense of space and light to your house, and it comes with several benefits: it provides plenty of additional storage, keeps your room from feeling crowded, and provides an opportunity for some self-reflection.

Another benefit is that because this furniture comes in timeless designs, it’s easy for you to match other pieces with it. Items like mirrored furniture and hand blown glass will look amazing for ages and go with all types of home decor themes.

Hand Blown Glass Pendant Light

Pendant lighting, specially glass pendant lights has grown in popularity substantially in recent years. They are compact and simple to install in almost any room. This type of light source can be utilised anyplace you need to concentrate light on a small region.

Glass pendant lights, however, come in a variety of forms and designs. There is something for everyone searching for elegant lighting alternatives that combine well with their current décor and offer a low profile to the room, whether you choose conventional style pendant lighting or futuristic design with metal frames.

It’s also easy (and environment-friendly) to maintain high-quality, handmade furniture. You only need natural elements like water, oil, and maybe some soap to clean them. It’s easy to wash cotton bedding, wool throws and rugs made from natural fibers.

Sustainable Cotton Bedding

Synthetic materials are commonly used in average bedding, which can induce allergic reactions and respiratory issues in people who are sensitive. But today you may sleep in luxury bedding with 100% cotton sheets that not only provide a good night’s sleep but also enhance the design of your bedroom, pleasing your eyes as soon as you enter.

Handcrafted, sturdy furniture is the type you can pass down from generation to generation. You can move houses and it won’t get damaged. Even if it does, it’s easy to fix because it’s made from real materials, or you can simply take it back to the craftsman or local shop that manufactured it.

We understand, of course, that this type of furniture doesn’t come cheap. Each piece is a few times more expensive than the cheaper mass-produced furniture. Which is why fast furniture is so popular.

A well lit and Eco Friendly office space by Quirk Studio

Your home office can feel like a paradise if you work on thinking some great home office ideas. However, if it’s constantly congested and chaotic, it may begin to feel more like a hellhole than a refuge. The trick is to design an office space that has enough space for everything while still being appealing to the eye.

But consider that you don’t need to furnish your entire house at once. You can buy one piece of beautiful, handcrafted furniture at a time. This way you might be furnishing your home items over a period of one year. But guess what? Your home will look exquisite because you took your sweet time in matching each item to your space and theme. All your furnishings look classy and unique. And you won’t spend again and again replacing cheap furniture. And we all know that homes with organic, natural materials have better energy.

But the biggest reward is that the earth will thank you.

New year, new you, they say. Well, new year, new home, we say. We don’t want you to move homes. Not even uphaul your entire interiors. We’re saying, add a few new things.

It doesn’t take much to change up your interiors with well placed and well-chosen home decor items. Changing a light here, switching up your wall decor there, moving some furniture around. It makes your home’s interior design look refreshed and new. Ready to bring on a new year of positivity and change.

Living Room of 1101

The design brief given to Meena Murthy Kakkar (Design Head) & Vishal Kakkar (Business Head) – Partners at Envisage was a simple one. The owners wanted to create a home that offered the basic functionalities and was inviting and pleasing to hang one’s hat. Perpetual interactions with the client are an inevitable part of the design process. This ensured that every nook and corner had a dash of their personality. The result was a gorgeous space filled with warmth.

Living, Dining and Bar in harmony

Enter Jazz Billet and you are greeted with a foyer space with three zones of seating the Dining, Bar, and Living. The entryway leads you to these three spaces which are beautifully in sync with their geometric and eclectic design details. A hint of gold adds a royal touch to the modern stripes and geometric design. Multifarious seating options give every individual the choice of unwinding in their own comfort zone. The hospitality and inviting nature of the inmates truly reflects in the structured creation.

As you walk in through the flow of intricate design you can see the space illuminated with lights of varied designs. Pendant Lights, wall lights, table lamps, and sconces give a bright appearance to this spacious abode. Adding a lap of luxury is the automated lighting system that surrounds this home. The selection of furniture is minimalistic yet chic. Modern and classy Bar chairs, and lavish upholstery of sofas in the Living room exhibit elegance. The contrasting hues of the Living room amplify the look.

Whilst the exquisite design are choicest wall accents. Modern abstract wall frames adorn the dining room and a wall mirror reflects the dining table to add charm. The passage gives you warm vibes with circular family pictures beautifully hanging on walls. and the Living Room’s gallery wall increases the style quotient. The console table at the vestibule augments their style through romantic candle holders and a minimalist mirror.

Storage behind Panel wall with lights

A beautiful open layout with spaciousness in profusion was challenging in terms of storage space. The pretty detailing and furniture setup was allowed to take center stage by hiding the storage in a panel patterned wall decked with harmonized wave like lights. This made for great storage space without cluttering the space with more furniture.

Simple Kitchen with Patterned Tiles

The bar space oversees the kitchen which is kept simple in shades of beige and lavender. The printed tiles add pattern to the muted look of the kitchen and harmonize it with the space.

Bedroom in Earthy Hues

Earthen hues in the bedroom lend a tranquilizing ambiance to the most peaceful zone of their home. A beautiful blend of textures with rugs, upholstery and wall panels provide a beautiful space to relax. The low key lights hidden behind panels and bedside lights add to the amorous look of the bedroom

Opulence and comfort lie at the heart of this simple and harmonious home designed by Envisage. Belonging to the Defence industry the inmates had their own collection of artsy pieces through their voyages over the years. A perfect amalgam of modernity and classic design this home is a pure reflection of the occupant’s warmth and love.

Color for Energy

The use of energetic colors is a sure way to hike your spirits. Nope, I’m not suggesting painting your walls, but making diminutive changes. How about adding a dash of color in the form of cozy cuddly pillows? A few happy colored pillows will not just add brightness to the room but will also make you feel snug as a bug in a rug. You can also play around with your bedsheets, cotton bedcovers, and quilts. Bedcovers and quilts come in beautiful designs, patterns, and colors. I strongly feel that a bedsheet alone is not captivating enough. Quilts and bedcovers add more elegance and warmth and the colors used can enhance your mood perfectly. Red, no doubt is the quickest stimulator of the brain but yellow brings in a happy mood, while blue and green bring in serenity and calmness.

Walls are a common focal point in any room. Styling your walls gracefully will further enhance your bedroom space. There are multifarious options to choose from. You can invest in a simple floral wall painting or a romantic piece of art. Picture frames exude charm and elegance. Hang in pictures that make you feel good and happy. A happy wall gallery will also bring in a lot of positive vibes. Wall murals are also trending and give a chic look to your walls. These are a form of metal wall art and look truly stylish. You can add a Venetian wall mirror to give the royal touch to your bedroom. Too many mirrors do not make a great bedroom so make sure you balance it right with your dressing area. A horizontal wall mirror above the headboard would be ideal for wall decor. A beautiful wall clock or a vintage cuckoo clock will cater to style and functionality both.

Bedroom Decor

Showpieces and other enticing home decoratives can be added to style your bedroom. You can incorporate a classy table lamp on the side tables of your bedroom or you can add a cheerful photo frame.

Mirror reflecting Dining for food and wealth enhancement

Reflect the right VASTU through your mirrors to enhance health and wealth:

• It should not be placed in front of the entrance door as it reflects away the energy entering the house.
• It should be avoided in the bedroom and if placed should not face the bed to maintain the good health of the inmates.
• To double your wealth it is nice to have a mirror in front of your locker.
• Another way of attracting food and wealth is by placing a mirror reflecting the dining table.

Eventually, it is important that the house looks eccentric and a happy environment is set in and I bet mirrors can do the MAGIC!!!

Decluttering

What do you begin with is one BIG question??? The best part about shifting to a new house decorating ideas is de-cluttering it is not just about getting rid of unwanted things but also keeping negativity at bay! So make sure you don’t bring along anything that is not required to your new house.

Color Palette

Next thing to decide in designing your new home is the color palette. Choose a set of hues that you would like to play around with while designing your modern living room. This color scheme will help you decide your wall colors, your upholstery and will make buying furniture and décor simpler. Try not having too many colors. Any bright color you choose can be in the form of a wall paper, an art or just one bold colored wall. Experimentation is always welcome.

Plan your rooms

Plan each room at a time! Go through home design magazines, pinterest and other websites to fetch ideas and make a collection of these so that you can show your designer or make your own selections of tiles, furniture, bathroom fittings based on these. Having your choices organized at one place will be of great help! (It could be cut outs or image folders in your laptop!)

Furniture

When it comes to the purchasing front, list down the essentials coz so many things will attract you when you are out in the market that buying all which pleases your eye will only end up cluttering your home. Also remember to decide on the must-haves and things that can be on the wait list (A sofa set might be a necessity but a rocking chair in the balcony can wait!) Furniture is going to last long so do not compromise on quality!

Upholstery

Now that you know your colors and your furniture the grand look depends on your choice of upholstery. You can keep it simple or bold. Play around with your color palette and make your rooms bright, lively and a complete joy to be in! The fabric, the print, the color are going to set your mood each day so make sure you select the best.

Décor

Finally it’s the little things that matter. Get your hands on unique home décor and accessories. A good lamp or pendant lights can instantly bring spark to a dull spot. Stylish vases with or without greens can add life to room corners. Tasteful wall art can do up your room like nothing else can. And my favorite has always been mirrors. Adding mirror elements to your room does not only add depth but brings in a lot of elegance and charm.

And to bring out the best it is important to keep a minimalist approach. Do not add too many colors, too much print on tiles, excess of furniture or plenty of accessories. Anything too much is not too good and hinders the beauty of the house.

And as you are set to go a tip you would swear by: Make sure to get all the carpentry, flooring and tile work done before you move into your new house. If you think you can get it done while staying in, then you are inviting a hell lot of frustration!
