Walls aren’t just background, they set the stage for how a room feels. The right artwork or decor can make a plain corner feel alive, personal, and inspiring. A single change like a bold canvas, a woven textile, or even a framed keepsake can shift the energy of an entire space. In 2026, wall art…
Lighting isn’t just about chasing away the dark; it’s about creating mood, shaping style, and even supporting our well-being. Over the years, I’ve seen how a single fixture can transform a room from flat to alive, or how a shift to warm, dimmable bulbs can make evenings feel more restful. By 2026, lighting design will…
Designing a kids’ room is no longer just about bold colors and whimsical decor. In 2026, such spaces are redesigned to combine functionality, imagination, and comfort; rooms that will be able to accompany a child through time in development and, at the same time, reflect their personality. I’ve noticed how quickly children’s needs shift; one…
Dining rooms have never been just mere eating places. They are the areas of a birthday party, areas where people socialize past the late hours, and where the family comes back together after a long day. In 2026, the dining room is taking on a new role. It will no longer just be a polite…
The home office is a room that has crept out of the shadows to emerge as one of the most vital parts of our homes. It began as an emergency solution during the pandemic, but has become a permanent feature of everyday life. And in 2026, the way we design these spaces is shifting again,…

When I started updating my own patio, I didn’t expect small tweaks like defining zones or adding durable seating would change…
Bedrooms are very intimate. They are our place of wake up and sleep, rest, and rejuvenation and even our means of escape into what we call a normal life. Unlike kitchens or living rooms which will be mostly designed to accommodate welcoming others, the bedroom is our comfort zone. In 2026, bedrooms are evolving into…
If the living room is where we gather, the kitchen is where the fun really is. It is the place where the smell of fresh bread, the sound of clanking glasses, and the buzz of talk happen as dinner cooks. But, kitchens have also evolved with the times. An area that used to be purely…
If the heart of a home is a kitchen, then the living room is its soul. It is the place where we relax after working days, meet our family and a bunch of friends. But, this area has transformed over the years; a classy formal parlor has been converted to all-purpose room where you can…
