5 Tips to Set Up Your Favourite Corner
Being with oneself and one’s thoughts. Catching up with friends and family. Curling up with a book and a hot cup of coffee. A well-designed home corner can become the go-to space to engage with all that and more. These personalised nooks have the potential to become your very own haven to relax and unwind after a long, tiring day and a perfect place to spend your weekends. Setting it up, though, may seem like an intimidating task. However, to make that easier, here are some tips and tricks to elevate those under-utilised nooks and transforming them into gratifying spaces:
1. Look for the best view (or create it yourself)
The eyes love to look long and far; it’s restful and a massage for the senses!
Try to set up your favourite corner near a window that has views of nature with sights of trees, chirping birds and clear blue skies. However, if that option is not available, you can always bring the outdoors inside with elements like indoor plants, green living walls and, nature-themed art and accessories.
2. Make it comfortable!
It is important to design your unwinding zone for ultimate comfort. Add furniture that is cosy and snug like wing chairs, relaxing swivel chairs and recliners, lined with cushions in prints and patterns, to lay down and relax while enjoying the best view.
3. Remain connected with loved ones
In our modern world, technology is the anchor for all! It is vital that we remain in touch with our friends and family, especially in these testing times. Spending time with people often means connecting digitally, so make sure that you have good wifi and ease of access to technology in your favourite corner.
4. Touch up the interiors
Your favourite nook has a very different character in the evenings as compared to the mornings. Therefore, it is always a good idea to make it enjoyable for both times of the day and the different sets of ambiences they bring. Think – bookshelves and delightful art to look at, and warm lighting. These will make the corner an enchanting space even during nightfall.
5. Realise that everything is within
Our surroundings also vibrate our own energy! How can we spiritually charge an area?
By meditating, reading, drawing, praying, chanting, and connecting within, one can add to the charge of any space. Its vibration increases, and it comes alive.
These nooks and crannies, with thought, can be transformed into one of the most intimate areas for one to take solace in any residential design. No matter how the day has gone, there is always a sense of comfort in knowing that a cosy, welcoming corner awaits you back at home.
