DEPTH IN ARCHITECTURE & DESIGN

The housing communities are displaying new layers to the design plan. Designs are cautiously curated making it more purposeful.

HOME OFFICES

After the lockdowns and quarantines, the need for home offices has gained momentum. New homes and homes under renovation are using the forgotten corners to build flex areas and desks. With work from home and online schooling for children, the need for these spaces has risen. Architects are now taking advantage of these corners to build separate workspaces for the family.

The importance of using renewable and low maintenance material has allowed contributing towards increasing building efficiency. Using recyclable materials, structures that are independent, and establishments of various sorts that respect the planet are getting more continuous. However residential design trends have been changing all these years and will keep changing throughout but the one trend which is not likely to change is the incorporation of the green mindset to achieve sustainable architecture, healthy interiors, and elevated living environments.
