What Makes a Home a Luxury Home?
Creating a luxury home, contrary to what is widely accepted, is not simply about size or the price tag; it’s a far more subtle undertaking. Luxury homes are recognized for their interiors, the level of detail, the design, the luxury living experience. Here are just a few of the ways you can classify a home as luxury, or work towards creating your very own.
Gourmet Kitchens
Most modern kitchens are an alchemy of function and style. They captivate the eye with rich textures, exotic finishes and bold hues. A luxury kitchen is also a seamless one, flowing into the rest of the house uninterrupted, with enough space to remain comfortable. State-of-the-art appliances together with inspired design breathe new life into kitchens, transforming them into gourmet spaces that elevate the entire home.
Integrate With Landscape
Bringing the outside in, or taking the inside out, has fast emerged as one of today’s luxury trends. An opulent home is one that is more than its walls; it blends what were one two distinct spaces and makes for the beginning of infinite possibilities. Some luxury homes are creating fully outdoor kitchens, workspaces and entertainment centres, while others are elevating their gardens and patios with state-of-the-art features.
Technology Breathes New Life
Pioneering systems that can be controlled remotely bring homes to luxurious life. From lighting that detects movement and security monitoring systems, to automated thermostats, blinds and appliances, the technological innovations that are a feature of modern luxury homes imbue convenience, connection and an exceptional experience. With them, a home is no longer inanimate. It moves and speaks, acts and responds.
Spa-Inspired Bathrooms
Escaping into a lavish bathroom takes you away from the stress, worry and monotonous routine of the day. Spa-inspired bathrooms marry features, offering beauty, relaxation and innovation. Just how far you want to take it is entirely up to you. Some luxury homes are fitted with bathrooms that feature long tubs and embellished mirrors, while others hold saunas, steam rooms and touchscreen mirrors. Luxury bathrooms are a respite within the haven of your home.
Wellness
Wellness runs through every interior of a luxury home. It is an attribute ingrained into the very fabric of the residence. To heighten the Wellness experience, there has been a trend towards creating home gyms, yoga rooms and spin studios. But they aren’t just a closed off space with a couple of machines. These are fitness centres, complete with open spaces for equipment and free weights, alongside entertainment options such as a television and sound system, pool and relaxation nook.
Working towards introducing some or all of these features into your home is your way towards luxury. Experience the possibilities of the luxury living experience.
