As the vibrant days of summer wind down and the rich colors of fall begin to emerge, it’s time to prepare for the back-to-school season. Whether you’re setting up a study space at home, redesigning your living or dining room, or updating your workspace, staying informed about the latest trends in interior design and furniture can greatly enhance your everyday life. Here at La-z-boy we have created this guide that will help you elevate your interior space with both functionality and style.
Declutter Your Space for Better Focus
A clean and organized space is essential for increasing focus and productivity. By decluttering, you create an environment free of distractions, perfect for study or work.
– Categorize items into four groups: Keep, Relocate, Donate, and Trash.
– Clear surfaces by keeping only the essentials you use daily.
– Organize your wardrobe by removing gently used clothes.
– Designate a dedicated study space for maximum efficiency.
Incorporate Functional Furniture
Comfort and efficiency are key when selecting furniture for your home. Properly chosen pieces not only support good posture but also create a welcoming atmosphere.
- Find your perfect seat: Whether it’s the Aries Rocking Recliner or the Vail Recliner,, La-Z-Boy’s chairs are designed to give you just the right amount of support, with adjustable headrests and lumbar support that make them ideal for both work and relaxation.
- Keep things organized: A stylish entertainment unit or console can help you store everything from study materials to your favorite movies, keeping your space neat and tidy.
- Go for multifunctional pieces: The Cory or Leo Storage Ottoman by La-Z-Boy not only adds a touch of elegance to your room but also provides extra storage for those items you want to keep out of sight.
- Light it up: A well-lit room can make all the difference. Combine ambient lighting with task lighting to create a space that’s both functional and inviting.
Make Your Space Tech-Friendly: Stay Connected, Stay Comfortable
In today’s world, having a space that’s tech-friendly is more important than ever. La-Z-Boy’s furniture is designed with modern life in mind, making it easy to stay connected while staying comfortable.
- Power up: Choose furniture like the La-Z-Boy Power NEO Chair, which comes with built-in USB ports and outlets, so you can keep all your devices charged and ready to go.
- Work from anywhere: Adjustable tray tables are perfect for working from your couch or chair—whether you’re catching up on emails or enjoying a snack.
- Control at your fingertips: Options with wireless remote controls let you adjust your furniture with ease, so you can find your perfect position without any hassle.
Create a Peaceful Atmosphere: Your Home, Your Sanctuary
Your home should be a place where you can unwind and feel at ease. By incorporating the latest design trends and La-Z-Boy’s comforting products, you can create a peaceful atmosphere that’s perfect for relaxation.
- Choose calming colors: Soft peaches (like Peach Fuzz, Pantone’s color of the year), blues, greens, and grays can help create a serene environment that feels welcoming and warm.
- Comfort is key: La-Z-Boy’s ergonomic recliners, with memory foam cushioning and adjustable features, are perfect for those long, relaxing evenings.
- Cozy fabrics: Opt for upholstery in velvet, microfiber, or cotton to make your space feel soft and inviting.
- Maximize natural light: Use sheer curtains or blinds to let sunlight filter in, creating a bright and cheerful room.
- Bring the outdoors in: Add a touch of greenery with easy-to-care-for indoor plants, which not only improve air quality but also add a natural, calming vibe to your space.
- Layer your comforts: Think plush throws, soft cushions, and cozy rugs—these small touches can make a big difference in how your home feels.
- Create your own retreat: Whether it’s a reading nook with a comfortable chair or a meditation corner with soothing decor, having a dedicated space for relaxation can make your home feel like a true haven.
