Creating Comfort + Sanctuary in our commercial spaces by exploring curved cocooning surfaces and details with relaxed forms creating soft fluidity. As we continue to assess alternative work styles and the transition back to a new type of workspace, we seek places that evoke optimal comfort and a deepening emotional connection.  

We embrace the amplified trend to create environments that foster physical and emotional wellness with a sense of home, contributing to workers happiness, health and productivity. This continued shift is crucial to cultivating spaces that confirm ways in which the built environment can keep us safe. Healthy spaces and materials. Natural light and fresh air.

Material selection is centering on the grounding power of earthy neutrals to bring comforting tranquility and balance to interiors. Designers are pursuing a subtle, essentialist aesthetic, stripping back decoration and complication to find a sense of calm in materiality. Spaces that enable moments of quiet reflection and focus are key design features that help to support emotional wellbeing. Tactile textures create a surface that feels grounding and familiar. Fresh clean neutrals, clay tones and watery teal ground the palette. Adding layers of soft surfaces create the feeling of fluidity, tactility and comfort.

This palette invites us to embrace a new awareness of self in our collective spaces and creates foundational wellbeing. Explore the Cocooning 2021 trend along with our products that will ground your space.
