Mental health has become all the more important these days of the pandemic. With more and more people working from homes, it is vital that you have a happier and healthier space in your home. If you are interior designing your flat in Trivandrum, here’re some ways to optimize your Living Space for Health and Mental Wellness from Asset Homes, prominent builders in Calicut, Trivandrum and Kochi. 

Declutter your space

Cluttered living space is not good for health! There sure exists a link between clutter and the stress hormone cortisol. Reducing clutter can make a huge difference in your mood. You can make your living space more spacious just by simply removing items from it. 

Make your rooms more open or well-lit

Inviting in more natural sunlight by opening up your windows brings in positive energy to your flat in Trivandrum. You can rearrange your existing furniture and decor. Remove things that are blocking sunlight. Use lighter day curtains like sheer curtains. Arrange furniture to get the full benefit of the light coming in. Make sure your desk is close enough to a window so that you can enjoy a view of the outdoors and take in the sunlight on breaks if you are working from home.

Using the right furnishings

Furnishings like accent pillows or rugs can completely change the look of your flat in Trivandrum! You can try out different decor arrangements of cushions. Consider doing up some longtime photos and frames. Even rearranging your books will give a transformed look to your flat in Trivandrum.

Upcycling

It gives out good vibes when you repurpose items like furniture pieces or textiles you already have. Sustainability is the in thing now! Recycled wood elements & eco-friendly textiles are innovative ways to introduce warmth to the room. 

Add a fresh coat of paint

Give your walls or furniture a fresh coat of paint to give them a new life. An accent wall changes your room altogether! Studies have shown that paint colours and decor can influence your mental health and overall wellness. 

Bring greenery inside

Plants and greenery included in space have been proven to improve air quality and the mood of the people there. A vertical garden wall in the living room of your flat in Trivandrum is quite a fashion statement!  Use more flowering and easy-maintenance plants like succulents to add more colour to your living space. These plants provide you with air purifying benefits for many months to come. There are many potted plants available in different colours and sizes to beautify your home.
