The pandemic has altered our outlook and perception of our home

1. The pandemic has altered our outlook and perception of our home.

2. Introduction • The importance of functional, comfortable and visually appealing interior designs could not be emphasised more than now when everyone is spending their entire day within four walls. • DefineHomz, as one of the top interior design firms and housing a team of best interior designers, understands the significance of a home that is inviting, which is highlighted through the following text.

3. Occupied Schedules And Busy Lives • Our occupied schedules and busy lives that constantly entail a fast-paced manner of day-to-day traversing, whether on the professional or personal front, have led to situations where we fail to remember the solace and calm of our own homes as an individual and as a society. • When was the last time you soaked in the streaks of sunlight illuminating your house, spent quality time in your balcony with your family, or just admired the family portraits hanging on your walls? The answer would be such that it will elicit in you a desire for introspection as to what the meaning of a home has become to you and how it evolved during the pandemic when the four walls of your house became your office, playground, cafe, hotel, kid's classroom and whatnot.

4. Lockdown the New Normal • With the progression of months and the lockdown becoming synonymous with the new normal, our houses have become akin to a bubble of reality that we can't escape, bringing us face to face to the habits, rituals and daily activities that we once left behind. • It has enabled us to engage with the corners of your home that you once remodelled with great fervour but gradually disregarded it with other matters gaining quick prominence in your life.

5. There is no denying that the meaning of home over the years has evolved from a space that protected us from external disturbances to a place that provides comfort, retreat and relaxation. However, the nationwide lockdown restricted us into the safety bubble of our homes, making it our refuge and redefining its meaning for us again. • Some relationships were tested, some were strengthened, with families, roommates, and partners shoved into full-time inseparableness. This definitely led to clashes, but also the formation of collective hobbies, performing activities like stargazing while lazing around on the terrace with your family, or just sipping tea quietly in the calming and inviting environment of the balcony. Funnily enough, we have even managed to create a routine out of this chaos that differs greatly from the one we lived before. Our home as the safety haven

6. When work, studies, recreation and cooking are crammed in one space for all times, with no distinctive boundaries or demarcations for shifting your mind from one mode to another and lack of social interactions, some displeasure and discomfort are bound to happen. • Even spacious flats can quickly turn restrictive and appear like confinement when the human limits are stretched, and they are compelled to narrow down their sense of living to a few square feet. Finding the new meaning of home
