Health is wealth. The 'wellness' space has grown massively over the past several years, with an increased emphasis on practices and products that benefit physical and mental health. Now, wellness-focused spaces are blowing up in the interior design world. Kris Jenner's expertly designed patio is the perfect example.
The Kardashian momager's porch, imagined by the inimitable Waldo Fernandez, emphasizes a connection to nature with its outdoor living room design. The health benefits of spending time outdoors have been extensively documented, but Jenner's space has the best of both worlds: access to the outdoors alongside well-crafted, cozy interior design.
The covered patio has everything you would find in a traditional living room: a television and plush sofa with throw pillows, a console table, and even a stylish table lamp. Despite the material comforts, you will never forget that you were outside in this space. A black and white fire pit provides a social space for late-night s'mores. On one side, an open wall offers a stunning view of the socialite's backyard. One can imagine that in the temperate Los Angeles climate, Kris would want to spend all of her time in this indoor-outdoor space.
'We're seeing an increase in wellness-focused spaces across celebrity homes, indicating that it will soon filter into the mainstream,' says Megan Slack, Head of Celebrity style at Homes & Gardens. She continues,' From David Beckham's cold plunge to Brie Larson's sauna, celebs are dedicating valuable space in their homes to health. It's one of the biggest interior design trends of the year.'
For those who aren't ready to build an entire sauna in their home, an indoor-outdoor space like Jenner's is a lower commitment option. It provides all of the health and wellness benefits of being outside while still being a beautifully designed space. Most likely, it doesn't even require a renovation. Whether it's designing a sunroom or outdoor living room, integrating the outdoors is always a great idea.
