In the digital age, it is easy to fall into habits like binge-watching our favorite TV shows for hours on end, or doom-scrolling on our phones. (Be honest, we all do it.) And that's why when the new year rolls around, so many of us promise to make more of an effort to go "tech-free". Well, this latest design trend might make all of that much easier. Introducing the 'digital detox corner'.
Though simple in concept, this latest interior design trend highlights what many designers say homeowners are searching for right now: places of tranquility in their homes, that reflect their personal style and interests. "Digital detox corners are an intentional retreat within the home that prioritizes analog living," explains Los Angeles-based interior designer, Dre Shapiro, of Dre Designs. "In our hyper-connected world, I feel it is important to design spaces that promote balance, personal reflection, and meaningful interactions."
