What’s hot right now? What design trends are people raving about throughout the industry? Check back often as we’ll be updating this section with news to report. Spring 2009 Focus on Intangibles Gone are the days when only the wealthy could afford items affixed with the luxury label. Many things once considered unattainable by "regular" people, i.e., high-end vehicles like BMWs, suites in four-star hotels, and first-class airline tickets, are now considered commodities due to their widespread availability. While luxury has traditionally been equated with having a high price tag, that is no longer the case. Luxuries now are more intangible, and are focused on enhancing your life. Today´s luxuries include sleep, time, comfort and relaxation…because these are all things that are found in short supply in most people´s busy lives. You owe it to yourself to do what you can to create a luxurious environment that soothes and refreshes, and you´d be surprised how subtle changes in your home or office can do trick.Diane´s Take: I´ve always been all about creating a comfortable aesthetic for my clients, so this luxury trend plays right into my strengths. As a way of enhancing the services I provide, I´ve recently started offering Private Quarters´ wonderful line of products for bed, bath and personal pampering. I hope you´ll visit www.privatequarters.net/belladesigns to see what´s available and then schedule an appointment with me so you can feel the textures of affordable luxury.
