The Sensory Home - Make your home a sensory haven

WELCOME TO THE SENSORY HOME ®

When we think about home decor and interior design, we tend to think about the trends rather than considering our senses. Yet, sight, sound, touch, taste and smell all need to be considered to have a happy home, which applies to everyone, not just neurodiverse individuals.

It’s time to re-write the rule books and take a more mindful approach to how we set up our homes. It’s crucial to our wellbeing and will create a home that is calm, future proof and above all, happy.

Colour plays a significant role in sensory design, as it can influence our emotional and physical responses to a space. @thesensoryhome partnered with @duluxheritage and picked tones reminiscent of natural elements and surroundings. The colours are soothing to the eyes and calming to the mind, triggering feelings of tranquillity, relaxation, and harmony.

Tip: Painting the ceiling deep green creates a sense of intimacy, enclosure, and a feeling of being surrounded by nature.

We chose ceramic worktops for @thesensoryhome ensoryhome kitchen, and here’s why.

Colour: The material comes in a range of colours and patterns; this allowed us to choose a shade that fitted in with the calm and natural design of the kitchen.

Durability: Ceramic worktops are highly durable and resistant to scratches, heat, and stains. Perfect for busy kitchens that may see lots of spills or accidents.

Hygiene: It’s non-porous and so doesn’t absorb liquids or food particles. This makes them easy to clean and more hygienic than other materials such as wood or natural stone.

Heat resistance: They can withstand high temperatures without being damaged or discoloured.

Eco-friendly: It’s a natural material which is environmentally friendly. They are also recyclable, making them a sustainable choice for your sensory kitchen.

The worktop is called Surface 2.0, the colour is Sand from @rakceramicsuk part of @rakceramicsofficial

Window dressing plays a crucial role in sensory design, as it can help to improve rest and calm within the home. For example, the fabrics we choose for the bedroom are integral for getting a good night’s sleep, as they help block out the light or diffuse bright light to create a calming environment.

@hillarysblinds new ‘Calm Living’ collection aligns with the sensory design principles and were our chosen partner for @thesensoryhome . The range offers roman blinds, roller blinds and curtains, all with blackout options. This broad range of window treatments, made from sustainable and natural fabrics, allowed us to adapt the fabric choices depending on the functionality of the rooms.

The Sensory Home has been working with @dfs on their #dfsfeelgoodhome launch, which showcases their new collections. The event's focus is how furniture should make you feel - and this is where sensory design comes into play. Research shows that our home environment is intrinsically linked to our mental health, so we must ensure all spaces activate the human senses. I had the honour of working alongside colour Guru @m_shillingford the creative director of Dulux, renowned sleep specialist @annemarieboyhanco from the sleep care co, and industry expert Lou Petersen, head of design and innovation at DFS. The sensory home was responsible for designing and creating the sets, styling the event, and being the sensory design expert. Designing with our feelings and senses is the future of Interior Design.

COLOUR ✨

“Colour has an undeniable effect on the way we feel when we enter a room; it is highly emotive and can relieve stress and anxiety.” What colours make you feel calm?

HAPPY TRIGGERS ✨

“Whether it’s a favourite colour, family photographs, a keepsake or artwork, think about your own
happy triggers and try to incorporate them into your home.” One of mine is art, what are yours?
