After the change in consumerism and lifestyle since COVID-19, it’s probably safe to say we have all changed our lifestyles in one way or another.

While the struggle to find comfort within our comfort zones continued for over a year, have you ever thought of ways to make that part of your life easier?

Are you part of the crowd who constantly tried bringing infrastructural changes into their residences to increase the very comfort we all longed for?

This brings us to the constantly evolving and changing trends in lifestyle and comfort that have led to a significant increase in the practice of interior design.

Wondering how? Let's go back in time and take a look!

A lot of introspection has been done over the years, which has resulted in the evolution of housing and interior design.

People not only prioritize style but also comfort. Eco-friendly trends, colour schemes, technology-driven houses, etc., have all been a part of the 21st-century lifestyle shift.

However, our main question still remains intact - Has this change in lifestyle increased the practice and study of interior design?

In a country like ours, where comfort is the basis for building what we call a 'dream home', interior design as a profession has noticeably increased.
