ADDED TO NATURE CART

BEAUTIFY YOUR HOME WITH CURATED HOME’S FLAURA AND FAUNA COLLECTION NOW AVAILABLE ON SHOPEE MALL.

-

Redecorati­ng rooms are all the rage now that quarantine levels continue to be eased and more home stores have reopened their physical outlets for decorators and homeowners to view, touch and appreciate.

Summer this year, Curated Home at Robinsons Department Store delighted shoppers with its special nature-themed collection put together by award-winning designer and Curated Home director Ito Kish. With the signature modern elegance palpable in his home accessory and furniture creations, Kish aims to bring vigor and freshness in dwelling spaces with an earthy Flora and Fauna collection.

“Nature has always been an inspiratio­n for me and it’s important for homes to have elements of that bring a sense of calm and even whimsy,” Kish said.

Among the collection’s organic inspiratio­n are foliage-shaped wall decors in metal and golden resin; ceramic planter vases fashioned intricatel­y to resemble the stem of a bamboo; and pillow cases with textured leafy patterns.

Meanwhile, glass decoupage trays present a visual story of forests and wild creatures. Opulent with gold rim, dish trays from the collection are perfect for either storage or decor.

Green space for solace

Although technology played an important factor in staying productive while in quarantine, home owners are also valuing quiet spaces where gadget-filled moments are exchanged for quiet time, reflection, or wellness pursuits like yoga or napping outside of one’s bedroom.

The work-from home setup also gave way to opening spaces and making them borderless and multi-functional. The living room, for instance, can also be one’s workspace or a play area for young kids. The kitchen isn’t just for cooking but also an entertainm­ent area for enjoying coffee or cocktails with visiting friends and family.

And just like that, the open hallway or balcony can be a well-lighted space for creating content for one’s social media accounts.

By this time, the plantita and plantito craze has resulted in full-grown potted foliage that enhances the super natural look of one’s home.

Hassle-free shopping

On 3 August, Curated Home’s home decor aficionado­s who delight in the woodsy, lush organic feel can purchase pieces from the Flora and Fauna collection via its very own Shopee Mall official store.

Kish surmises, “We want our customers’ shopping experience to not only be well-curated but hassle-free as well and having our own Shopee Mall store will help address that.”

Curated Home’s special edition will also be available online through GoCart and LazMall and in-store at Robinsons Department Store branches on 17 August.
