Well, isn’t comfort the new cool?

So, picture this - a Saturday afternoon, the soft hum of a cozy heater, a favorite book nestled on a plush cushion, and beside it, a steaming cup of cocoa resting on a perfect side table crafted from solid walnut. Sounds dreamy, right?

The whole idea behind Grace and Ashes is to bring this kind of blissful comfort to your personal living space. The kind that not only soothes your senses but also adds an undeniable edge of elegance to your home - we call this the rise of the 'Elevated Home'!

The Elevated Home: More Than Just a Trend

Major shifts in the way we live and work have made our at-home comfort a top priority. Call it duvet day decadence, wooly warm wonderland or elevated living; it's all about embracing that extra level of comfort while looking fabulously stylish, of course. Quite certainly a trend of late, but can you imagine it fading? We can't!

So, what does it mean to create an Elevated Home?

Firstly, my dear friends, it's not about creating a replica of a fancy showroom. Think textured throws casually draped over Mid-century modern chairs, soft rugs underfoot, or diligently selected trinkets adorning your mantel. The idea is to curate spaces with an intimate, cozy feel that also exude a hint of high-end sophistication.

Creating Your Own Elevated Home Space

Now, here's what I think - it's all about personalizing it to your taste. Start with distilling your aesthetic preferences and then slow-add individual pieces that make you fall in love with your surroundings. The key here is, taking it one step at a time.

• Begin by investing in well-crafted furniture pieces - a low-set coffee table, a chic console, or a statement armchair. Mix-n-match styles, you fancy!

• Next, add layers of warmth with throws, cushions, rugs. Not only do they provide tactile pleasure, but they also bag extra points for style!

• Finally, don't forget to add personality with décor pieces. They are your statement makers! Choose items that tell your story or reflect your journey. Flame-flickering candlesticks, precious travel souvenirs or even trimmed indoor plants!

Ultimately, the purpose is to make every corner of your home inviting and personal, while also maintaining a classy touch. Sounds like a sweet balance between comfort and style, doesn’t it?
