Is ‘Practical Luxury’ a thing?
Today, we all talk about luxury, sophistication, lifestyle, extravagance, and every other synonym related to luxury. One thing that’s common is the need for space to display such lavishness. And, that’s the one thing we all crave the most when we are living in our homes. Luxury, for most of us, has simply been just a concept that we see as representative images in a fancy brochure, but not many of us get to experience the exact thing for real. That’s where the emergence of ‘Practical Luxury’ takes place. This article talks about the evolved concept of what we know today as ‘Practical Luxury’ and how real it is in today’s time.
Luxury 101
To understand what ‘practical luxury is let’s dive deep into the concept of what defines luxury. Imagine a world-class gymnasium, a landscaped garden designed by a renowned landscapist, and a sports academy where renowned sportspeople offer the best training/coaching. In simple terms, imagine what you really want and add a little jazz to it. That’s how a simple need turns into a luxurious one. Now, talking about ‘practical luxury’, the idea is to implement those imaginations. So, how do we really do that?
Making it affordable
The first thought that crosses everybody’s mind while imagining something so luxurious is, “Can I really afford all this?” In the end, it all comes down to affordability and if luxury isn’t used at all, there’s no point in calling it ‘practical’.
Including nature
We all have different ideas and understanding when it comes to luxury. We measure them on different scales. Some do it on the inside and some look for it on the outside. ‘Practical luxury’ is basically a mix of both. You include a little bit of nature inside your home in the form of indoor plants that are even ‘Vaastu-compliant’, and you include a bit of contemporary art in your garden.
With intelligent designs
When we talk about design, it includes both interiors as well as exterior. ‘Practical luxury’ is not at all about space. It’s all about utility. How optimally you utilize the available space and how you elevate its look aesthetically, is the primary motive of ‘practical luxury’. On the outside, the design can be about the balcony, the wall paints finishes… all these accounts for intelligent designs.
Practical Amenities
Luxury is all about enhancing one’s quality of life. Anything that adds to improve the quality of life, comes under the purview of ‘practical luxury’. Be it for the advanced amenities like clubhouse, gym, swimming pool, indoor games, kids’ play area, multipurpose hall, and so on, or be it for rooftop amenities such as an infinity pool, fitness centre, gazebo, jogging track, stargazing, and so on.
