These May 2021 designs add unique modern and minimalistic details to each home. While houseplants are always a nice design feature, they can be difficult to care for.
Luckily, the South Korean label Slow Pharmacy came up with a minimalistic approach to incorporate greenery into a home. By preserving plant specimens in elegant glass vials, Slow Pharmacy curates an everlasting decorative feature.
Another noteworthy design is the Wellness Retreats smart bed bases and frames from Ergomotion. This bed design helps to care for not just the mind but also the body and spirit. With its integrated sound therapy, charging stations, and adjustability, the holistic smart bed is designed to recalibrate a sense of focus and serenity.
