2 - Blurred spaces

Changes in society are blurring the lines between how we live, work and enjoy leisure time and this will become a major driver of kitchen and bathroom design trends.

The ‘Blurred Spaces’ concept says that technology and changing habits mean that design must accommodate all aspects of our lives as they merge into one. 

Other drivers such as an ageing population, concern for the environment and technology are all playing a big part in this blurring and it is affecting the traditional lines many manufacturers have between residential and commercial product development.

In this episode we talk to Nina Bailey, the UK design manager for Formica about this ‘Blurred Spaces’ concept and what it might mean for design going forward.
