More Than a Pool: Redefining the Outdoor Living Space
…“We need a place to call a sanctuary,” says Irikat, Director of Design & Marketing for Lunada Bay Tile, “the place where you can relieve anxiety and chaos and stress.” He explains that prior to the pandemic, most people achieved this outside of the home: going on vacation, socializing with friends, visiting family. Now, people have to find ways to decompress and destress in their home environment. …It’s how these features contribute to their new lifestyle to create this sanctuary.”
…“People no longer want their pool builder to just dig a hole and make a place to jump in the water,” he says. “The outdoor space is a canvas, and your layout is the painting that goes on that canvas.”
…“More than ever, people need to connect with themselves, with their family, with what’s important to them,” Irikat says. “People want to take care of themselves by creating a personal space that contributes to mental and emotional healing.”
