While some design trends come and go, others have long-term appeal to homebuyers. What should you look out for to future-proof your property investment?
Enduring design trends
Michele Pasca di Magliano, associate director at Zaha Hadid Architects, designer of Melbourne’s new luxury apartment development, Mayfair, says design trends today aim to enhance experiences that prospective home owners will value now and into the future.
“People want privacy, especially in urban environments, so designs now aim to maximise this experience,” he says. “They also value access to facilities and being surrounded by high-quality materials,” he adds.
Pasca di Magliano says a sense of privacy can be achieved through design features such as private lift lobbies that open directly into apartments. Access to amenities can also be enhanced through indoor swimming pools and cinemas. He adds that high-quality features and fittings include classic, hard-wearing materials, such as marble, that stand the test of time both in their durability and aesthetic appeal.
