What is the Luxury Lifestyle?
When we talk about a life of luxury, most people think "opulence," "extravagance," and "exclusivity." For some people, it's traveling to exotic destinations, and for others, it's about living in a penthouse.
Sometimes we think luxury is only for royalty or celebrities. But that’s not the case. Luxurious living is within your reach. With a little effort and change of mindset, you can live a luxurious lifestyle.
Dreaming of a Luxurious Life?
Exclusive, elegant, and comfortable - three words that aptly capture the essence of luxury living. But how do you adopt a luxurious lifestyle for yourself? Luxury living starts with a luxury home. High-end furniture is an essential component of curating that space. Whether designed for a country estate or a modern penthouse, luxury furniture has to meet high standards both of aesthetics and of quality.
Whether you move to New York City, Los Angeles or somewhere in between, it's possible to create that lifestyle of luxury you've always wanted. Taking cues from luxury resorts that spare no expense to furnish their interiors, you can recreate that five-star experience with handmade designer furniture.
Healthy Living
Wellness is the epitome of luxury living. Without good health, everything else becomes irrelevant. You can safeguard your health and wellness by regularly exercising, ditching junk food, and eating a plant-based diet. Find whatever feels right for you and make health-conscious decisions.
Take Time for Yourself
Luxury is self-care. One common misconception is that luxurious living is all about flash and fame. But true luxury is also about physical and mental wellness. Take the time to take care of yourself. Try mediation or yoga, and don’t forget to treat yourself.
Cohesive Look
Less is more - that's the essence of owning luxury furniture. You don't have to heap your living room with a dozen pieces of furniture and decorative items. Doing that only overloads the room.
For a timeless cohesive look, get luxury furniture that can stand out while properly blending in. Throw in fresh flowers and luxury items and create a space that promotes positive vibes and luxurious living.
Why Invest in Quality Furniture?
High-quality, timeless pieces are truly an investment. Thoughtfully designed, well-constructed designer furniture lasts through the years and gains value over time—just like works of art.
Sustainability
Luxury pre-owned furniture also promotes sustainability. With superior materials and craftsmanship, designer furniture lasts much longer and wears much better over time. Why contribute more to the landfill? Opt for sustainable pre-owned luxury pieces instead.
Attention to detail
High-end furniture designers aim to create a finished product with unmatched quality. To do so, they take the utmost care of details from the biggest component to the tiniest. This could mean anything from ensuring buttons are correctly positioned to ensuring seams are securely and discreetly sewn. While some details go unnoticed for the average manufacturer, deluxe furniture makers won't overlook any aspect. When you invest in a luxury piece of furniture, you can be sure every feature is flawless.
Greater resale value
Luxury furniture differs from standard pieces of furniture in many aspects, including value. Unlike disposable furniture, luxury pieces gain value as the years go by. They're designed with high quality materials, and often their appearance improves as the wooden furniture or leather surfaces age.
Made from solid wood, and other fine materials, handmade luxury furniture keeps climbing higher in value. Think Rembrandt, Picasso, and Van Gogh—their paintings weren’t always worth millions.
The value of luxury furniture goes beyond its price tag. Ten or twenty years from now, it may cost twice or ten times more than its original purchase price. Investing in quality furniture with fine touches not only lets you enjoy a more luxurious lifestyle, but your decision to choose luxury will pay off in the long run. Like a fine wine, luxury pieces get better with age.
Spend now, save in the long run
Luxury furniture comes at a price that's higher than fast furniture, yes. You can choose a trendy mass-produced sofa with flimsy components, but with handmade pre-owned designer furniture, you get a product that looks stylish regardless of the current fashion trends and lasts a lifetime.
True luxury furniture outlives its original owners and is traditionally passed down to the next generation. Even after years of use, your handmade, second-hand luxury furniture will still look just as good as new.
Want to Create a Luxurious Lifestyle for Yourself?
One aspect of Living a luxurious lifestyle sometimes overlooked is investing in timeless furniture that creates beautiful but functional spaces. A piece that inspires luxurious living for its owner is well-crafted and reflects sophistication and elegance.
Skip that mass-produced fast furniture that falls apart and invest in ever-stylish durable luxury furniture that lasts a lifetime.
