Confinement makes us change our way to look for our home

The COVID 19 pandemic has confined us all. After more than 60 days the houses have ceased to be that place where we used to go some hours, to become our homes for 24 hours.

This leads us to ask ourselves what we like and what we don’t like about our homes. It has been a good time to focus our attention on details that were previously overlooked. The confinement has made us value spaces that before we did not give enough importance.

Questions as daylight, if the sun comes to us, ventilation, if we have outside space as a garden or if we have swimming pool … questions that have made us think about how we want our home will be. The existence of terraces, balconies, gardens, galleries, sea views, proximity to green areas and, even, the presence of a swimming pool, become basic elements when choosing.

Until now, living in big cities has provided us advantages such as good communication, leisure offers, being close to the workplace … but after COVID19, more than one family can feel overwhelming because cities are very crowded and have limited leisure’s spaces.

“With the pandemic, cities will not lose population, but will be better redistributed by territory to the benefit of smaller cities in metropolitan areas”

Having a green area, mountains, beach near the house, allows us to go for a walk and breathe pollution-free air and surrounded by tranquility, are very important aspects that must be valued always but more now.

A factor that until now we did not take into account and that from now on is going to become an important point in our homes, is teleworking “The office or workplace at home”. A space that often was in a corner of the living room or a secondary room, is going to have its own room.
