It's a reflection of cultural values, emotional connections, and evolving home space dynamics, reveals, new research by Godrej Interio, a business of Godrej & Boyce, the flagship company of the Godrej Group. Godrej Interio’s ‘HomeScapes’ study highlights how consumers’ personalities and values are uniquely expressed in their home and home décor choices.

It is also interesting to note that nearly half of the respondents (44%) envisioned their first piece of furniture as a communal space, envisioning it as a hub for interactions with colleagues, family, and friends.
The Homescapes Study by Godrej Interio revealed some very interesting facets of evolving consumer behavior thus throwing a spotlight on personal space and growth. According to the study, one-third of the respondents (33%) consider their home as a sanctuary, a place where they retreat for ‘me-time,’ sleep, meditation, self-care, or to spend time in their balcony garden. Whereas a substantial 74% of respondents believe that the furniture, furnishings, and decor they select for their homes not only reflect their personal growth but also signify their professional and financial progress.
The study also shows a linkage between personal space and social space in one’s home where nearly 48% of respondents engage in activities such as redecorating, cleaning, or refurbishing their homes prior to any big celebrations.
