Zen Decor and Meditation Spaces Are Taking Over Home Offices: a Look at Wellness Room Designs
Briefly

As remote work numbers decline, homeowners are repurposing spaces in their homes, leading to a rise in wellness rooms. A report from CoworkingMag shows a drop in remote working from 17.9% in 2021 to 13.8% in 2023. Design consultant Jennie Berger notes that homes are evolving to focus not just on productivity but on creating spaces for unwinding. Wellness rooms, which may include saunas, meditation zones, and other features for mental and physical health, are becoming desired features in luxury markets, blending recovery with well-being.
Dedicated spaces for calm are definitely gaining traction as the home evolves beyond just work. It's not just about productivity anymore. People are carving out spaces specifically for unwinding and mental health.
Where a gym is focused on effort and output, a wellness room is about recovery, restoration, and mental clarity.
We're building spaces with saunas, steam rooms, cold plunges, and meditation zones. It's about supporting physical, emotional, and spiritual health.
