In the ever-shifting world of design, interior design has unravelled itself from the traditional confines of aesthetics and functionality. It has now become a means to craft environments that evoke emotions, redefining the way we interact with our living spaces. At its forefront is technology, that utilises LED wall designs, projection lighting, motion-sensor technologies, and immersive audio-lighting, making emotionally striking aesthetics to help increase connectivity to one’s home.

Abhimanyu Chopra, Founder, Chopra’s Designs, says, “Innovative technologies such as projection mapping can be integrated into the built form where floors, walls, and ceilings can come to life to redefine interior finishes, offering homeowners a new perspective of their homes. These technological integrations can also connect you with far-flung places and notable art through digital projections, transcending physical boundaries. Additionally, these artworks can change and adapt over time using digital and kinetic technological elements, while reflecting different moods or seasons and providing an ever-evolving aesthetic experience. Interactive features can be implemented in children’s playrooms as well, where floors and walls respond to movement and encourage cognitive development by being a part of the design narrative within the space.”

Aiming to create a dramatic ceiling experience, a conventional ceiling design can be elevated using creative lighting and parametric design, with the interplay of light and shadow choreographed to precision. This transforms the space into an immersive realm that beckons visitors, making an otherwise mundane entryway a mesmerising journey. “As an introduction to optimum lighting, comfort, and well-being within a space, artificial skylights with dynamic LED lighting can be installed in windowless rooms or basements that mimic natural daylight and create a connection to the outdoors. Dedicated entertainment spaces such as home theatres can be upgraded through experiential design, where lighting and acoustic automation systems work in perfect harmony with the audio-video experience, immersing one in a comprehensive cinematic ambience,” adds Chopra.

Integrating these cutting-edge technologies within designs allows the opportunity to explore and strengthen the connection between the physical, digital, and the intimate. “As we embrace this transformative approach, the spaces become not just places to inhabit, but canvases for personal expression and emotional connection,” signs off Chopra.
