Beyond Binary
In a world rapidly embracing the spectrum of identities, our concept of home is evolving too. More couples are designing spaces that not only reflect their unique identities and preferences but also transcend traditional gender norms. Here's how you can create a living space that honors individuality and rejects gendered stereotypes.

Challenge Stereotypes: Begin by challenging the idea of 'masculine' or 'feminine' decor. Home design is about reflecting personal style and preferences, not conforming to outdated stereotypes.

Equal Representation: Ensure both partners contribute to the design and decor decisions. Your home should be a joint expression of your shared vision and aesthetic tastes.

Inclusive Spaces: Design spaces that cater to the interests and needs of all individuals in your home. This could range from a shared reading nook, a communal creative corner, or individual areas for relaxation and reflection.

Neutral Ground: Neutral colors and minimalist designs often strike a balanced aesthetic that resonates with everyone. Take INDUŌ's range of candles, for example. Their earthy, calm, and neutral tones, coupled with an array of fragrances, can seamlessly blend with any design aesthetic, adding a unifying element to your shared space.

Personal Touches: Add elements that represent your individual identities, such as artwork, photographs, or keepsakes that hold personal significance.

Celebrate Diversity: Make a point to incorporate elements that reflect your unique journey as a couple. This could be through symbolic decor, or a piece of art that speaks to your shared experiences.

Fragrance that Unites: INDUŌ’s fragrance options have been carefully crafted to appeal to diverse scent preferences, transcending traditional gender-based fragrance profiles. From warm, earthy notes, to fresh, invigorating scents, each candle can be chosen to reflect your shared preferences, creating an inclusive olfactory experience in your home.

Flexible Layouts: Opt for flexible, adaptable layouts that can be modified to suit the evolving needs and preferences of all inhabitants, promoting an atmosphere of openness and inclusivity.

Creating a home that transcends traditional gender norms is more than building a space that reflects you; it's contributing to a broader, more inclusive understanding of what a home can be. It's about celebrating individuality, embracing equality, and cherishing the freedom to be yourself within your own space.
