As New Englanders, we love nature. This passion goes beyond geography.
Schrock’s Latest Colors Use Biophilic Design to Bring the Serenity of Nature to Your Home
An innate affinity for the natural world is part of what it means to be human. This concept, known in architecture and design circles as biophilic design, has spurred a whole movement that seeks to connect people to nature through our built environment. The potential benefits of biophilic design are significant: Research shows that integrating natural elements like sunlight, greenery, water features, and organic materials into interior spaces can reduce stress, enhance mood, and improve cognitive function.
MasterBrand is going all-in on biophilic design with their new paint colors available this fall. Their cabinet brand, Schrock, demonstrates how earthy color palettes inspired by landscapes can be key to enhancing our quality of life while using natural materials like wood, stone, and organic textiles in your space can improve well-being, creativity, and productivity.
Schrock’s full line of paints, stains and cabinets can be found at Belletetes along with the service we’ve come to expect from New England’s dedicated home improvement partner since 1898. When it comes time to reimagine your space, the Kitchen & Bath design experts at Belletetes are here with some on-trend suggestions: new paints and stains from Schrock that can help bring your built environment back into alignment with our natural world.
