Hi, my name is Joti Reehal
and I’m the Creative Soft Furnishings Designer at Asraana.
I’ve had a lifelong passion for soft furnishings…and…over a 30 year period, I acquired the skills, knowledge and knowhow of l manufacturing them.
Be it for indoor or outdoor use, I understand every detail of how cushions, throws, bench seats and pouffes need to be made to get the best out of every fabric, its finishes, trims and fillings.
The idea to start Asraana is something that’d been in my mind for a long time. It’s an idea that kept cropping up and refused to go away.
Maybe it’s these ideas that shouldn’t be ignored. Maybe it’s in these ideas that lie the seeds of our destiny. And that’s honestly how it feels.
Recently, the birth of Asraana became much more important.
Why? The simple and honest answer is due to the Coronavirus pandemic.
You see, the world has come to a grinding halt.
The pandemic has been utterly tragic and we’ve all had to adapt and change our lives – literally overnight.
But…
The one thing that hasn’t changed (and has become even more important) are our HOMES.
Our homes have now become places of work, offices, school classrooms as well as gyms and relaxing areas.
All of a sudden, the home… where we just slept, ate and rested has become our haven of security.
Now more than ever, we should be looking at having even more beautiful environments that ooze luxury and comfort.
It’s vital to understand how a comfortable and luxurious environment can positively impact our overall wellbeing.
Stats show that the amount of video calls we now make on a daily basis has skyrocketed…
…We’re now starting to realise the environment we live in contributes massively to our mental health, as well as how we’re portraying ourselves over daily video calls.
Having a clutter free, swanky and chic looking background is so very important in portraying a professional image online.
Being in lockdown, many of us have fallen into a trap of non make-up days, dressing casually and not really taking care of how we look.
But…
Have you felt the difference to your vibe, mood and to ‘you’ when you do look after yourself and put on a great outfit?
When you dress up, have your hair and nails done and put some makeup on, it really makes a difference, doesn’t it? Of course it does!
That’s exactly how you feel when you ‘dress your room’ with stunning looking soft furnishings!
Whether it’s an inside space or outside environment, it’s not necessary or even possible to change large pieces of furniture regularly.
However, changing up your cushions, throws and accessories infuses your room with fresh and clean vibes and positively impacts your wellbeing. It’s a beautiful and simple change that has a lasting effect.
