Homes have gone from being spaces conceived with a single function to becoming flexible environments where we coexist, work, rest and share time with the family. <\/p>\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">This change forces a rethinking of the distribution of spaces, functionality and even the way we understand comfort.<\/p>\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">During the Forum, reflections were made on how, many times, <strong>it is not the house that has become too small, but rather that it has stopped adapting to the current needs of its inhabitants<\/strong>. In many cases, small actions can ensure that a home recovers functionality and quality of life without the need for major renovations. <\/p>\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Aesthetics also generate value<\/h2>\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">One of the major themes of the day was the relationship between interior design and real estate value.<\/p>\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">A good interior design project does not consist solely of decorating a home. The choice of materials, lighting, the distribution of spaces or aesthetic coherence contribute to generating a better perception of quality and, consequently, increase the perceived value of the property. <\/p>\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">In an increasingly competitive market, these aspects can make the difference both in the sales process and in the ability of a buyer to imagine themselves living in that space.<\/p>\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-gallery has-nested-images columns-default is-cropped wp-block-gallery-1 is-layout-flex wp-block-gallery-is-layout-flex\">\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-large\"><img decoding=\"async\" width=\"1558\" height=\"1920\" data-id=\"76017\" src=\"https:\/\/www.llachserra.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/07\/interiorisme-disseny-5-1558x1920.jpg\" alt=\"\" class=\"wp-image-76017\" title=\"\" srcset=\"https:\/\/www.llachserra.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/07\/interiorisme-disseny-5-1558x1920.jpg 1558w, https:\/\/www.llachserra.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/07\/interiorisme-disseny-5-1280x1577.jpg 1280w, https:\/\/www.llachserra.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/07\/interiorisme-disseny-5-980x1208.jpg 980w, https:\/\/www.llachserra.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/07\/interiorisme-disseny-5-480x591.jpg 480w\" sizes=\"(min-width: 0px) and (max-width: 480px) 480px, (min-width: 481px) and (max-width: 980px) 980px, (min-width: 981px) and (max-width: 1280px) 1280px, (min-width: 1281px) 1558px, 100vw\" \/><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-large\"><img decoding=\"async\" width=\"1558\" height=\"1920\" data-id=\"76014\" src=\"https:\/\/www.llachserra.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/07\/interiorisme-disseny-4-1558x1920.jpg\" alt=\"\" class=\"wp-image-76014\" title=\"\" srcset=\"https:\/\/www.llachserra.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/07\/interiorisme-disseny-4-1558x1920.jpg 1558w, https:\/\/www.llachserra.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/07\/interiorisme-disseny-4-1280x1577.jpg 1280w, https:\/\/www.llachserra.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/07\/interiorisme-disseny-4-980x1208.jpg 980w, https:\/\/www.llachserra.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/07\/interiorisme-disseny-4-480x591.jpg 480w\" sizes=\"(min-width: 0px) and (max-width: 480px) 480px, (min-width: 481px) and (max-width: 980px) 980px, (min-width: 981px) and (max-width: 1280px) 1280px, (min-width: 1281px) 1558px, 100vw\" \/><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-large\"><img decoding=\"async\" width=\"1558\" height=\"1920\" data-id=\"76005\" src=\"https:\/\/www.llachserra.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/07\/interiorisme-disseny--1558x1920.jpg\" alt=\"\" class=\"wp-image-76005\" title=\"\" srcset=\"https:\/\/www.llachserra.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/07\/interiorisme-disseny--1558x1920.jpg 1558w, https:\/\/www.llachserra.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/07\/interiorisme-disseny--1280x1577.jpg 1280w, https:\/\/www.llachserra.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/07\/interiorisme-disseny--980x1208.jpg 980w, https:\/\/www.llachserra.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/07\/interiorisme-disseny--480x591.jpg 480w\" sizes=\"(min-width: 0px) and (max-width: 480px) 480px, (min-width: 481px) and (max-width: 980px) 980px, (min-width: 981px) and (max-width: 1280px) 1280px, (min-width: 1281px) 1558px, 100vw\" \/><\/figure>\n<\/figure>\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Small changes can transform a home<\/h2>\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">The Forum also put a very practical idea on the table: <strong>large investments are not always necessary to improve a home<\/strong>.<\/p>\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Renewing the paint, updating the lighting, eliminating unnecessary elements, opting for natural materials or reorganizing spaces are relatively simple actions that can completely change the perception of a house.<\/p>\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Wood, natural fabrics, neutral colors or more open spaces contribute to creating warmer, brighter and more functional environments, qualities especially valued by both owners and potential buyers.<\/p>\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Interior design is also a real estate tool<\/h2>\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">During the session, the role that interior design plays in the marketing of homes was also addressed.<\/p>\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Before making a purchase decision, people need to imagine themselves living in that space. A well-prepared home, with a clear distribution, good lighting and a careful presentation facilitates this emotional connection. <\/p>\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">In this sense, interior design becomes a tool that helps to better explain a home, highlighting its possibilities and making it easier for the buyer to perceive all its potential.<\/p>\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">A transversal look at the future of housing<\/h2>\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">The day featured the participation of <strong>Rub\u00e9n Llach<\/strong>, managing partner of Llach Serra &amp; Associats and moderator of the session; <strong>Sandra Guiu<\/strong>, CEO of Sandra Guiu Interiors and dean of the Official College of Interior Designers and Decorators of Catalonia (CODIC); and <strong>M\u00f2nica Llurba<\/strong>, commercial director of Llach Serra &amp; Associats.<\/p>\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Their contributions allowed interior design to be addressed from different perspectives, combining criteria of design, functionality, user experience and real estate strategy.<\/p>\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Watch the 9th Llach Serra Forum<\/h2>\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">If you were unable to attend the event or want to listen again to the reflections shared by the speakers, you can watch the <a href=\"https:\/\/www.youtube.com\/watch?app=desktop&amp;v=Z6aH2B0ihlM&amp;ra=m&amp;fbclid=PAZXh0bgNhZW0CMTEAc3J0YwZhcHBfaWQPOTM2NjE5NzQzMzkyNDU5AAGnxW9RT9Npxs3yBcuneMF-7f_Xk2PCKuqCOOeEz-cfj6LH5heIS0-KI4JFesc_aem_VNJiKcvf12ZljX7mJIY9BQ\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\"><strong>9th Llach Serra Forum<\/strong> on our YouTube channel.<\/a><\/p>\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">A conversation about interior design, residential design and housing that reminds us of an essential idea: <strong>spaces are not only built, they are also lived in.
