Cool Gadgets for 2022

New bits of tech are ready and waiting to make your home more convenient, more entertaining, more interesting and even more beautiful. Not to mention smart as a PhD. “Designing spaces has been made easier in the last few years with advances and efficiencies in tech design,” says interior designer Eleanor Donnelly of Stelle Lomont Rouhani Architects. For example, “Clients are requesting charging stations where devices may be grouped together, out of view and eliminating the tangle of wires that previously trailed off every surface.”

These and many other pieces of technology can give a home an elegant designer look from window shades to night lights. Start updating!
