Peaceful living in a quiet home

Whether you work from home, have a new born baby, or simply crave a quiet and calming environment, Bosch listens to your needs.

In such a fast paced, connected world, switching off has become an elusive luxury. But this constant noise can be damaging to our mental health. A peaceful living environment is a priority for the modern population. According to Quiet Mark, 82% of Brits would like to make appliances in their home quieter.

We’ve also taken our work into the home environment, and the lines between both have become blurred. In an open space living area, there is often no quiet room to escape to and focus on deep work.

Bosch has partnered with Quiet Mark in an attempt to support the Quiet Revolution. Quiet Mark assesses and certifies appliances and products that produce the quietest solutions to unwanted noise. Look for the Quiet Mark logo on our appliances moving forward to ensure they promote a more quiet living environment. Opting for products with the Quiet Mark certification is a sure way to create an environment that won’t disturb the peace.

So what else can we do to create the most peaceful home environment?

When we talk about a peaceful home, it’s not limited to sound. Clutter, scents, and décor can also add unwanted noise to a home. A clean, organized, and uncluttered space can actually promote better mental health. According to research, clutter can affect our sleep, anxiety, and ability to focus. So to promote a quiet and peaceful feeling in your home and improve mental clarity, less is more

It’s easy to get attached to objects, but hoarding too many material items might be weighing you down in more ways than one. A good declutter can help you to feel mentally lighter, calmer and turn down the incessant noise in your mind. Decluttering and organising your space means you know what you have and where to find it, making your day-to-day much smoother. A great place to start is your wardrobe. You may find you don’t need to buy as many new items, and can refresh your existing items with a tool like the Bosch FreshUp instead.

It’s amazing how closely colour is linked with human psychology, and it can have a huge impact on our emotions and stress levels. Colours such as red are associated with urgency and anger. While a palette including greens and blues can make a person feel more calm and relaxed. Natural additions such as lighting and plants can also contribute to a more serene environment. Consider neutral calming colours such as beiges, nude, sage, blues and pale lilacs rather than loud and bold patterns. Introduce calming scents such as lavender and chamomile for that added feeling of relaxation.

The biggest appliances, such as washing machines, dishwashers, and even kettles, can be the biggest source of interruptive noise. Browse our range of Washer Dryers and Washing Machines, which feature Eco Silence Drive motor and Anti Vibration Design for calm, silence, and peace at home. Our dishwashers also feature the Silence Programme, so the dishes are rinsed, cleaned and dried with limited background noise, letting you focus your mind where it’s needed most.

We also have a range of small appliances that have been certified with Quiet Mark. Our coffee machines, hand mixers, hand blenders and vacuum cleaners are silent enough to ensure nothing disturbs your everyday life

A quiet and peaceful home environment shouldn’t be the exception to the rule, it should be the norm. That’s why we’re working hard to build an appliance range that helps you enjoy peace and serenity in your home.
