In the world of luxury household management, staying on top of the latest trends is essential. Discerning clients are accustomed to the finest of things in every facet of their lives, and that extends to their home too.
This means as a House Manager you must have a proactive approach to staying up to date with the latest trends and ensuring the service you provide aligns with the most current and exclusive offerings.
One trend that we have recently seen a rise in was preserved flower bouquets. These are real flowers that undergo a special treatment to maintain their natural beauty for months, and sometimes even years.
The appeal of preserved flowers lies in their remarkable longevity and minimal maintenance. Unlike fresh blooms that wilt and require frequent replacements, preserved flowers demand no watering, trimming, or special care.
This not only eliminates the ongoing costs associated with purchasing and maintaining fresh flowers but also frees up valuable staff time. Imagine stunning floral arrangements without the constant need for replacements.
As we saw in 2024, the rise in individuals looking after their wellbeing has skyrocketed, and that is no different in 2025. In fact, luxury homeowners are now more than ever prioritising their wellbeing through many different methods. Home owners are building dedicated wellness spaces within the home such as state-of-the-art gyms fitted with the latest equipment, yoga and mediation studios as well as saunas and plunge pools for athletes after an intense workout.
Be proactive and think about what kind of methods your client would prefer and discuss with them if they would like to implement any of them in their home. Make sure you’re staying informed about the latest wellness trends, fitness equipment or emerging wellness practices, and continue to proactively suggest these additions to your client.
In 2025, branded residences are becoming increasingly prevalent across the globe, meaning collaborations between developers and luxury brands are reshaping the expectations of the ultra-wealthy.
These discerning homeowners desire a lifestyle seamlessly integrated with their favourite luxury brands. They seek bespoke kitchens by renowned chefs, curated art collections from leading galleries, and even home theatres designed by Hollywood sound engineers.
This "branded everything" approach extends beyond tangible goods. Residents expect access to a curated lifestyle, from private jet charters and yacht rentals to exclusive events and personalised concierge services.
The homes of the future for the ultra-wealthy will not merely be houses; they will be designed to anticipate your clients every whim and deliver unparalleled experiences. Soon we will start to see more residences where artificial intelligence seamlessly integrates with every aspect of daily life. Advanced home automation systems will transcend basic control, evolving into sophisticated ecosystems that learn and adapt to individual preferences.
Appliances such as voice-activated assistants will become even more intuitive, proactively anticipating needs. Imagine a home that automatically prepares a revitalising morning routine with soothing music, optimal lighting, and a perfectly brewed cup of coffee. Security will also be paramount, with advanced surveillance systems integrated with AI and facial recognition technology to ensure the utmost safety and privacy.
In 2025, we can expect to see a continued convergence of technology and luxury, creating residences that are not merely places to live, but personalized havens of comfort, convenience, and unparalleled experiences.
The demand for staff who are ready and eager to travel with clients is definitely on the rise this year with many clients owning multiple properties around the world and requiring staff willing to travel with them.
At Exclusive Household Cavalry, we have seen these trends rise steadily over the last couple of years and we expect this to become even more prevalent in 2025.
