Let’s back up for a second before we get into these trending design terms…
The word “Neotenic” comes from the zoological term, “Neoteny,” meaning, “the retention of juvenile features in adult animals.” A couple examples are short chubby legs on dogs or tiny pointy ears on cats – the kind of things that are just too cute to handle. To put it in another perspective, think of babies and their big eyes or squishy, gotta-touch-me baby rolls. These features easily catch interest and trigger emotions, inviting a sense of playfulness, curiosity, and pure joy. You’ve probably experienced a few of these moments… the kind of moments where you just can’t help but touch or squeal at the sight of such cuteness.
So how does all of this fit into interior design?
