I'm sorry but, I'd like to make a small correction as a Japanese. It's better to be translated "Making" to "すること" or just "する" because it is a gerund. So, it will be traslated like this.

暮らしをより楽にすること/暮らしをより楽にする
or
暮らしにゆとりを持たせること/暮らしにゆとりを持たせる

Hi cesur,
Thank you for your contribution!
Yes, it would depend on the context.
If we said
(I am/we are) making life easier (for myself, you, everyone, etc.)
i.e. as the present progressive
then the translation would be as I have done it

If we indeed take it as a gerund, as you suppose,
i.e. if
making life easier
=
to make life easier

then your translations are better!

Edgar,
here are the romanizations of what she wrote:
Kurashi o yori raku ni suru koto / Kurashi o yori raku ni suru
and
Kurashi ni yutari o motaseru koto / Kurashi ni yutari o motaseru
You may note she also prefers the Japanese word "kurashi" ("living" in the sense of setting up home in a certain place and residing there in certain ways) to my "nichi-jo seikatsu" ("living" in the sense of "ordinary everyday life" ). Given the context of this phrase, it may also be a better way to say it.
(There exists a variety of ways to say "life/living" in Japanese, depending on what aspects of such living we choose to highlight.)
Her second translation option also includes the phrase
"yutori o motaseru"
which means
"gives (your) life yutori"
and
"yutori" also is a very good Japanese word which includes many nuances such as
free time, financial well-being, physical well-being, relaxation, and so on.
(You could translate it literally as "looseness/non-constriction": I sometimes think of the feeling I have when I'm wearing my favorite, comfortable, baggy jeans! )

Anyway, so now you know why I love translating from and into Japanese: the translations almost always have to include concept-mapping (and "feeling-mapping" ) into the target language, because Japanese has such different ways of saying things compared to our occidental languages!

Hello, Mr.Ian
I've also understood how you love translating. I"m unable to explain so well as you can, especially in Inglish.

This text seemed to be like a caption, so I suggested that phrases as caption-like Japanese.

Thank you for your good help!
