Strip it Back
/My personal style is simple, so I have always gravitated toward minimalist design. Paring things down to the basics and ditching the unnecessary can do wonders for your well-being, not to mention it looks super sophisticated and sleek. From monochromatic minimalism to laid-back luxury, this simple approach to interior design is one of my favorites.
This most basic principle of minimalism is about doing more with less and carefully selecting the items that work well and complement one another without the need for excessive decorative elements. Clear the clutter and ask your self what can be eliminated, most of us have unneeded things in our space, we need to focus on what needs to be there, in this case minimalism encourages purpose. The goal here is to have a sense of order, simplicity, calmness and restraint. Minimalism design often stems from these characteristics and concepts -refined lines, monochromatic colors, open light-filled spaces, simple detailing and uncomplicated cladding and wall finishes. It is important however to introduce some features to prevent your space becoming an overly sterile atmosphere. Natural elements like wood, metal and plants and a monochromatic scheme are common essential s in this design. They add color, texture and character to any room. It really is about enhancing the sense of space and embracing open surroundings.
