MAXIMALISM

By now, we’ve all had just about enough of the limitations that come with the heavily trending design style minimalism over the past decade. Call it a refusal to the challenging plainness it brings to a home or an acceptance of the more exuberant furnishings and accessories that have been popular of late, as it was only a matter of time before we saw a major shift in the complete opposite direction. And with more and more clients continuing to follow suit, it makes all the more sense when looking to create a rich and unique space.

When looking to bring in transitional and eclectic design styles into your home, a maximal spirit will afford you so much more freedom when considering interesting decorative objects that anything but standard and streamlined in appeal. With maximalism, you’ll have much more freedom to follow your instinct which in turn, will make the design process so much easier. The key to getting warm maximalism right is to keep a well-judged edit and visual consistency so your efforts don’t appear as heavy-handed or over stimulating. Instead, stick to no more than three contrasting colors, patterns, and finishes for a more timeless take on maximalism that won’t feel dated or tiring anytime soon.

While we haven’t seen stamped tin panels in vogue for decades and as they tend to evoke a vintage-inspired feel, tin panels are one of the easiest and least expensive ways to add brilliant texture in any room in your home.

And while a tin ceiling always looks ultra-glamorous, tin panels also make for seriously chic backsplash ideas. Best of all, you can easily find affordable pre-cut tin panels at a local hardware store or online that you can install yourself without effecting the condition of the walls behind too drastically.

CUT OUT THE COUCH

A stylish settee will add a distinctively sophisticated air to your living room design, while a group of comfortable chairs set in a grouping will help your living room interior design feel more inviting and intimate. Have your chairs centered around a table to bring everything together, while a bench like the one pictured above is perfect for relaxing after a hard day.
