Minimalist Decor Charm: Less Is More

The minimalist movement is staying on top of trends. It is far more than just a home decorating theme. It’s a global way of life, when at the utmost value is in a simple life, owning just what you need, keeping life uncluttered and generating less waste with the due honor to nature. The style embraces various specific ‘narrow’ flairs like Scandinavian minimalist, modern and industrial minimal style, Japandi and Scandinese.

Minimalism trend hallmarks are reflected in the style, furniture design, and decor of the space. It suits well to any of the rooms of the house – from bedrooms to living room layouts, and dining rooms as well. Rules are simple here. The key is to keep furniture as less embellished as possible. The palette should be limited to just one or two soft colors – white, black, and gray.

Sometimes the hues of light wood are common, and neutrals as well. Keep your room as spacious as possible, the surfaces of furniture uncluttered and mostly bare. To cut it short, it is best summed up by the “less is more” philosophy. Still, you should use a few suitably matched accessories and spread them throughout the room.

To keep your home not too plain and not too boring in this style, follow these tips from the FurnitureCart team. Staying minimalist in your living space is far from being dull, as long as you know how to spruce your place up with the right colors and decor.

1) Less clutter is gained by means of furnishing the house not only with items aesthetically pleasing to the eyes but also strategically functional.
2) You can always play around with texture to give it a cozier and more inviting look (opt for good faux fur rugs, crocheted blankets, interesting throw pillows in style).
3) Don’t be afraid to add one more color to black-and-white main scheme, it should not be a bright splash, but still, deep colors like emerald, ink blue, pale yellows, and oranges merge the best in the style.
4) Liven up the room with plants and greenery.
5) Add minimalist floating wall shelves that can work both as a decor item and a storage piece. These ultimate flexible furnishings go great in any room of the house.
