Minimaluxe: Doing More With Less
Hello Posh Tribe,
An increasingly popular design style is Minimaluxe. The word in English combines “minimalism” and “luxury”, which may seem strange at first glance, right?
In reality, this decoration trend is characterized by a clean and organized aesthetic that relies on high-quality materials and elements. This way, the environment can be warm and intimate.
Did you find it confusing? Follow the post to understand what minimaluxe is and how to adopt it in your home in simple ways that make all the difference!
What is Minimaluxe?
A lot has changed in recent years – we went through a pandemic that forced us to find space for activities and tasks that often wouldn’t be done at home.
This period helped us reflect on how our home (and the things in it) make us feel. Therefore, today many people can better see how the home is a sanctuary, an essential refuge – that place where we can just be, with peace, security and comfort.
And minimaluxe designs your home to make you feel these good sensations.
In general terms, this decoration trend focuses on organic and well-applied design that satisfies the senses. It’s a mix of minimalism and japandi style.
The idea is to welcome the natural, durable, comfortable: this is minimaluxe’s vision of luxury. It’s about having less, having more visual order, only what’s necessary (and quality necessary) – everything that brings physical and emotional comfort.
Are you looking for these feelings? It’s simple to apply minimaluxe to your home. See the key points of this decoration:
Appeal to What is Simple
Minimalism is the basis of minimaluxe, that is, it means reducing design elements in your environments. Of course, you don’t have to get rid of everything!
Be selective about what you keep and display, considering what truly promotes joy, calm, or another experience you want in your space.
Based on this, you select your decor to cultivate an organized environment where the things in it truly inspire you.
Furthermore, the minimalist style uses clean lines and a neutral color palette (white, gray, earthy tones and so on) to strengthen feelings of calm and relaxation. Either way, stick to the principle of getting rid of clutter and distractions.
Another important detail is to choose functional and aesthetically pleasing furniture, never overloading it with unnecessary accessories.
Quality Over Quantity
To value luxury, the idea of minimaluxe is that you only invest in high-quality materials. Think marble, brass and other items that can easily appear in sophisticated designs, only more discreet.
In this case, you can include them in details, such as door handles, lamps, table legs or slightly larger features, such as wall art. It’s a way to add elegance without exaggeration.
When it comes to furniture, avoid filling the living room or other space with too many low-quality pieces and invest in a few high-quality items that will stand the test of time.
Prioritize fluid organic shapes and curved lines – incorporate them in different possibilities. For example, use a round ceramic vase, circular tables, wavy headboards, etc.
Decorative Impact of What is Yours
Simplicity and quality are two requirements for minimaluxe, but how can you enhance your personality in this decoration?
The decor pieces you choose can add a little extra interest or a sense of place, whether it’s a piece of art, a statement lamp, or another object you love.
However, even one piece of furniture can be the focal point of a room – a sofa, a pair of armchairs, kitchen stools. The furniture needs to fit in with the general tone of your home’s design, don’t forget!
Vibes with Textures and Lighting
Lastly, create a tactile space, that is, the use of textures, especially natural materials to add warmth and depth to rooms, associated with neutral color schemes.
Soft textures like linen and untreated wood tables elevate and ground your home.
Take advantage of natural lighting: the more, the better. Allow light in and keep the space open and flowing freely. On the windows, if you don’t want to abandon the curtains, change them to light fabrics. Add mirrors to spaces so they reflect light.
Remember that when incorporating Minimaluxe into your home, it’s important to strike a balance between minimalism and luxurious aesthetics. Make sure each piece in your space has a purpose and encourages a sense of peace by preventing pointless décor.
