Minimalist Design Elements
There is beauty in simplicity, but like any interior design style, there is also an element of skill required. This design style is not necessarily about spending less. It is about using quality fixtures without cluttering. A minimalist home not only has minimum furniture, but each piece is minimal in itself. Less is definitely more with this style.
Since there are fewer pieces in a minimalist style, choose lots of varying textures to bring an element of interest. Find a stand out piece of furniture and let it shine. Then build around it with lamps, plants and art.
When it comes to art, choose extra large pieces. One and done! Your art and a few other décor pieces carry the design load. Choose few furniture pieces, just the necessities in order to keep open, uncluttered spaces.
You can also use lighting as décor. Many light fixtures are works of art themselves. Since you are buying fewer pieces, you can splurge on really significant items.
Each item in a minimalist space should be given plenty of breathing room which means there is plenty of space around each item. Giving sufficient space around each item allows it to be truly appreciated on its own.
It is essential to have a striking focal point in a minimalist space too.
It is a design element that draws your eyes when you enter the room, and it should be the only piece you decorate around.
