Minimalism is the New Resolution

Minimalist living room design

What is the first thought that comes to mind when you think about the living room? Space, parties, friends, relaxation or probably just lazing around while watching TV. We want homes that reflect our persona and a place that is cosy and comfortable. Most prefer to have minimal furniture that provides enough space that is cosy and comfortable regardless of the occasion. Minimalism means rooms that are spacious and contains furniture focusing on shape, colour, and texture.

Many interior decorators follow a minimalism and design rooms without dividing squares and visualize the space with minimal furniture and details. More people are switching to minimalistic designs as it emits a sense of calmness, and sleek. It may seem like an effortless task to create a minimalist living room design, but many things can go wrong.

Clear the clutter

What most people often forget to notice is the number of things lying or mounting up on the kitchen table or a dining table. Many things end up from our bag to our bed or sofa like keys, bills and even cell phones. Start by placing items in an assigned spot rather than just flipping them over at random spots. Invest in style storage that adds dimension and gives you enough space to store your stuff.

Go neutral

If you are planning to create a classic minimalistic interior, it’s best to opt for base or neutral colour. Colours that would give you and your home a clean, fresh look that inspires calmness. Minimalism does not mean a whitewashed wall that looks dull. You can add colours like earth-tone browns, blues, tans, and greens that are easy on the eyes and blend well with your interiors. Use different texture in a similar tone.

Quality over quantity is the saviour

This is the most challenging of all as your options are limited and you have to make the most of it. One has to carefully select each piece that would occupy the rooms and make the room look appealing at the same time. Choose a piece that is well made and built to last furniture that would belong in that space and withstand all your daily activities.

To create a minimalistic feel, take each step carefully and process the thought or picture your living room post all the changes. The purpose of minimalism is to create a space that is peaceful, calming and clutter-free where you and anybody who comes to your house would want to spend their time.
