Before we proceed, we need to establish what maximalism is all about. A lot may get confused on what it truly is. Maximalism is something more than putting a lot of textures, colors, and pieces together. Contrary to popular belief, designing using a maximalist approach takes a lot of planning and coordination.
While Minimalism has become popular over the years, many people are looking into the new style of maximalism. It is basically the opposite of minimalism—white walls or muted color pallets, minimal home decors, and simple designs. With the maximalist approach, the grander is better. Think bigger and brighter items, textured home decors, various patterns, bold pallets, and a wide array of styles. Imagine coordinating not just one, but all of these together to pull off something that is aesthetically pleasing and not just hoarding or stuffing them altogether.
Now, when you incorporate maximalism in your home and choose the items to put in your cart, remember to take note of the following characteristics:
A good start for this is choosing a corner to decorate and adding a few accessories that have bold colors, patterns or texture. For example, let’s focus first on the living room as in any house, it is intended to be the room where you receive your guests. Leave them a striking impression by using textured throw pillow cases with bold colors that complement each other. Layer this by placing a living room linen on top.
Next, on your modern side table, place some artificial plants and home decors like AllHome’s ceramic balls. You can even incorporate a table lamp, but be careful to not overdo it by making sure that the pieces match aesthetically. If you feel like upgrading your wall to make it more bold, you can repaint it or use a wallpaper to add some life to it. As for the floor, add a faux fur rug under a leather sofa set to make it less boring.
While at it, get yourself a shelf and display some decorative vases. Some golden home decors will look good with your favorite trinkets and books. Visualize how you want to showcase your most treasured ornaments. You can even place some of these on top of a patterned table runner that hangs over the shelf.
The kitchen must be the next most visited room in the house. It could be the most filled as well since you’d be expecting appliances, kitchenware, and food items everywhere. If you are not careful enough, incorporating maximalism to your kitchen could make it look cluttered so organizing your kitchen with functional buffet cabinets is a good first move.
Second, let us bring in some life to your dining table set. Why not replace your regular chairs with different dining table chairs? It’s all about being able to mix two different things, but make them coordinated in a way. Add in some scented candles in the middle and a few artificial plants for added home decor. If you want to give the kitchen more characteristic, change the overhead light fixture with drop ceiling lights.
Despite being the room to be less visited by guests, the bedroom might just be the most exciting to rearrange. It is, after all, the room that gives the most zen to everyone as this is where you rest and sleep. So, give yourself ample time in decorating your room. Like in the living room, use a textured pillow case and use *printed sheets for the bed cover. Use a *fur or animal printed carpet to accentuate it even more.
Next, get to your bedroom side table and make sure you put in a table lamp and stack some books for added accent. Add in some table home decor for more character. On your wall, hang in a few wall decors and a wall mirror. You can even use wallpaper to give it the elevation it needs. Make sure to arrange them in an organized manner that creates lines for added style.
What’s a room with character if you will not replace your lights with a ceiling light. In addition, replace your old curtains with bold and patterned window curtains for more life. Lastly, if you still have some space left, throw in an accent chair where you can relax while reading your book. Place another living room linen on top just to give it a final touch.
These are just a few things you can do to redecorate your home and bring out the maximalist in you and all of which are available in the AllHome online store. This quarantine, give yourself a break and a breather by redecorating your house and bring the maximalist in you to it. It’s a fun way of challenging yourself and getting creative without having to cost yourself so much.
