For many, minimalism has become a rule by which to live life. Spurned on by a raft of celebrities embracing the minimalist motto, people are shedding the unnecessary from their lives and loving it.
Popular for exploring clean lines and neutral color palettes, the minimalist approach to modern decor focuses on functionality and simplicity of design. Exemplifying the ‘less is more’ rule, minimalist design takes the best design principles and applies them seamlessly. By incorporating sleek, stylish, and functional monochromatic living room sets, you can elevate any room both practically and aesthetically, creating a space that is harmonious and calming.
Getting your home decor right can take time. Creating a stylish look that suits you is about more than finding pieces you love and trying to make them fit into your home. Bringing modern living room decor ideas to life can be tricky but not impossible.
To create a stylish home environment, consider contemporary furniture pieces that are simple in design and will age well in your home. Getting your foundations right is a good place to start. This includes your essential furnishings. For example, your foundation living room pieces may include a sofa and coffee table. Once these are selected, you can elevate your room by adding some color, pattern, and texture. Sparingly placing some wall art to complement your modern muted tones can be a great way to inject some originality into your space. To open up your space and add depth to your room, select a modern statement mirror. Abbyson has a fantastic range of wall mirrors to explore.
Gone are the days when decor and style centered around color coordination and matching pieces. Modern home decorating is about embracing your inner self and finding a way to reflect who you are in your surroundings.
For many, this includes blending the old with the new and paying homage to nostalgia while embracing the future.
Adding some vintage flair to an otherwise modern home decor will make your home feel your own. Finding the right balance is important. You don’t want to fill your home with vintage pieces so that you feel you’re living in a bygone era, but you also want to draw enough attention to your vintage decor so it doesn’t feel out of place in an ultra-modern setting. Here are some tips to help you get started:
When styling your living room it’s important to reflect on the available space you have and the proportions of your living room furniture. As the name suggests, traditionally, you spend a lot of time in your living room, so you want to ensure it’s comfortable, practical, and exudes your personal style.
Try not to create clutter and instead choose individual pieces that will each serve to elevate the room. You can experiment with a range of modern living room decor ideas before settling on what works best for you. A fail-safe is selecting modern furniture with sleek, clean lines. Choose nude hues and keep things simple with natural materials to create your perfect living room.
Your bedroom is your haven. It’s where you can close the door to the problems of the world and retreat into your own private space, free of negative energy and bad vibes. This makes creating a perfectly styled modern bedroom ultra important. No matter whether its clean lines you most admire or modern monochromatic neutral tones, Abbyson’s bedroom range of beds, night stands, dressers, and benches will inspire you.
Modern home decor encourages an open floor concept. These days it’s common for kitchens to merge into dining rooms and living spaces. Removing walls and using furniture to set boundaries and define spaces is becoming a popular design principle with open plan living allowing for larger areas in homes.
Abbyson’s range of modern dining tables and chairs promotes clean lines and simple designs. Selecting a monochromatic color scheme will allow you to experiment with accessories and statement pieces.
