Minimal style, even in 2020 ! This is how we inaugurate our mini guide, focused today on deco. Minimal style is the desire of many. But not everyone can separate the concept of minimal from that of extreme simplicity. They are not two sides of the same coin.
The Minimal in fact has its roots in the sixties. A real radical change, in a world full of colours. A reduction to geometrical shapes and chromatic coldness. A real research, to be carried out with criteria and following precise rules.
And although our age is completely dominated by colours, absence of defined shapes, extravagant combinations, the search for linearity is not lacking, even in interior decoration. So, if you too wish to return to a refined but at the same time revolutionary style, you just have to read the next lines.
We can then start with our new mini guide !
Before you understand what the dictates are to make your home adherent to a minimalist style, you must start with the basics. Where and how is this new aesthetic trend born ?
The term minimal was coined for the first time in 1965, in an article about the desire for a real change of direction. A minimal reduction, both on a pictorial and plastic level. And it is at this precise moment that the search for the essential is easily included in the home deco.
The minimal style, therefore, can have different facets. But how can it be applied concretely inside the domestic spaces ?
The main purpose to keep in mind is the following: balance, preserving the space as much as possible. We must therefore try to create spaces:
And after shaping the environment, let’s think about the shapes of our furniture !
As you could well understand, minimal is a response to consumerism. That is why everything that evokes the essentiality of both materials and forms.
What should furniture be like?
Without a doubt, look for harmonious lines, combined with light colours. Avoid filling yours with useless objects and furnishings. Rather insert objects to make the environment less oppressive but more welcoming. Yes to zen plants and gardens. No to excessive and extremely colourful decorations. Always recall nature both with colours and, above all, with materials. As always, wood is one of the most exploitable materials. But there are also alternative solutions (even artificial) that can give the idea of minimalism.
For the rest, let your imagination run wild, following these simple rules! A minimal style, even in 2020 !
