Home Interior Design

Minimalism can be defined as a trend in design and architecture where the exterior and interior of a building are planned in such a manner that there is a feel of open vast spaces without any clutter. The designs exude expansiveness and harmony. Most minimalist designs are inspired by Japanese classic designs. Modern designers incorporate minimalism into their designs to make the most of the limited space available in modern homes.

Today’s homes come with space at a premium and hence, minimalist designs for modern homes can help create a balance between form and functionality of interior design elements.

The form and structure can be broken down to the basic elements and space is used in the most efficient way possible. This gives the home a very comfortable and inviting feel. Less is more is the motto when minimalist designs are created. Every element is designed in such a manner that it is functional as well as visually appealing. Open floor plan without many walls is the basic feature in minimalist design. (more…)

Valentine Fantasy. One of my favorite Romantic-Themed Bedrooms involves a canopy bed and rose petals. Canopy beds are very exotic and romantic because of the flowy drapes that hang on the sides of the bed. Unfortunately, canopy beds can be pretty expensive but you can create the illusion of a canopy bed with a few pieces of hardware and it will not cause a fortune. It is quite simple, you will need 4 hooks and 4 pieces of either curtain rings, metal rings, wooden hoops, towel rings or even wire. Install the 4 hooks on each end of the ceiling where you would like the fabric to hang. (more…)
