Maximalism

Maximalism in interior design is basically the “more is more” approach — the opposite of minimalism. It’s all about bold expression, rich layers, and visual abundance, but done intentionally, not chaotically.

 Key Features of Maximalist Design

1.  Bold Colors: Think jewel tones, deep navy, emerald green, hot pink — often used in combination.

2.  Layered Patterns: Florals, stripes, animal prints, geometric shapes — all living together harmoniously.

3.  Eclectic Mixes: Vintage meets modern, boho meets glam. It’s a mix of styles that somehow works.

4.  Lots of Decor: Artwork, books, plants, sculptures — filling up wall space and shelves with curated collections.

5.  Personal Touch: Spaces often feel like a reflection of the person living there. Sentimental items are part of the aesthetic.

   
   

 🎨 Maximalism Isn’t Messy

Even though it looks busy, it’s intentional. Maximalist spaces are curated — every object usually has a purpose, a story, or an emotional connection.

 📈 Why It’s Trending

People are gravitating toward maximalism as a response to the sterile feel of minimalist trends. It celebrates personality, creativity, and nostalgia — and in a world full of beige, maximalism says, “Let’s go wild.”
