5 Simple Home Designs You’ll Fall in Love With
June 6, 2019
Embracing simplicity
Straying away from so-called “cookie-cutter” homes, people are seeking to leave their unique mark on their home’s design. As such, a key trend emerging is simple home design. Here are our five favourite simple modern home design ideas we’re certain you will love.
#1 Accessorising
Everything old is new again. Personalise every room in your home by curating quirky vintage accessories from your favourite historical period. Whether you choose 17th-century antiques, 80s entertainment memorabilia or anything in between, these items are a unique reflection of your personality.
#2 Create an aspirational space
Rather than create a “magazine cover” home, people are designing spaces which reflect how they want to feel. Whether it’s a “relaxed”, “energised”, “intimate” or “professional” environment, your home will help you feel how you want to feel.
This trend gives you the freedom to ignore pre-determined design rules, and populate your home with furniture, art and accessories reflecting who you are and want to be.
#3 Vintage lighting
Introducing a funky, retro vibe into your home can be as simple as installing some vintage light fixtures. From sconces, lanterns, pendants and chandeliers, vintage lighting is the ideal way to add your unique style to every room of your home. And, the best part is, this is the perfect weekend project for all the DIYers out there.
#4 Rich colour palette
Every few months, interior colour trends seem to change, and it can be exhausting to keep up with. If you’re fed up with constantly repainting your home to keep up, there’s a simple solution.
Simply choose a rich, earthy colour scheme for your home. These colours include warm greys, paired with rust, caramel, brown-blacks and more.
#5 Less is more
Homeowners are embracing the “less is more” aesthetic, especially in the bedroom. By simply opting for modern, minimalist finishing, you can create a relaxing sanctuary to retire to at the end of a busy day. Instead of a busy colour scheme, we recommend choosing a soothing, neutral palette, paired with soft fabrics and simple furnishings.
