Do you prefer a minimalist or maximalist approach to decorating? Why?
Ooo what a great question! I think I'm a minimalist but only because I live in a super small apartment and if it's too busy I get overwhelmed. I wonder what my style will be like when I someday live in a bigger space.
Maximalist, baby! More is more! Too much is just enough!
Maximalist, but I have to be careful not to overdo it in my very small house!
I so very much want to be a minimalist but I just have sooooo much stuff that I love and that I'm attached to. I can't throw it all away!!!!
I prefer minimalist as it makes it quicker to clean and keep tidy. I like to look at some maximalist designs, but I couldn’t live in one, it would just be too overwhelming.
1000% minimalist! I admire others' maximalist styles but I would get sensory overload if I were to live in it.
Maximalist all the way! It keeps things interesting and inspires me
I’m not a minimalist, per se, but I’m close. I like calm interiors and simple lines and styles. I can’t handle a lot of decor items or colours/patterns, it makes me anxious.
Never quite understood this dualism between being either a minimalist or a maximalist. Both are at the extreme ends of interior design and pretty sure most people are somewhere in the middle. Unless you have a lot of talent minimalist interiors just look too stark or under furnished and maximalism looks like you have just put everything in a canon and fired it into the room.
What a great question! I consider myself a minimalist, mainly because I live in a very small apartment, and too much clutter overwhelms me. I often wonder how my style might evolve when I eventually live in a larger space.
