2. Life- Focus on what’s really important
If you’re really serious about creating a simpler, minimal home and life, you would need to focus on “what’s really important in your life.” Clearing the clutter on your furniture surfaces does not ingrain minimalist in you unless you make it to practices. One would need to practice through the use of personal values to guide your decorating decisions. Disposing of the redundant and create room for your eyes. Focus on your goals and remove distress.

3. Home- Go for a neutral base colour

Editors Description: By using a series of relative close tones or neutral hues of the base colour, it would help to establish a sense of serenity within the interior. For example, LaCividina’s Guest Sofa’s stone grey tone helps to establish a relative close hue of the base colour, white. Hence, the combination of the two hues further strengthen the urbanity and quietude in the portrayal of the minimalist interior.
When creating a classic minimalistic interior, picking the right base colour is definitely essential. Using different neutral hues such as white, stone grey, ash grey and every tone in between. Using relative close hues of the base colour would establish a clean and fresh look which inspires a sense of calmness in the style of sophistication.
Thus, try to always stick to neutral hues such as the earth-tone browns, blues, tans, and greens would be easier for the eyes to ensure calm surrounding is set for the home.
4. Life- Create a space that nurtures, revives and restores
By using neutral based colours for your home, it would further help to establish a space which allows your eyes to be free from the cluttered and loud colours as similar neutral tones create a sense of calmness in you. Thus, allowing you to enjoy your space as you can rest, relax and restore your body peacefully. After all, homes are for the living.
