Maximalism Makes a Comeback

After years of minimalist all-white interiors, 2023 is embracing more, more, more. Bold wallpaper, layered textiles, collected objects, rich color — maximalism is about self-expression and creating a home that feels personal and alive.

Curved and Organic Shapes

Goodbye harsh right angles — hello curves. Arched doorways, rounded sofas, circular dining tables, and organic-shaped mirrors are everywhere. These softer shapes create a sense of warmth and movement.

Color Drenching

Rather than an accent wall, color drenching means painting an entire room — walls, ceiling, trim, and sometimes even furniture — in the same tone. The effect is immersive, cozy, and surprisingly sophisticated.

Vintage and Antique Accents

A reaction against fast furniture, buyers are seeking out pieces with history. One-of-a-kind vintage finds add soul to a space and are more environmentally sustainable than buying new.

Limewash and Textured Walls

Flat paint is fading. Limewash paint creates an ancient, European-plaster effect that adds depth and texture. Combined with venetian plaster or concrete effects, textured walls add character that photos can barely capture.

Quiet Luxury

At the opposite end of maximalism, “quiet luxury” is about understated elegance: high-quality materials, neutral palettes, impeccable craftsmanship, and no visible logos or trends. Think cashmere, linen, aged brass, and natural stone. It’s the aesthetic of expensive things that don’t need to announce themselves.
