Walls and Color
Of course, white has got to be the ultimate color for any self-respecting minimalist scheme.
Only choose one color, or color group, for your accent color. Furniture
Choose something simple and classy for your minimalist interior design look.
Plain, modern-looking furniture is ideal - in natural wood (especially dark wood), dark leather, white or bright colors, or chrome, glass, mirror and stainless steel.
Floors and Windows
Less is more with a minimalist style.
Accessories
Naturally, accessories are not a major part of a modern minimalist look. By all means clear out the clutter, and have a god sort out, but remember that your minimalist interior design look does need a few, well-chosen, carefully positioned accessories, to complete the look, and make your house into a home.
Maintaining a successful minimalist interior design scheme will take a little more work on your part.
Minimalism
Minimalist interior design came about as a direct result of the Minimalist art movement which first surfaced in the 1950s in New York and dominated the art world through the 1950s and 1960s. Minimalist art is self-contained art; external references and emotion are avoided. Interior designers who work with minimalism tend to broadly follow this ideal. Minimalist interiors are designed to facilitate a sense of calm and peace. The minimalist interior designer uses light to define the forms and the spaces where other designers would use materials and finishes.
A committed minimalist will not be happy until every space serves at least two distinct functions.
Energy Efficiency
If a designer meets these three objectives, the design produced would undoubtedly be a minimalist one.
Of course many will slap a coat of white paint on the walls, rip some carpets up, and put a few openings in walls and call it a minimalist design, but for a design to be truly minimalist a bottom-up approach is needed.
