Staging Matters!
Contemporary decor trends are moving away from minimalism towards maximalism, but when it comes to home staging, finding a balance between the two is key. Minimalism is marked by clean lines, neutral colors, and sparseness. Maximalism is characterized by bold colors and whimsical decor. When staging a house you want buyers to be able to see themselves in the home, but that doesn’t mean a staged house must be devoid of personality. Here are some ways to find the balance between minimalism and maximalism in home staging.
5 Ways to Balance Maximalism and Minimalism in Home Staging
Mixing Maximalism and Minimalism in Decoration for Home Staging
While you don’t want to keep your family photos and favorite trophies out, a few travel souvenirs or pieces of striking artwork may do the trick to bring in a bit of maximalism decor.
Minimalist Style + Maximalist Details for Home Staging
Try an eye-catching wallpaper matched with some neutral pieces of furniture, or a room with neutral colors with one accent wall and a statement couch. With a balanced hand, maximalism can look whimsical and energetic, rather than eclectic and messy.
Mixing Textures in Maxi-Minimalist Home Staging
Fluffy blankets, patterned rugs, and stylish lamps can add to a cozy, maximalist styling. They also have the texture desired in a minimalist style.
Natural Light in Staging a Home to Sell
Centering your room around a window brings in wonderful natural light and gives the area a friendly and inviting feel.
Using Maximalist Colors in Home Staging
Swap more traditional colors like white and gray for a different natural tone, like a light brown or warm green.
