Maximalist interior design embraces an abundance of elements, patterns, colours, and textures, a departure from the simplicity of minimalist design.
This bold and expressive style combines various patterns, textures, and colours to craft a visually rich and eclectic space, with carpet playing a major role in the overall aesthetic of a room.
In maximalist spaces, vibrant and contrasting colours dominate, creating a lively atmosphere. The use of diverse patterns, from florals to geometric shapes, extends to wallpapers, upholstery, carpets, rugs, and textiles. Feltex’s luxurious wool carpet adds a layer of texture & style while acting as a 5th wall in an interior space. Our Artisan range is one of our classic maximalist favourites, creating deliberately impactful and memorable spaces.
Furnishings in maximalist interiors are often eclectic, drawing from different styles and time periods for a layered look. Also, art and decor play a significant role, with large statement pieces contributing to the overall visual impact. Luxurious fabrics like velvet and silk add opulence and comfort. Layered accessories, including throw pillows and rugs, create a lush and inviting ambience, steering clear of minimalism in favour of an extravagant aesthetic.
Bold furniture designs with intricate details and unique shapes are common in maximalist interiors. Global influences from various cultures contribute to an eclectic feel, and statement lighting fixtures often serve as focal points. Maximalist spaces are personalized reflections of inhabitants’ tastes, showcasing collections of art, books, and cherished items.
Despite the potential for chaos, maximalist design deliberately combines elements to create a visually stimulating and expressive environment. It encourages creativity and self-expression, allowing individuals to embrace their unique preferences and tastes.
