Furniture:
The furniture selection balanced form and function with sculptural interest. The minimalist white quartz coffee table with acacia wood legs introduced natural texture while maintaining an elegant presence. The cream sofa, set on deep ash wood legs, invited comfort while keeping a sleek profile. The olive-green accent chair in a mid-century modern design complemented the bohemian elements, while keeping the overall aesthetic grounded in minimalism.
Lighting & Accessories:
Lighting played a crucial role in blending functionality with design. A ceiling fan with a sculptural and fluid design was added, providing soft, diffused light on dimmers while keeping the space comfortable during warm temperatures. Its contemporary style served both aesthetic and practical needs. An arched floor lamp in a brass finish stood next to one of the green accent chairs, contrasting beautifully with the natural abaca material, adding warmth and a subtle bohemian touch.
Window Treatments:
Light-filtering linen drapery, made from European flax in a natural shade with a soft pink undertone, framed the windows. These drapes softened the natural light while adding an organic, airy feel to the room.
Artwork & Decor:
To add personality to the walls without overwhelming the space, I chose metal wall décor that featured a fresh take on Picasso’s abstract faces in his signature cubist style. This piece injected artistic flair while keeping with the minimalist tone of the room.
A framed print by Gustav Klimt, featuring serene yellows and cool greens, became a focal point, tying together the earthy tones and enhancing the room's sense of depth and warmth. This deliberate layering of textures, colors, and cultural elements reflected the couple’s love of travel, while maintaining a calm and uncluttered atmosphere.
This design showcases how thoughtful material selection, strategic layering, and an understanding of both minimalist and bohemian aesthetics can create a cohesive and personalized living space. The result is a spacious, serene, and vibrant room—exactly what the clients envisioned, but couldn’t previously articulate.
