I love clean, streamlined design as much as anyone. But as I see more maximalist living room design ideas like the ones I’ll be sharing today, I’m getting more and more convinced to try out this re-emerging trend! At the same time, I know maximalist living room design is more than just filling a space with anything and everything under the sun. Just like any other style, maximalist living room design needs a clear direction and a concept behind everything. But don’t worry, because I can help you decide on a concept! Just keep scrolling to see how you can try this style at home.
1. Colorful Maximalist Living Room Design
Some people are huge fans of vibrant color. If you’re one of those people, why not take it a step further? Fill your living room with a variety of different colors! If you want to incorporate prints, take your cues from this space which has prints in similar colors—blue, green, and red.
2. Animal Prints Everywhere
The great thing about maximalist living room design is how you can really go extravagant with your choices. This is the time to bring out the animal print and exotic decor—and don’t hold back! For maximum impact, pair animal prints with equally bold colors like red and gold.
3. Eclectic Maximalist Living Room Design
Eclectic design and maximalist living room design go together like peanut butter and jelly. Eclectic design is when different styles come together, so take it one step further and really fill your space with a variety of different design aesthetics.
4. Bright Maximalist Living Room Design
Who says maximalist living room design has to be filled with dark colors? You can also go bright with white walls and clean white furniture, then fill your walls with bright paintings and stuff your sofa with different throw pillows!
5. Retro Maximalist Living Room Design
Maximalist living room design can also work like this: pick your favorite design style, then go bold and over-the-top with it! This retro space is definitely a sight for the eyes with different colors, patterns, and paintings everywhere.
6. Mixed Prints
One of the simplest way to achieve a maximalist living room design: mix your prints! You don’t have to stick to the usual stripes or dots either, look for unique prints to show off your personality.
7. Bohemian Maximalist Living Room Design
Bohemian pieces also work very well with a maximalist design. Even when there’s so much going on in a room (like the one above!), it still looks laid-back and cool.
8. Balanced Design
Again, just because you’re making things bigger and bolder, doesn’t mean you don’t have rules to follow! Keep a balance in your maximalist space by matching your furniture and making sure your wall decor is proportional.
9. Texture and Color Overload
When I first saw this photo, I didn’t know where to look first! This has got to be the epitome of maximalist living room design. It isn’t just in your furniture choices or decor, adapting a maximalist design has to affect everything in your space. Go big, or go home!
10. Detailed Maximalist Living Room Design
Even if a maximalist design is about more of everything, I think it’s still all about the details. Just take this stunning living room. It’s filled to the brim with prints, colors, and textures—even on the ceilings! Remember, leave no stone unturned with your maximalist living room design.
