Comforting colour palettes
As with any decor, the quiet luxury style is very much dependent on getting the right colour palette. Similar to most Scandinavian style schemes, the accent colours in this trend are often inspired by nature so they feel more natural and in-keeping with a quieter setting.

SPACIOUS SETTINGS
Another key rule is to not overcrowd the space. It’s crucial that the room you’re decorating feels spacious and not empty. Avoid introducing too much clutter, and instead choose a less-is-more approach. If you’re one to opt for minimal styling, then this will work in your favour.

BRing in the light
Elegant fixutres such as luminaries are another important aspect of the quiet luxury aesthetic. Whilst it’s best not to choose over-the-top designs, it can be an area that you can incorporate a bit more thought into. It’s important to pick designs that give the feel of luxury without dominating the room. Simple lamps work best, but you can also look to include elements of metallics, such as brass and gold, for added interest.

COMFORT & LONGEVITY
Quality furniture and materials are integral to the quiet luxury trend, but this doesn't mean choosing pieces that aren't practical. Whilst a beautiful chair or sofa might look lovely in your home, to ensure it can stand the test of time, it also needs to serve a purpose and be both functional and comfortable. Whether its a space-saving sofa bed that offers two pieces for the price of one or a cosy corner couch for the whole family, invest in statement pieces that serve the needs and requirements of your household.
