Dare to be exuberant: maximalism in your decor or the art of staging your personal cabinet of curiosities
Dare to be exuberant: maximalism in your decor or the art of staging your personal cabinet of curiosities. This trend draws inspiration from the antique cabinets of curiosities, which allowed glimpses into the world’s diversity.
A quick glance at #maximalist reveals decor that boldly combines styles, textures, and eras. It’s a universe where object accumulation becomes the ultimate expression of personality, where mix & match reigns supreme, and where the generosity of decor unveils an art of hospitality
The Accumulation of Objects as the Signature of a Curious Identity
The heart of maximalism lies in the notion that each object tells a story. Much like the cabinets of curiosities from days of yore, overflowing shelves and walls adorned with artifacts become reflections of our passions and journeys.
Beyond mere decoration, it becomes a true testament to our curiosity and uniqueness.
L'agencement de ces éléments est minutieusement pensé, créant ainsi une composition visuelle riche en textures, en couleurs et en émotions.
Nothing is left to chance in this creative endeavor, where every nook of the space is inhabited by a story to tell. It’s a resurgence of globes, secret boxes, and astonishing displays. The presentation of the treasure is just as crucial as the treasure itself.
Mix & Match as the Signature of Bold Creativity
The mix & match consists in juxtaposing styles, patterns, textures and eras in an unexpected and harmonious way.
It is an expression of creative freedom that defies conventions and encourages exploration..
In a cabinet of personal curiosities, the mix & match takes on its full meaning.
Heterogeneous objects are intertwined to form a captivating visual symphony.
A facets globe rubs shoulders with an old tapestry of cushions dialogues with "girly" references.
This diversity of objects and styles creates an atmosphere rich in contrasts and surprises, like the cabinets of curiosities of yesteryear.
I like this idea of flirting with the kitsch. It is the dosage and the personal references that will give all the meaning to the mixtures. Each person will have their definition of their kitsch, their mixtures according to their age their origins, their history ...
The mix & match goes beyond simple decoration. It is a way of thinking and living that encourages exploration and discovery. It is an invitation to go out of the beaten track, to dare the unexpected. It is also an affirmation of its individuality and its singularity, because each composition reflects the unique tastes and interests of its owner.
The mix & match is an affirmation of beauty in imperfection, of harmony in contrast. It is an ode to curiosity and wonder, which reminds us that true wealth lies in the diversity and complexity of the world around us.
See the trends of Elisabeth Leriche at the last M&O fair of Jan 24 where the mix & match was a common thread of these sets
The generosity of a set as a signature of an art of receiving
Contrary to what one might think, maximalism does not create a suffocating or oppressive atmosphere. On the contrary, it invites you to feel good and welcomed in space. The daring mixtures of colors and patterns, various textures and heterogeneous objects bring a human and warm dimension to decoration. Each piece seems to tell a story, thus creating a living and friendly atmosphere where it is good to meet.
Some restaurants surf on this atmosphere where too much is the friend of well-being.

Maximalism is a generous concept,
who invites to share and exchange. Visitors of a space decorated in this style are often impressed by the richness and diversity of the objects found there. Each element is an invitation to discovery, discussion and sharing memories. I find that maximalism creates warm and friendly atmospheres where everyone immediately feels welcome and in their place.
Each decoration element contributes to creating an atmosphere conducive to conviviality and sharing, thus making maximalism much more than a simple decorative trend, but a true art of living.
By kissing maximalism,
We transform our spaces into personal curiosity cabinets, where the accumulation of objects and the mix & match reflect our curious identity and our daring creativity. Each element tells a unique story, inviting to explore our passions and our trips. In this generous and welcoming universe, let us dare to be unique and express our singularity. #DareToBeUnique
