Purism

BAR STOOL BARNI | METALLBUDE

Purism stands for clarity. Whether clear lines, clear room organization, colors or room content - this furnishing style puts the focus on the room and ensures stylish elegance. In the next four points, we reveal what this means for your facility.

Even in Roman times, the basic philosophical attitude was simplicity and the reduction of all excess. In Asia - especially in Japan - there is a similar way of living with Wabi Sabi, recognizing beauty in imperfection, being content with simple things, appreciating them, enjoying them, and accepting transience. This attitude reaches many people who want to get out of the overflow and into the puristic. This style of living is by no means uncomfortable or boring. On the contrary, it offers the kind of well-being and relaxation you find in wellness rooms. So if you want to soothe your eyes, your senses and your psyche, you should live minimalist.

Classic shapes ensure timeless furnishings. This timelessness is preserved for a long time with simple, unobtrusive pieces of furniture, because the value is placed on something almost imperishable.

The following applies not only to the entire furnishing, but also to the decoration: less is more. With a strict selection of special things, you can no longer go wrong with the puristic furnishing. If you like to decorate, you can change the decoration more often instead of adding new ones.

In order to furnish a room puristically, you should pay attention to a well thought-out placement of the furniture in the room in order to give the objects in the respective room the right effect. If this is not the case, the facility appears unfinished instead of puristic. To prevent this from happening to you, we have put together a few tips for you.

If you have an open, spacious and bright apartment, this is particularly advantageous for a puristic interior. The pure space is in the foreground here. With the right pieces of furniture, materials, colors and a well thought-out concept, you can create the furnishing style in every apartment.

Basically, anything is possible, but only in moderation. You can combine white with a few accents. Dark tones are also allowed. Other colors can also be considered for purism, as long as they are not too garish and do not overwhelm the stimuli. In addition to white and black, these include charcoal, beige, gray, caramel tones or aubergine. Make sure your furniture and other items are monochromatic. Subtle color combinations are also possible.

The purist style is about the essentials. This includes little or no decoration. However, if you absolutely cannot do without decoration, accenting pictures, a few candlesticks or houseplants can give the room a pleasant flair. To stay on the right track, less is more.

Once the interior has been successfully reduced, the focus shifts to the furniture. That's why you need good quality with a simple design and clear shapes. This can be achieved with a coffee table with a black metal frame and an oak top. This looks high quality and can be combined with other furniture thanks to the straight design.

To complete the living concept in all areas, the materials and lighting must be right. A variety of materials are suitable for this purpose. On the one hand, there is wood, which provides vivid warmth, and precious materials such as chrome steel, metal, stone or glass. Silk, cotton, cashmere and linen can be used to add structure and depth to a simple interior while creating excitement. Indirect light adds even more purism. Individual floor lamps can be combined perfectly.

Now you know the rules of the game when it comes to purist decorating. But the actual implementation can be a bit overwhelming, especially if you have never been able to let go of things before. We have the ultimate guide to help you get started:

One at a time, as the saying goes. Before you tackle the whole house, start by emptying just one room. Say goodbye to the things you no longer need.

To create order, put everything back where it belongs. For example, you can put the hand cream back in the bathroom or the book back on the shelf. Once everything is in its place, take another look and see what you can do without. It's best to get them out of the room first, and then decide what to do with them.

Think about how you want to decorate the room. What is the best way to arrange the furniture? Is there any furniture you no longer need?

Once you have decided on a version, try it out first. During the day, you can observe the light and adjust the lighting in the evening. After trying, you will know exactly what needs to be changed to get the optimal positioning.

Now you can choose a color combination. Basic colors like white and black work well for a purist style, as do warm colors like wood tones or beige. Red is great for an Asian touch. If you want something a little less exciting, you can go for Japandi.

If the colors alone are a little too monotonous, geometric shapes like stripes or dots can be used as patterns. These have an order, just as in Purism. But again, be careful not to use too many patterns. To be on the safe side, you can combine a few patterns with solid surfaces.

To round out the setup, you can use decorations. In purism, large but few decorative pieces are more appropriate.
