With technology-led, efficient and modern bathrooms and kitchens, you can express your style in every corner of your home.
A decorating style that embraces the principle of less is more gives you space to enjoy life. Saving both money and time, minimalist décor is modern style at its most distilled. Yet translating this philosophy, which avoids getting lost in detail and advocates shedding excess, into an interior is not as easy as you might think. You need to keep the idea of simplifying in mind at every moment and in every situation. “Do I need this?” is a question to repeat with every item you pick up. The result, however, brings rewards. In a minimalist bathroom or kitchen, tasks are completed more quickly, the space stays uncluttered and you have time for personal hobbies, exercise or discovery. A palette that is easy on the eye, open areas free of accessories, straight lines and a simple arrangement define a minimalist bathroom or kitchen.
It is a scientific fact that bringing nature into the home has both physical and psychological benefits. By placing pots of edible plants in a sunny corner of the kitchen, you can grow your own aromatic greenery, such as mint, parsley or rosemary. If your bathroom receives light, a trailing plant cascading from a high shelf will transform its atmosphere immediately.
An inevitable part of modern life, technology is a source of help we turn to constantly. We love it for entertainment, for savings and, most often, for innovations that make tasks easier. Bathroom taps and shower systems made with new technology, along with kitchen appliances and small tools, are the most familiar examples. Yet some products also incorporate hidden technologies, including new-generation surface coverings, smart lighting systems and drawer mechanisms. Remember that the more advanced the technology, the more environmentally friendly, water- and energy-saving, hygienic, fast and easy to use it is.
Colour is the first detail we notice in a modern interior. It is impossible to give a multicoloured room with floral patterns on every wall a modern atmosphere. Calm tones and simple geometric patterns create this impression more readily. If you choose a dark palette, avoid making the entire room dark: select light-coloured furniture with darker wall coverings, or do the reverse. With a light palette, earth, desert and sand tones can bring a modern style to your bathroom and kitchen.
