The term minimalism was first introduced in the mid sixties when it was used primarily to describe the striped – down sculptures of artists such as Robert Morris, Dan Flavin and Donald Judd. Today, however, the term is used to describe everything from fashion and music to design and architecture.

Minimalist architects works of Luis Barragan, Claudio Silvestrin, and Tadao Ando explore the fundamentals of space, light and materials while avoiding stylistic mannerisms. Minimalism is still a popular interior design style however recent trends have seen it become more liveable and softer, rather than the cold, stark look of the past. The fundamental principles of minimalism remain – clean lines, hard surfaces and low furniture but we’re now seeing softer edges, more colours, texture and the introduction of natural fibres. We feature here a selection of new minimalist inspired interior designs which shows you how to decorate your interior in a similar fashion.
