A minimalist interior is all about finding the balance between having the bare, yet essential, elements without the room look and feeling empty or cold. Colour will have a huge impact in this. Finding that balance in minimalism is creating a space that is functional and comfortable for you and yet where nothing really stands out. Whites, neutral and pale shades of colours (to add that little bit of interest) are the way to go for this. Pick a few colours that work for you and add interest by layering these colours in different textures and shades. Nothing vivid or outrageous, but rather calm, neutral, bare. Layering whites with greys and adding a little natural wood for a warm touch can create a clean yet comfortable background for your minimalist look. In picture 4 (below) they added just a hint of pink for a little colour. Doesn’t take away from the rest of the room yet still adds that little bit of coziness. Below are a few inspirational pictures to have a look at. Enjoy! All images from Pinterest.com

Combining brown furniture is a case of finding the right balance. Pairing the furniture with light, off-white and such, colours can create a lovely light atmosphere. While combining it with darker shades of blue and green can evoke an amazing cozy feel. However I would stay away from combining it with beige, creams, yellows and such. Especially if the furniture is a quite dark brown this can enhance a ‘heavy’ feeling in the room, and can often make it look dated, tired and bland. I will show a few examples below of different combinations for inspiration. Paired with light walls: Paired with dark walls: Paired with beige, creams, browns: Try to combine the furniture with colour, whether that is in the walls or perhaps a colourful rug. Brown does best when paired with different colours like greens, blues and grey’s. All images from Pinterest.com
