In decoration, why is minimalism said to be a symbol of extreme luxury? What do you think of this statement?
Why is minimalism = extreme luxury? Because the more simple and textured the design looks, the more complex craftsmanship and expensive materials are needed to support it.
1. Do designers have high aesthetic requirements?
Minimalism is not about the accumulation of materials, but about the reasonable combination of simple materials to create high-end effects. It is the most test of the designer’s skills. Nothing is simple
Anything less is crude, and the bigger the house, the more difficult it is to deal with. The characteristic of minimalist style is that less is more, using lines and high-quality materials to create an extremely simple overall visual sense. The minimalist style that looks grand and simple requires the support of a large area of space to achieve an overall transparent and ethereal space atmosphere. A highly transparent space will inevitably require demolition and modification, and demolition and modification itself will increase the cost. Microcement has good adhesion, wear resistance and durability, and its pressure resistance is 1.7 times that of ordinary cement. It has good texture and beautiful texture; it is a very popular decoration material now
and is often used in minimalist styles. In the design. It’s really simple, but it’s also really expensive.
The price of 1㎡ on the ground is 600 yuan+, everyone can figure it out.
2. High-quality simple wood veneer
High-quality wood veneer panels are also commonly used materials in the minimalist style. Compared with monotonous white walls, the price and design will be higher. Minimalist style rarely uses stone with a low-luxury effect on large areas, but in terms of details, such as countertops and a small part of the walls, marble, stone
materials, slate and other materials will be used to present a sense of quality. Floor-to-ceiling windows are definitely a favorite of many friends. After all, large floor-to-ceiling windows mean a lot of lighting, and the decorative effect and transparency effect are first-class
. Friends who live in high-rise buildings, large pieces of glass like this are hoisted upstairs using a crane. Let’s not talk about the price of the glass, just the installation fee, which is also a big expense.
3. The minimalist modeling process is complex
Materials are only part of the minimalist style. In comparison, the minimalist modeling process is a test of the level of the construction master. In short , not cheap. Friends who design without main lights must be familiar with it. Through the simple shape processing of the top surface, the suspended ceiling looks simple and elegant. But behind the minimalist design without a main light, there are extremely cumbersome wiring, which is not cheap. The simple overall shape, including the unification of the visible surface, is also the darling of minimalist design; compared with our common doors, Invisible doors require on-site handcrafting or customization, which greatly tests the skills of the construction master. Minimalism is not only about decoration and shape, but also about clean and tidy overall edges without any sloppiness; of course, the requirements for craftsmanship are also relatively high.
4. Invisible baseboards
The baseboards are an indispensable detail in home decoration. They can be used to transition the wall and the floor and hide the gaps at the junction. However, traditional
The baseboards are usually not very aesthetically pleasing and not minimalist enough. The invisible skirting line improves its aesthetics while retaining the function of the traditional skirting line. It is designed by inserting the skirting line into the interior of the wall through grooves in the wall, and the overall feeling is better. Stronger, simpler in shape, and of course more expensive. Commonly used colors in the minimalist style include black, white, gray, and wood. It is easy to be simple, but it is not easy to be colorful. It is also a test for designers to achieve a simple but not monotonous effect through different ratios of these colors. The cabinet door adopts vertical lines and is designed without handles, so that the cabinet can be used as a wall decoration; the effect that is seamless with the overall home also requires extremely exquisite craftsmanship to complete.
“Essential simplicity and luxury, simplicity without losing its elegance, luxury without showing its astringency”, this is what more and more people are pursuing now. It is not only a style,
< p>A kind of fashion, but also a spiritual guide and lifestyle. Starting from the essence of life, we use minimalist design to interpret the most essential luxury beauty.
Integration - embodying extreme luxury in minimalism
The minimalist space does not resist all shapes and elements, but pursues a highly condensed temperament. Use streamlines to build appropriate spatial dimensions, and use freely derived artistic techniques to outline an elegant melody in the space. It does not use space to build rhythm, nor does it make absolute configurations according to functional areas. It is more about finding the best balance point of the unity of opposites.
Daily maintenance is also a large expense.
Compared with the plane width of traditional door frames of 5 to 8 centimeters, the main frame of frameless doors is only about 1 centimeter, which brings a more slender visual effect and a simple and elegant aesthetic. It also blends in with the walls of the home. The integration of the interior and exterior is more advanced, and it can be regarded as a symbol of extreme luxury, whether from the overall visual design or the decoration cost. There are no stacks of stacks, and the lifestyle with the sofa and dining table as the centerpiece gradually extends freely outwards, and the light and shadow flow, full of philosophy of life. The high-end and extreme luxury of modern home life also begins here.
Deleting complexity and simplifying it reflects the pattern of living space. Similarly, with people's demand for refined living environments, the design without main lights, which has been widely used in recent years
, has also become an extremely popular design. Synonymous with Jane. "No main light design" means that there is no main light in the space, and local lighting design is carried out according to daily needs
It can meet various needs in the home scene and create a sense of home atmosphere. Since traditional home lighting mostly uses one big lamp to illuminate a space, and now the height of houses is generally low, if you choose a gorgeous big lamp, it will obviously illuminate the entire space.
It increases the sense of oppression. Such a flamboyant arrangement can be considered luxurious but definitely not extremely luxurious.
The lack of main lights not only maintains the linear shape, but also increases the sense of spaciousness of the space. High-end, simplicity, and practicality are all synonymous with mainless lights. Its low-key design is the pursuit of minimalism
But if you want to create an exquisite lighting atmosphere, you still need a lot of money. Compared with traditional home lighting, "masterless lamp design" is not only more difficult in construction, but also requires planning of drilling and circuit lines in advance. In terms of design, "masterless lamp design
p>
Design also needs to provide more complex personalized lighting matching according to different scenarios and lighting needs. Such complex construction and lighting design create a space with changing levels of light and shadow, creating an extremely luxurious living experience for minimalists. Therefore, minimalism on the surface does not mean minimalism behind it. This is why extreme luxury may be more synonymous with minimalism.
As the largest part of the home, the wall determines the overall style and tone of the home to a large extent. If the decoration layout is slightly unreasonable
it can easily damage the home. of wholeness and atmosphere. The design of frameless doors and main lights maximizes its utilization value,
presenting a visually open atmosphere, and the switches and sockets on the wall are also a part that cannot be ignored in the entire home aesthetics. , as a whole
