What you will learn

The principles of interior design that create minimalistic and maximalistic style.

Master the art of curating and arranging objects within a space to create harmony and beauty, even in high density environments.

Grasp the concepts of 'grouping', 'families', and 'repetition' and their impact on spatial perception.

Understand the historical and cultural shifts in architectural styles, identifying how simplicity and complexity contribute to aesthetic appeal.

Learn how the shape and form of objects influence the overall complexity of a space and its emotional ambiance.

Acquire skills to strategically select and utilize colors to influence the simplicity or complexity of a design.

Develop the ability to balance minimalistic and maximalistic design elements to create personalized living spaces that reflect changing needs and desires.

Why take this course?

Redesign a room from your home to make it look more minimal, more maximal or the perfect blend of the two. In this class, you will learn the principles of interior design that contribute to the minimal or the maximal look and I will teach you simple steps you can take to achieve that look.

In this class, you will learn the following:

  1. Why styles do not matter: where you will learn how the architectural styles have shifted between simplicity and complexity

  2. How simplicity and complexity contribute to what we consider beautiful

  3. How to curate your objects to make a space look beautiful despite the high number of objects

  4. How “grouping”, “families”, and “repetition” contribute to how we perceive a space

  5. How the shape of objects can influence the complexity of a space and how we feel around it

  6. How to pick colours strategically to make a space look more simple or more complex

  7. How the arrangement of objects in the space can create a sense of simplicity or complexity

At their core, Minimalists and Maximalism are nothing other than extreme simplicity and extreme complexity. And with this class, I want to teach you the tools that create simplicity and complexity in interior design.

The focus of this class is to help you detach from generic styles and marketing campaigns and empower you to create environments that suit your personal needs and desires. Throughout your life, you will swing back and forth between simplicity and complexity. You might start out as a minimalist, but as your life and family will grow, you might turn into a maximalist, at some point, you might want to swing towards minimalism again to go one maximalist step forward. No matter what comes, I want you to feel empowered to go up or down on the spectrum of complexity with ease.

I also want you to treat minimalism and maximalism like a buffet. You can absolutely be a minimalist that is surrounded by vivid colours and art, and you can definitely be an environmentally conscious maximalist. It doesn’t have to be either-or; it can be both and.

This was a quick but informative primer on the differences between minimalism and maximalism and how to achieve a balance of the two. Great instructor -- she was very clear in her explanations and provided a lot of visual examples.

I designed one room I love after years of trial and error. I wanted to understand what was working for me and why so I could replicate it. I now have a better understanding of what appeals to me and why.

i feel i should be certified somehow with her “instructor” signature certifying it. She’s outstanding as an instructor and its amazing how the other sciences are used as her reference and influence to mold decisions when designing a room. seriously, i want a certified certificate from her.
