Purism stands for clarity. Whether clear lines, clear room arrangement, colors or room contents - this style of furnishing puts the room in focus and ensures stylish elegance. What this means for your interior, we reveal in the next four points.

Even in Roman times, the philosophical attitude was based on simplicity and the reduction of all excess. In Asia - especially in Japan - there is a similar way of life called Wabi Sabi, which recognizes beauty in imperfection, is content with simple things, appreciates them, enjoys them, and accepts transience. This attitude is again reaching many people who want to move from abundance to purism. The interior design style is by no means uncomfortable or boring. On the contrary - it provides more well-being and relaxation, as known from wellness rooms. So, anyone who wants to calm their eyes, senses, and psyche should live minimally.

Classic shapes ensure a timeless interior. With simple, unobtrusive pieces of furniture, this timelessness is preserved for a long time because the value is placed on something almost everlasting.

Not only for the entire interior, but also for the decoration, less is more. With a strict selection of special things, you can't go wrong with the purist interior. Those who like to decorate can change the decoration more often instead of adding new ones.

To set up a room in a purist way, you should pay attention to a well-thought-out placement of the furniture in the room to give the objects in the respective room the right effect. If this is not the case, the furnishings appear unfinished instead of purist. To prevent this from happening, we have put together a few tips for you.

If you have an open, liberal, and bright apartment, this is particularly advantageous for a purist furnishing. The pure space is the focus here.With the right pieces of furniture, materials, colors, and a well-thought-out concept, you can achieve the interior design style in any apartment.

As a general rule: everything is possible, but only subtly and in moderation. You have the option to combine white with a few accents. Dark tones are also allowed. Other colors are also suitable for purism, provided they are not too bright and do not overwhelm the senses. These include, in addition to white and black, anthracite, beige, gray, caramel tones, or aubergine. Make sure that your pieces of furniture and other items are monochrome. However, subtle color combinations are also possible.

In the purist style of furnishing, it's all about the essentials. This includes little to no decoration. So, if you absolutely cannot do without decor, strategically hung pictures, a few candle holders or indoor plants can give the room a pleasant flair. To always stay on the right track, remember: Less is more.

Once the interior has been successfully reduced, the focus is particularly on the furniture. Therefore, good quality is required here with simple design and clear shapes. You can achieve this with a coffee table that can have a black metal frame and an oak wood top.This looks high-quality and can be perfectly combined with other furnishings due to its straightforward design.

To round off the living concept in all areas, the materials and lighting must be right. Various materials are suitable for this. On the one hand, wood, which gives a lively warmth, and noble materials such as chrome steel, metal, stone or glass. With silk, cotton, cashmere and linen, a simple interior can be given structure and depth and at the same time create tension. Indirect light provides even more purism. Individual floor lamps can be perfectly combined with it.

You now know the rules of the game when it comes to purist furnishing. But the actual implementation can be a bit overwhelming, especially if you have not been able to part with things so far. We have the ultimate guide for you on how to proceed:

One thing at a time, as they say. Before you tackle the whole apartment, start by emptying just one room.Say goodbye in peace to the things you no longer need.

To create order, store everything where it belongs. Then, for example, the hand cream can go back to the bathroom or the book back to the shelf. Once everything is in its place, look again and search for things you can do without. It's best to first remove them from the room, you can decide what exactly happens to them later.

Think about how you want to design the room. How can you best place the furniture? Are there any pieces of furniture that you no longer need.

Once you have decided on a version, try it out first. During the day, you can pay attention to the incidence of light and adjust the lighting in the evening. After trying it out, you will know exactly what needs to be changed to achieve the optimal positioning.

Now you can decide on a color combination. Basic colors like white and black are just as suitable for a purist interior style as warm colors, which consist of wood tones or beige. Red is great for an Asian touch.For those who prefer something a bit more subdued, you can opt for Japandi.

If the colors alone seem a bit monotonous to you, geometric shapes such as stripes or dots can be used as patterns. These, like in purism, have an order. But here too, one must be careful not to apply too many patterns. To stay on the safe side, you can combine a few patterns with solid color areas.

To round off the furnishing, you can resort to decorations. In purism, larger but fewer decorative pieces are more suitable.
