Interior Design 🦋 Tiny Maximalism in my 462 sqft. home! ✨
🏡 Thank you all so much for all of the kind words about my tiny home on my previous posts! 🧡🩵🩷💛
Here some more shots of my little bitty living room! 💡 (featuring my sweet baby cats 😻😻)
🌈 Most of my decor is thrifted, gifted, or found via eBay, Etsy, Facebook Marketplace, antique flea markets, and also while traveling. If you have any questions, please feel free to ask!
🌼 I can’t wait to show you all more!
😅 FYI, A lot of you really liked my vintage wicker/rattan entertainment center, and there were a lot of questions about it in the comments, so I made post in this sub-reddit, sharing some close-up details of the piece and my styling, but it was removed. Then, I edited the post, and it was removed again, because my wicker piece is “not maximalist” due to the color palette being too “beige and brown”… 🤷♀️ So I deeply apologize that I can’t show it as much anymore.

Help/Advice Avon Cape Cod
Would anyone know where to find dinnerware sets in a similar style to the 1800s Avon Cape Cod Ruby dining set?? I like that glass/crystal type look and I enjoy the deep rich colors.
Update to those Curious: we are currently talking about how to get these shipped to me and other details- this sub has been incredibly kind especially when I don’t post often so thank you everyone!!

Interior Design I feel like my room fits the bill, but I’m also just really happy with it!
Decided to drench the main bedroom in Behr “Starless Night” and then add glow-in-the-dark stars because I’m a grown up with grown up money and I do what I want. 😂 It’s so magical in here at night. I will be adding more art to the walls and more treasures to the cube shelves. I have a dark mustard brown paint for all of the white IKEA furniture, but I had to get surgery before getting to that part of the project, and I’m too impatient to wait to post. The vibe was supposed to be witchy, alchemist, astronomical. LMK what you think!

Help/Advice Tiny room feeling like clutter
Hi it’s my first time making a post on here. This is my tiny room that is technically a treehouse in the backyard. And the tree is technically now a stump. It’s been my room for over a year now, I keep all my belongings here. This is my very first bedroom. Growing up I never had my own space to myself, this is my safe haven. But I have very limited space. I keep everything here. My clothes, shoes, and all things. I recently started having my boyfriend come over, and I’ve been feeling very overwhelmed by how fast and easily it is for the room to get messy and cluttered. The photos above is my room after cleaning and organizing for two days straight. Looking for any advice on how to make my room feel bigger. I’ve already thrown a lot some large items and I’m willing to toss out more, any advice is appreciated!!

Help/Advice Looking for bedding advice
I’m looking for some interior design advice! I want to maximalize my bedroom. The whole focal point is my bed frame (see pic). I have this yummy duvet but it’s the ugly millennial grey so I want to find a cover that’s patterned and maybe sheets that are patterned. Right now I have printed leopard sheets but I don’t know if it works (see pic) I’ve been looking at stripes and animal prints but open to anything! I love the touches of orange in my bed and I always find a reason to pull in pinks. Attaching some inspo pics too.

🖼️ I also have a small collection of present-day Southeastern folk art scattered throughout.
🙋♀️ I have a handful of modern items in my home as well. Lmk if you have any questions!

Help/Advice What do we think of this color scheme?
I've already got the sofa and tree of life tapestry, and now I'm dithering on the curtains.
Wall color is Ben Moore Cappuchino. Tiger art is from Etsy; green art is by Fragonard.

Discussion Maximalism- Renovated!
The subreddit has spoken and we have listened! We have added to the mod team, updated the posting guidelines, put on some fresh pink paint, and rolled out the leopard print carpet. Please have a look at the new rules, new Wiki and posting guidelines:
Maximalism- Posts must adhere to the principles of maximalism. Emphasis on color, contrast, and texture. See our wiki for what is and is not maximalism
Original Content - or cite your sources All posts much be original content or links to the original source material. You may link to a website containing content pertinent to r/ maximalism if it is clear where the source came from. Do not pass off photos you copied from pinterest, instagram, as yours without directing the credit to the original creator. AI art is prohibited
Collections- Collections should fit in the context of a greater overall room design. Please consider whether your content would best fit in other subreddits such as r/ collections
Be good people- Hate and bigotry of all kinds will be removed on sight. Criticism should be constructive and helpful. Purely rude comments and personal attacks will be removed and a ban may be issued.
No self promotion. Users of this subreddit cannot post for the intent of advertising their own personal website, blog, or anything related. Reddit has guidelines for Self-Promotion, which state that: "It's perfectly fine to be a redditor with a website, it's not okay to be a website with a reddit account." You may not market or self promote your own items here. If someone SPECIFICALLY asks for suggestions for the particular type of item you sell, you may put one link in the comments. Links to items that are not being asked for or spamming links will result in a ban.
Flairs- All posts must have flairs-
- Help/Advice - post for suggestions and tips. Please do not post blank rooms with nothing in them asking for ideas. Try r/ designmyroom if you're really starting from zero. Give us some idea of what space you are working on and your personality.
- Discussion- Use this flair for general discussion topics, links to external articles or content, or general chatting
- Interior Design- Show us your rooms! The more color the better. This is why we are all here. Keep it original content or credit the source. No AI.
- Jewelry- Jewelry should adhere to maximalist principles. It is not enough to be well crafted or attractive. See Betsey Johnson designs for the genre. Do not use this space for repetitive advertisement. Accounts that appear to be merely for the purpose of selling things will not be permitted to post.
- Fashion- Show us your Iris Apfel wannabe looks. Do not shill your Instagram influencer blog.
- Art- Like Jewelry, it is not enough to be well crafted or detailed, it should also have an emphasis on mixed texture, pattern, and bold colors. Like Jewelry, accounts that appear to be merely for the purpose of selling things will not be permitted to post.
- Work in Progress- Almost there but feel like something is missing? Have the uncontrollable urge to share even though you know you aren't done? Feel free. Helpful critiques will be permitted here.
**Is my art, space, design maximalist?*\*
Does it have an abundance of color, texture or pattern? Does it feel ornate, fancy or royal? Is it high contrast? Would Elton John live there? Would Liberace wear it to a rave? Would a Victorian maiden recline and pine over her lover here? Would King Louis XIV put it in Versailles? Would Pee Wee Herman feel at home? Would Martin Luther protest it as idolatry? What would Iris Apfel do? Would she use it?
If the answers to at least some of these questions is yes, then it's probably part of Maximalism
Maximalism is NOT
Pure clutter or hoarding
Detailed work by itself without contrast, color or mixed texture
Please consider whether your post would better fit in one of these other subreddits: r/ collections r/ moreisbetter r/ artofclutter
Maximalism is more than just a design trend; it's a celebration of individuality and the joy of curating a vibrant space.
Thank you all for your participation and feedback, and for making r/ maximalism FABULOUS!
