It isn\u2019t a recent fight, this one between minimalism and opulent style.<\/p>\n

In the past few years minimalism inspired in nordic style has gaigned force and has countered the opulence decoration, which has being seen as a synonimous of good taste ans sophistication. Now, the war has started and it seems that the motto \u201cless is more\u201d is prevailing.<\/p>\n

Even the big fairs are being influenced by this tendency: In the last edition of the well-known french \u00a0exhibition Maison et Objet, the theme was \u201celements\u201d, putting the emphasis in undressing the excess and taking place the purity of straight lines.<\/p>\n

Essentiel: the return to essence and the celebration of minimalism\u00a0<\/em><\/p>\n

At the most recent european hotel design awards, minimalism won once more. Considered the Best Of The Best Design Hotel of Europe, Superbude St Pauli in Hamburg, Germany, took the award.<\/p>\n

But if you think that this wave of minimalism is just taking place in Europe, you\u2019re deeply wrong: even MoMa at New York has been rendered to this style.<\/p>\n

\u00a0However, the opulent style has being resisted to the stagger of this tendancy: the proof is that the majory of celebrities still prefer opulent goods instead \u00a0the minimalist ones.<\/p>\n

Gwen Stefani is thinking to choose the most excentric and opulent design in order to decorate her home: between the brands represented, there is Boca do Lobo, Lee Broom and Kelly Wearstler, a few examples of her opulent options picked by the interior designer andieday.com.<\/p>\n

\u00a0<\/em>This fight indeed is being even more intense. Although the famous Hollywood stars prefer the opulent style the truth is that minimalism is gaining even more strenght.<\/p>\n
