What is quiet luxury interior design?
Quiet luxury interior design combines simplicity and elegance, accomplished by selecting decorative pieces for your home, which should either be made of or replicate natural materials and neutral colours. The aesthetic also aims to embody hand-crafted designs that exude a unique and exclusive look.
However, this quiet luxury trend should not be misinterpreted as ostentatious or materialistic. Instead, it is about luxuriously customising your home using particular colours and tones that create a calming and warm effect.
Rather than displaying loud and extravagant furniture and fixtures throughout your house, quiet luxury interior design is about merging subtlety and sophistication for understated yet stylish results.
Why is quiet luxury trending?
The quiet luxury style of reinventing your home comes from various sources, such as popular culture and the ever-growing desire to practice sustainability.
In 2023, mainstream industries such as interior design and fashion saw quiet luxury catapult, with ‘#quietluxury’ videos on TikTok surpassing 81 million views. It is believed that the hit television series Succession is to thank for this, with the protagonist “Roy” family exhibiting a perfect balance between regalness and regularity within their homes and clothing.
Rather than spending money on low-quality home and clothing products that need replacing frequently, consumers are adopting quiet luxury as a means of investment, prioritising purchases of longevity and sustainability. While this may sound expensive, to begin with, the trend proves to be more economical in the long run.
What are the colours for quiet luxury interior?
A main factor in perfecting quiet luxury interior is choosing the right colours to contrastingly emulate modesty and expense. Whether the focus is on your furniture or lighting, white and gold are the two main colours you should implement into your home.
So you can confidently apply quiet luxury lighting to your decor, Dusk Lighting has listed some recommended fixtures to inspire you.
Visionary Lighting Tarrant 41w LED Pendant
The Visionary Lighting Tarrant 41w LED Pendant elegantly incorporates signature quiet luxury colours with its satin gold finish and white diffuser. With its height adjustability and dimmer feature, this fixture creates the perfect quiet luxury aesthetic while providing full customisation. Whether you choose to have it as the main light source in your room or personalise it to create a warm ambience, this pendant will provide unlimited versatility.
Endon Lighting Nixon 2 Light Brass Effect Table Lamp
Give your quiet luxury interior design a vintage feel with the Endon Lighting Nixon 2 Light Brass Effect Table Lamp. The brass effect frame and the white faux silk lampshade will radiate warmth within your room as a task light when reading or as a base layer if you choose to install more than one.
Its intricate crystal detailing is also a signature feature for quiet luxury when considering its aim to display understated softness and grandeur.
Lumiere Shute 3lt Wall Light
If you want to express your quiet luxury style with wall lighting, the Lumiere Shute 3lt Wall Light is the ideal starting point. The opal glass globes are available in various sizes, allowing you to customise them to suit your decor fully.
The fixture is also compatible with dimmable and non-dimmable bulbs, meaning you can determine its function and have it as a traditional lamp or a means of ambience.
Endon Lighting Nixon Six Light Pendant
If you prefer a white lighting fixture, the Endon Lighting Nixon Six Light Pendant has a white faux silk shade and crystal detail, maximising an elegant feel within your home. As with many of our lighting designs, you can install dimmable bulbs into this fixture to create multifunctionality.
You can match this pendant with the Endon Lighting Nixon 2 Light Bright Nickel and Crystal Wall Light and Endon Lighting Nixon 2 Light Bright Nickel Table Lamp to give your room consistency while creating endless lighting effects.
Lumiere Clovelly Sand White and Polished Chrome LED Wall Light
Your quiet luxury interior design ideas may involve giving your home a modern edge with the Lumiere Clovelly Sand White and Polished Chrome LED Wall Light. The 3000k LED bulbs sit within the protruding frame, dispersing the light in two directions and creating a pleasant ambience. Although the bulbs are not dimmable, their concealment naturally prevents the light from spreading, causing an intimate atmosphere and a cosy feel.
Lumiere Revelstoke 2 LED Floor Lamp
Combine minimalism with elegance with the Lumiere Revelstoke 2 LED Floor Lamp. With a natural white lighting finish, perfect your stunning, quiet luxury feel and create various effects with its dimmer feature.
Similar to the Nixon 2 collection, this range consists of a Lumiere Revelstoke 2 LED Table Lamp and a Lumiere Revelstoke 16W LED Wall Lamp to give your home a cohesive look.
What is the difference between minimalism and quiet luxury?
Minimalist and quiet luxury are designed to remove clutter and excess from your home while providing relaxation and serenity. However, one distinct difference sets them apart.
While the quiet luxury trend merges subtlety and opulence while adding a sense of exclusivity to your decor, minimalist luxury is executed with intentional simplicity and views added finery as unnecessary.
It could be suggested that although minimalist luxury fulfils its purpose and gives your home airy lightness, quiet luxury aesthetics provide much more room for personalisation. So, if you prefer adding detail and warmth to your home, a quiet luxury approach is for you.
