Summary

Three simple rules — minimalism, monochrome, and well-chosen light — make it possible to create interiors that are elegant and resistant to the passage of time. Combining modernity with elements that reference history, such as wicker lampshades or geometric patterns, gives a space character.

Trends come and go, but a foundation based on these pillars will always look good. Interestingly, designers predict a return of the Arts and Crafts movement in art and furniture-making, which proves that timelessness often comes from references to the past.
