Easy Style

If decorating has you feeling overwhelmed, it’s time to return to basics: look for the beauty in simplicity, live by the ethos of “just enough” and get back to nature. You’ll feel relaxed in no time.

choose the right pieces

The key to stress-free decorating is to not overthink things and choose pieces you’re naturally drawn to – look for shapes, colours and textures that make you feel at ease. This is what Morgwn Rimel has done inside her converted loft apartment. By choosing what she finds visually pleasing, all the furniture, lighting and accessories work together. A little restraint, too, will go a long way in creating a laidback feel. Here, everything from the kettle to the dining table has been displayed specifically – nothing is superfluous.
