Luxury does not have to shout and be conspicuous. It can be discreet and subtle. Quiet luxury - this is a trend that first made its presence felt in the fashion world and then entered various spheres of life, including the real estate market, proudly and with its head held high. There is no simple guide on how to create an interior or an entire property in the style of quiet luxury. It is the nuances that decide.

Quality first

It is quality of workmanship and durability of materials used distinguishes properties that fit in with the trend towards quiet luxury. The oak parquet floor will look great despite the passage of time or intensive use. The natural stone found in the interior is a decoration in itself, as are the huge, panoramic windows and the opening up of the natural landscape. Properties in the quiet luxury style are also characterised by care for the environment and minimising the impact on the climate. The owners of such homes choose to introduce ecological solutions such as renewable energy and sensible water management, including rainwater harvesting.

Subtlety, timelessness and design

When designing a space in the quiet luxury style, we do not have to stick to a specific colour palette. There are no rules about colour. There is always room for timeless designin both small and larger forms: from a Henningsen lamp to a Scandinavian teak desk. The important thing is to maintain moderation. That is why there is no room here for flashy monograms of well-known brands or trinkets for one season only. Coco Chanel said: "Fashion passes, style remains" and this statement fits the trend of quiet luxury as well. The design of the house itself will not be overwhelmed by ornaments and fancy facades either. Quiet luxury is also about minimalism, but in a slightly different way.

Functionalism through and through

The role of the individual approach in designing and furnishing a space in the spirit of quiet luxury is crucial. We are the ones who are supposed to feel comfortable in our home or flat. The layout of the rooms, furniture and accessories should all be tailored to us and fit like a perfectly tailored suit. There is no question of succumbing to fashion or copying solutions that are repeated in many projects.

Luxury has many incarnations. It can be decorative and ornate, but also subdued and detail-focused. The quiet luxury trend is strongly visible in the premium real estate sector. It influences architectural forms and interior design. It is not defined by a strict framework, it is diverse and tailored to the individual. It is characterised only by attention to workmanship, appreciation of design and class.
