Is a minimalist room the room for you?

Having a minimalist room seems to be the hottest bedroom trend these days. Youtubers like Haley Estrada who live in clutter-free houses are popping up everywhere and it doesn't seem like they’ll be going anywhere anytime soon. And yet - is the hype worth it? Should you be hopping onto the minimalist-bedroom bandwagon too? Here at Funritureful we’ve decided to check into this new and emerging trend to weigh its pros and cons and see if it could be ideal for you and your family. So, let’s get into it!

What is a minimalist room?

A minimalist room is a room that has been sparsely furnished so that it has a modern, uncluttered look. 

Why are minimalist rooms so popular?

Do you enjoy clutter? Or do you prefer the serenity and cleanliness of a room that’s full of space and made up exactly as you like it? The thing about clutter is - many of us simply do not enjoy it. It can be a serious distraction for the mind and lead to apathy and depression because as the piles mount up so does your stress at the thought of tidying them up.

And don’t be put off at the thought that it’s just a ‘trend’ - if anything minimalism appears to be here to stay and a fantastic opportunity for all. From busy moms who need space for their kids to single elderly adults who don’t need much room, minimalism is a lifesaver because, ultimately, it promotes a sense of responsibility and peace. No more worries about the ten thousand different outfits in your wardrobe. Instead, it's all about keeping an empty room to maintain a worry-free, empty mind.

So, what are you waiting for? It’s time to chuck out all of the baggage in your life and make a fresh start. For good!
