Have you ever been in a living room or bedroom that just felt… sterile? Like there’s no character or coziness?
Your home is meant to be cozy, and more importantly, a reflection of your personal taste and style! That’s where cozy maximalism comes in. Cozy maximalism is a decor style that emphasizes “more is more” when it comes to bringing in elements of your style and things that make you feel at home.
And trust me, by the end of this article, you’ll be itching to redecorate!
