Asian powder room with Hakatai mosaic glass tile wall as backdrop, Asian vanity with Koi vessel sink, modern faucet in bamboo shape and dramatic golden mirror.

Illuminated cabinets, sparkling wall sconces, and even small table lamps help the kitchen shine. Warm light plays off the butter-colored walls, and downlights help the floor shine. Photo by Prairieland Designs Visit LightCanHelpYou.com for more of my stories, articles, blog posts, and services.

Quiet luxury encourages you to invest in your home, not just furnish it. This trend is about incorporating select high-quality pieces into your contemporary space to elevate the aesthetic. Importantly, quiet luxury is not about filling a room with finely-made furnishings - instead, it’s about using only one or two high-quality pieces to instill a subtle sense of sophistication. To create this look, start by finding finely-made items that complement your space and showcase a few refined design elements. Our designers recommend looking for items that speak to you and are made using premium, long-lasting construction techniques and high-quality materials like solid hardwood and top grain leather. The other aspect of quiet luxury to consider has to do with the “quiet” part of the name. A room with the quiet luxury look will contain a few high-end pieces that you’ve invested in, but the pieces shouldn’t steal too much attention with flashy elements and glossy finishes. Quiet luxury shines through moody tones and traditional color palettes, which is why quiet luxury statement pieces are often dressed in dark colors or deep earth tones for a distinctive atmosphere. Another way high-quality furnishings can have a "quiet" look is through the use of aging techniques applied to their surface, which delivers a perfectly understated, timeworn aesthetic.
