Maximalism: The art of daring more
What is maximalist design?
While minimalism emphasizes reduction and simplicity, maximalism goes in the opposite direction: "More is more." It's all about combining contrasting colors, opulent patterns, and different art styles to create an inviting and vibrant atmosphere.
Important styles in maximalism:
- Bauhaus style : clear geometric shapes and strong colors.
- Mid-century design: elegance and functionality with a touch of retro.
- Modern Art: Contemporary art with creative and unusual approaches.
- Street art & graffiti art : Urban, rebellious motifs for a dynamic ambience.
- Abstract art: playing with shapes, colors and structures without concrete specifications.
Why are XXL posters and canvas prints a perfect fit for maximalism?
Large-format artwork like our XXL posters and gallery-quality canvas prints are key to completing the maximalist look. They add bold accents and transform empty walls into vibrant works of art. Whether it's an oversized abstract painting or a colorful graffiti motif , you'll find exactly what you need to add personality to your spaces.
How to integrate XXL posters and canvas prints into your maximalist home
1. Dare to use color
Colors are at the heart of maximalism. Our large-format posters and canvas prints offer a wide range of intense tones to brighten up your spaces. Combine, for example, bright red and deep blue from the Bauhaus style or embrace the dynamic contrasts of modern art.
2. Mix & Match of styles
Maximalism allows for harmonious combinations of different styles. A geometric mid-century motif can hang next to an abstract canvas, while a colorful street art poster complements the ensemble. Our selection makes it easy to create such exciting combinations.
3. Layering and overlaying
Combine large wall art with smaller accessories like framed prints, mirrors, or wallpaper with striking patterns. Our range offers the perfect foundation for playfully creating these layers.
4. Design theme walls
Use gallery-quality XXL posters and canvas prints as the centerpiece of your themed wall. A wall dedicated entirely to graffiti style creates an urban flair, while a wall with abstract and modern artwork creates an elegant, timeless aesthetic.
