Justin and Hailey Bieber's living room shelves showcase a harmony of design, embodying a balance believed to foster long-term tranquility, according to their design approach.
Elevate the visual appeal of your living room without breaking the bank by mastering the art of well-styled shelves, as demonstrated by Justin and Hailey Bieber's minimalist living room. Their shelving units, flanking the fireplace, are adorned with a thoughtful collection of books, vases, and glass sculptures, with due consideration given to open space to create an elegant and intimate atmosphere.
To achieve this look, follow the guidance of renowned interior designer, Laura Hammett: "When crafting visually interesting and harmonious shelf displays, treat them as gallery spaces, emphasizing the importance of negative space. Resist the temptation to overcrowd your shelves."
The Beribers' shelf styling can be effortlessly recreated with a little know-how. Begin by mirroring their taste in classic coffee table books, such as the suggested tome in the article. For decor, consider the infinity knot sculpture – a piece that the Biebers have incorporated into their shelving arrangement. To add a touch of luxury, opt for a gold-plated porcelain vase as a true statement piece.
When it comes to building your own bookshelf wealth, start by visualizing your shelving area as a pyramid. Place a large statement piece at the top center, drawing the eye upwards, before moving down and filling out the space with smaller items like photo frames and candles at eye level. At the lower levels, distribute bold, anchoring items like books, storage boxes, or sculptural pieces evenly across the width of the bottom shelves to achieve visual harmony.
Remember, contrast is key when it comes to styling shelves, and asymmetry adds an air of sophistication. Laura suggests not creating identical arrangements on both sides, but rather achieving balanced proportions and heights, giving the impression of a balanced yet unpretentious look.
To make your living room shelves appear more luxurious, incorporate a classic merchandising trick: styling in pairs. Group together glass vases or photo frames in two sizes or stagger photographs for depth and a personal touch. Variety is also crucial; mix up materials, textures, and forms to enhance depth and interest in your display. For instance, use organic-shaped glass vases alongside a bronze-trimmed media box for a striking contrast.
Lastly, don't shy away from experimenting with your shelves. With the right balance of symmetry, minimalism, and personal touches, you can create a stylish and elegant shelving arrangement inspired by the Biebers' living room style.
By incorporating a thoughtful selection of books, decorative items, and sculptures, you can recreate the Biebers' minimalist and stylish living room shelves. To achieve a visually harmonious display, follow Laura Hammett's suggestions: create symmetry but avoid identical arrangements, emphasize negative space, and consider the merchandising trick of styling in pairs for a luxurious look.
