Create Quiet Luxury with Zellige Tiles and Limestone from Opia Design
True sophistication whispers rather than shouts. At Opia Design, this ethos of quiet luxury and sustainable materials is celebrated. Here elegance is found in the serene blend of warm minimalism, cosy textures, and earthy hues.
Quiet luxury begins with warm minimalism.
Every element must be thoughtfully chosen for both beauty and function. The aim is thus to let you breathe out at the doorstep of your house. I love working with authentic Zellige tiles as they’re handcrafted with a distinctive, lustrous finish. Furthermore, they infuse spaces with subtle yet captivating texture. It’s never too little or too much. Mixed with any other materials, it lifts a room without being overpowering.
Our other go-to combination to achieve luxury effortlessly is Limestone and Wood. These materials create a harmonious backdrop that whispers understated opulence. We advise selecting furnishings with clean lines and sculptural forms to complement these natural elements. This subsequently ensures that each piece contributes to a serene and cohesive atmosphere.
A palette of muted, earthy tones is essential for achieving quiet luxury.
We advocate for soft beiges, gentle whites, and warm greys to create a soothing environment. This will subsequently allow your other materials to shine. These colors, reminiscent of nature’s own palette, invite calm and serenity into your home.
A key element to keep in mind is texture.
We recommend introducing the soft touch of linen drapes, the plush comfort of a woolen rug and warm tones. Choose quality over quantity as these details will draw the eyes. Enhance this effect with organic elements such as potted plants or botanical prints, which breathe life and vibrancy into the space.
At last, remember that the planet can’t afford unsustainable products. Choose yours carefully even if the price tag is higher. You will thank yourself later. Remember that luxury is passed down into future generations.
