- Interior
Urban, sexy, cosy, international, cosmopolitan,... These are a few words that describe a metropolitan interior for Pieter Elzenga, manager at designer Eric Kuster. He gave us some tips to stylishly decorate an interior. Eric Kuster’s label is known for bringing 'metropolitan luxury'. This style attracts many people and Pieter himself finds it a great way of decorating, because it gives space and feels very cosy and pleasant. It is not too minimalist or classic, but also not too over the top.
"Everything is possible, as long as everything is in balance and it doesn't become too much."
He recommends neutral earthy tones which can then be supplemented with colourful decorative pieces. For example, use minerals, different textures, fabrics and patterns, metals such as copper, brass, chrome and marble as eye-catchers.
He also tells us that beautiful (scented) candles or cushions are a nice addition to any style, in this way you don't keep it too clean. When we asked him about upcoming winter trends, he told us that this is exactly the beauty of a metropolitan interior and Kuster’s style: such an interior is timeless, pleasant and atmospheric and does not necessarily have to follow the trends. According to Pieter, this style can also be perfectly combined with other styles: "Everything is possible, as long as everything is in balance and it doesn't become too much."
