Less isn't always more. Social media may lead you to believe that bare white walls and plain beige countertops are all the rage, but let's be honest, they're just boring. If you're tired of seeing influencers featuring homes without any color or personality, we've got a palate cleanser down below, pandas.
We took a trip to the Maximalist group on Reddit and compiled a list of some of their most fabulous photos. Now, if you're a self-proclaimed minimalist, these photos might stress you out. But if you love cozy homes with plenty of color and personal touches, you're in for a visual feast. Enjoy scrolling through these pics of maximalist decor done right, and be sure to upvote the ones that inspire you to spruce up your own home!

I grew up in a replica Victorian house and all the ceilings were wallpapered. Which ended up being a pain to fix when my dad accidentally stepped in the wrong place in the attic and put his foot through the floor/ceiling below. 😂

Gorgeous, but they won't think so when they have to dust it. That's the only problem with maximalism - more places for dirt and dust to collect.

I recognize a litter robot when I see one! But we have a litter robot 3, the one in the back. One of the best purchases I've ever made... Right behind my trusty truck, that cost $100 less than the litter robot... 🤣

That fireplace is quite unique. I’ve always loved the two sided ones. With installing an insert you get more heat and less cold drafts.

I do like OP’s acquisitions. I think rearranging the furniture (away from the walls) would make this room more appealing.

The green and white wall is definitely an improvement from the plain white wall that was there originally.
