Pared back to peaceful perfection and blanked out with space expanding white decor, minimalist modern homes are pictures of airy tranquility. No nonsense minimalist living spaces are appealing in their simplicity and complete lack of overwhelm. Crisp minimalism exudes an air of positivity, possibility, and makes room for creativity. Best of all, it can be achieved on any scale, as these two modest interiors effortlessly prove. If the idea of simpler living, less cleaning and more time for you sounds good, then pull inspiration for positive change through home designs that lock down the look and the lifestyle. Breathe in clean minimalist living spaces, pared back white kitchens and relaxing bedrooms.

The first of our two featured home designs is a modern minimalist apartment located in Ha Noi City, Vietnam. An open plan layout smooths the path of easy, free-flowing living.

A reading nook has been fashioned into the large window reveal. Wood panelling frames the bench as a room within a room.

Drawers beneath the window bench provide extra storage to the minimalist living room, to help keep the space clear and organised.

Kitchen storage is sliced into three separate volumes, with the cooking hob positioned at the heart of the layout on a small peninsula.

In the entryway, plain white closets match the clean aesthetic of the kitchen volumes, which creates the illusion of a much larger kitchen area.

A white upright piano fits neatly into a niche between kitchen cabinets and the dining area. Above the piano, a contrasting black Eames bird cuts a dark silhouette against a tiled white backdrop and white bookshelves.

The kitchen unit next to the music area features retractable doors, which open up a convenient coffee bar.

At the other side of the piano, the modern dining set brings a touch of warmth to the ice white decor scheme with its natural wood finish.

The kitchen peninsula wraps around the edge of the partition wall, where it serves as a useful entryway shelf. A JWDA table lamp by Menu lights a welcoming glow.

Inside the bedroom, custom made furniture makes the most of compact dimensions. A platform bed has been built to fit the room from edge-to-edge, including an elongated headboard design that encompasses a floating bedside storage unit. An extended ledge along the length of the bed positions an Atollo lamp at an ideal height for reading.

Our second home tour takes place in the 96 square metre Half Space Residence, located in Wen Ling, Zhe Jiang Province, China. In this minimalist living space, the spine of an open staircase design stretches up across the focal TV wall. A sleek low level modern TV stand extends a matching wood and white finish beneath the treads.

The modern kitchen is situated beyond the stairwell. A simple but stylish dining area gives access to a ground floor bedroom through sliding doors.

A rectangle dining table proportionately fits the length and breadth of the room, with ample walking space left around it to ensure an uncluttered end result. Scandinavian style dining chairs smooth out the set.
