Shakira shows off her all-white living room
Colombian-born singer Shakira is a world-wide pressure with a residence portfolio that stretches from a personal island in the Bahamas to a Miami mansion. It is her house in Barcelona, Catalonia having said that, that serves as the best trove of interior inspiration.
Shakira, who is best identified for her hits Each time, Wherever, and Hips Really don’t Lie, shared a glimpse into the urban dwelling that she reportedly shared with her previous partner, Gerard Piqué. And whilst Barcelona is recognized as a shade-stuffed city (brimming with galleries and vivid Gaudí structures), Shakira’s residence is strikingly monotone.
The singer shared her all-white residing area thoughts (underneath) subsequent a studio session – and even though the room is darkly lit – the neutral palette shines as a result of. As do her gymnastic techniques…
The problem as to no matter if white and gray are falling out of manner for 2023 continues to divide designers – but it would seem (at the very least a single of) these ‘timeless’ hues has approval from Shakira, who has drenched her residing room with white paint, textiles, and equipment.
When the place offers a ton to admire, Shakira’s pure white couch – which dominates the spot – is a stand-out aspect – and sets the tone for the rest of her home furnishings. The singer pairs a white glass gentle with an off-white cupboard and a equally toned rug that provides a trace of warmth towards the wooden ground.
Crisp white curtains gown the window, and the ethereal materials continues (fairly unconventionally) close to the place. The white materials is observed powering the Television set and on the wall powering the previously stated sofa – producing a cocooning, coloration-drenched aesthetic.
You would be forgiven for assuming that white is Shakira’s favored shade (in terms of inside design and style, at least) due to the fact her Barcelona residing area is not the only white area on her Instagram.
She also displays her colour concepts in a white and product bed room in another post – full with a massive white mattress, off-white curtains, and a portray that creates a contrast in the usually neutral room.
Designer Jen Dallas (opens in new tab) supports this shade injection – suggesting that pairing white with pockets of coloration will help keep the shade in style following all.
‘White will usually be in trend. It is all how you existing the white that issues,’ she states.
‘I have shoppers that really like the neutral sensation of a grey and/or white palette, and when finished nicely, it can glance incredible. You just have to pay back awareness to the other pieces and parts positioned in the area making use of these hues so the area will not truly feel far too chilly. When I structure with all white or grey, I fork out exclusive attention to textures, Whether or not it be a leather-based sofa, wooden espresso desk, or the texture of linen material.’
In Shakira’s situation, the color will come from the wooden-hued ground (in her living house) and the artwork in the bedroom. However, as Jen implies, the variants are considerably from minimal.
