As a staunch maximalist, minimalist Christmas decor sits in opposition to everything I stand for. I know that beige ornaments, clean-lined trees, and boucle angels are the pinnacle of chic to many designers, but for me, they tend to fall flat, and I much prefer a gaudy display bursting with color and lights. However, even I have to admit that Julianne Moore's pared-back Christmas display is stunning.
The actress took to Instagram to share the simple Christmas tree idea in her lower Manhattan townhouse. Julianne's miniature tree is naked except for a smattering of warm Christmas lights, highlighting the simple beauty of the small, spare evergreen. Positioned to the left of her large windows, every detail feels beautifully intentional.
