As people seek higher quality, heritage furnishings, and resist quick-fading trends, quiet luxury has become the prevailing, timeless aesthetic of our era. A few years ago, the phrase described mostly beige and cream spaces, but that is all changing.
Jaclyn Smith's colorful yet opulent space lends insight into what's replacing quiet luxury: colorful quiet luxury. In a recent Instagram post, the actress posed on a green velvet chair atop her checkered marble floors. A faux fur throw adds a splash of texture. In the background, gold shelves are expertly accessorized with a collection of books. It is understatedly luxurious, but with splashes of color throughout.
