And for those who prefer the less is more approach to décor, the interior designer also offered ways to add flair while still keeping a minimalistic aesthetic.
“I did a home for Winnie Harlow and she wanted white on white on white,” Martyn recalled. “And so, we changed that from being bland to something very glamorous by adding different shades of white and adding texture.”
As he put it, “Texture gives character to a space. You can have five white things, but if they’re all a different textures, you’ve suddenly formulated something that has spirit and personality.”
In fact, designing a home can be as effortless as piecing together an outfit.
“You can put a white T-shirt and jeans on and look like everybody else,” Martyn explained, “or you can put a white T-shirt and jeans, an amazing belt, statement earrings, a pair of high heels and you’re ready to walk the runway.”
