Home

This is what the homeowner was going for.  

Do you think she achieved it?  Why or why not?

I like it and if she think she has achieved that look and she is happy ...mission accomplished. It is each individual persons interpretation IMO.

I agree with @DREAMON - only she knows if she achieved the look she was going for. If she is happy with the look, then nothing else matters. Who am I to say it is right or wrong?

BtW - I like that it has a clean, fresh look and is pretty much clutter free.

The home is very nicely styled and quite minimal.  However, if I'm judging how it looks as an Afro-centric minimalist theme, it fails.  There is too much beige and white, and not enough color to live up to the Afro part of the name.

I like it.  That looks like Beth from This Is Us.

It does not appear minimalistic to me. There are way too many items in the rooms...furniture and wall decor breaks up the planes of geometry.  Some of the textural elements like the linens are great. But I would not call the rest of it minimal at all.

I like it because it’s simple but nice.  Yes she achieved the look because she’s relaxed and smiling.

I love the colors.  They don't shout at you as you look at the room.  I see hints of it being Afrocentric.  It's a decor that one won't tire of for years.  The main thing is if the homeowner loves it.

I don't see the minimalist in this decor. The furniture itself is to me, as it has a thin and spindly look with all the metal, but there is an awful lot of decor on the surfaces that doesn't say minimal to me at all. 

I don't see what I would consider a lot of traditional African influence either.

Homes like this, to me show no personality, but look like something that someone went to the stores and put together all at once to achieve some kind of look, but when I see it, I don't get who they are or what they are in to. 

That lady in the first picture looks like one of the actresses from This is Us. 

[lolakimono]

Yes, that is the actress from This is Us.
