# Minimalist Living Spaces CaSa's 'White Room' Project Embodies The Power of Simplicity By Gurveer Brah | Published 2015-08-18 | Art & Design Source: Trend Hunter, https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/minimalist-living-space References: [desiretoinspire.net](http://www.desiretoinspire.net/blog/2015/8/18/the-white-room.html) & [cargocollective](http://cargocollective.com/CaSA) The 'White Room' by [Barcelona](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/colombo-and-serboli-architecture-1)-based architecture firm [CaSa](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/casa-gesso) is a minimalist living space that is created with both elegance and budget in mind. CaSa's team renovated an old apartment on a tight budget, creating an all white, masterful display of simple design. Located in Sitges, Spain, the snowy apartment makes the most out of a small space and is accented with monochromatic photographs, storage spaces and a small area that is fit for a music collection. This ivory apartment pays homage to the iconic Cream song that shares the same name as the minimalist living space. The 'White Room' is bathed with natural light that contributes to its achromatic color pattern -- a result of shadows that are cast across pale finishes. ## Trend Insights (Trend Hunter) - Score: 5.3/10 - Popularity: 83% | Activity: 68% | Freshness: 8% - Audience gender: 50% men, 50% women - Primary generations: Millennial, Gen X - Top markets: North America, Europe, Asia ## Categories [Trend Hunter](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends) > [Art & Design](https://www.trendhunter.com/artdesign) > [Design](https://www.trendhunter.com/design) ## Key Themes ### What's Driving This Trend - **Minimalist Design:** Opportunity for businesses to create products and services that embrace simplicity and minimalism in design. - **Budget Renovation:** Opportunity for businesses to offer affordable renovation solutions that prioritize elegance and cost-efficiency. - **Small Space Optimization:** Opportunity for businesses to develop innovative solutions for maximizing the functionality and aesthetics of small living spaces. ### Who This Affects Most - **Architecture and Interior Design:** Disruptive innovation opportunity for firms to offer minimalist design services and budget-friendly renovation solutions. - **Furniture and Home Décor:** Disruptive innovation opportunity for companies to create products that cater to the minimalist design trend, focusing on functionality and simplicity. - **Smart Storage Solutions:** Disruptive innovation opportunity for businesses to develop efficient and innovative storage solutions for small living spaces. ## Related on Trend Hunter - [Compact White-Painted Modern Homes](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/whitepainted-modern-home.md) - [Monochrome Living Spaces](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/grigio-verde.md) - [Reflective Artful Calming Homes](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/casa-gesso.md) - [Minimal Material Residences](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/marcela-cure.md) - [Reimagined Minimal Parisian Apartments](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/minimalist-cocoon.md) - [Vibrant Tonal Spanish Apartments](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/colombo-and-serboli-architecture-1.md) - [Barcelona Apartment Renovation Projects](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/isern-serra.md) - [Neighborhood House Renovations](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/casa-cruda.md) - [Compact Madrid Residences](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/burr-studio-1.md)
