Set the scene
Make Maximalist something you feel.
The furniture is only half of it. Sound, scent, texture, and the last touch of light are what a render can't show you, and what turns the room into the moment.
Sound
Lush and expressive
Something rich and a little theatrical, to match the room.
Scent
Fig and incense
Layered and heady, unafraid to be noticed.
Texture
Velvet on pattern on silk
Pile it on: velvet, patterned textiles, a silk edge.
The last touch
Warm light, many sources
Several low lamps and candles, a glow from every corner.
