The home is a place of superlatives. Not only is it where daily life unfolds in its full breadth, but it is also the space for big feelings, big decisions and big moments. In a world that is often characterized by a hectic pace and constant change, many people are looking for a retreat that offers both tranquillity and an expressive personality. This is where the "Oversized" interior trend comes in, which not only pleases the eye with its generous dimensions, but also makes a statement of courage and self-confidence.
"Oversized" in the interior means consciously opting for pieces of furniture and decorations that fascinate with their imposing size and present appearance. These elements create an atmosphere of comfort and luxury that is particularly appreciated in today's world. We are talking about sofas that offer more space than usual, tables that allow conversations over large rounds, beds that transform the bedroom into a real oasis of well-being or large murals that amaze. Each of these pieces of furniture not only serves a practical purpose, but is also a work of art in its own right that defines and characterizes the room.
The luxury lies not only in the size, but also in the quality of these furnishing elements. Materials play a decisive role. Precious woods, the finest textiles and high-quality, exquisite porcelain are the basis on which the "oversized" concept is built. The workmanship must meet the highest standards, as every detail counts in order not only to achieve the sophisticated overall impression, but also to ensure it is sustainable. The pieces should create an environment that is both representative and inviting, both through their dimensions and their aesthetic quality.

With large vases and floor vases, we also have excellent examples of how the "oversized" trend can be used in interior design. These vases are not only functional in that they offer generous space for floral arrangements, but they also stand out in the room as objects of art in their own right. Artful showpieces, such as the hand-painted Fortune Dragon vase or the colorful Bloom Garden vases by artist Lena Hensel, are stunning works of art that make an impression in any room with their imposing size as well as their elaborate painting.
This shows that the philosophy of the "oversized" trend is not limited to the sheer size of the furnishing elements. It is important to ensure harmonious proportions. For this reason, the furnishing style is often combined with minimalist approaches. The room should not be overloaded; the furniture, floor vases and showpieces need enough space. Too many elements would diminish the powerful effect of the individual "oversized" pieces and counteract the aim of creating an open and inviting living space. At the same time, the elements should also have that certain something to fill a room. Large, hand-painted porcelain wall paintings or large porcelain figurines, such as those once created by Johann Joachim Kaendler with his animal sculptures, stand on their own and manage to completely take over the room.
When it comes to impressively integrating porcelain in large sizes into the interior design, the Naturresort & Spa Schindelbruch in the southern Harz region is a real role model. The MEISSEN hospitality concept focuses on the idea of showing enthusiasm for the beautiful, the valuable and the joy of the extraordinary and combining cultural assets, art, craftsmanship and lifestyle in a unique way. Here you can discover, among other things, impressive large porcelain sculptures from Kaendler's "Menagerie of Animals" from the early 18th century, which enrich the interior in a magnificent way. In the resort's rooms, large, ultra-modern wall installations made of "white gold" create an "oversized“ look that is sure to amaze.
In summary, the "Oversized" interior trend is an invitation to bring generosity and boldness into the design of your own home. It encourages you to break away from conventional ideas and instead create a space that both reflects your own personality and conveys a sense of luxury and comfort. For lovers of high-end design and artful craftsmanship, this trend offers a platform where they can fully express their preferences, supported by the unparalleled quality and timeless design of MEISSEN.
