Thinking of refreshing your home this season? Take it from the pros: sometimes simplicity is the most powerful design mantra. Here\u2019s a play-by-play guide to simple design by the geniuses at MU, the architects behind the new Bota Bota garden.<\/p>\n

Charles C\u00f4t\u00e9 and Jean-S\u00e9bastien Herr don\u2019t follow trends; they start them. The co-founders of MU<\/a> are known for the refined simplicity of their designs. In addition to conceiving the brand new Bota Bota garden, they\u2019ve signed industrial, commercial, and residential designs everywhere from Dubai to Nepal. C\u00f4t\u00e9 shares the firm\u2019s very usable guide to MU\u2019s top 2015 design details. Which ones will you take home?<\/p>\n

1) FLOOR-TO-CEILING DOORS: \u201cI\u2019m currently redoing my own home, and I\u2019m putting in full-length doors without frames. They\u2019re on the same plane as the walls, without being recessed, so they have an amazing way of creating a sense of height and minimalism in the entire space.\u201d<\/p>\n

2) DOUBLE FAUCETS IN THE KITCHEN: \u201cSo many people put double sinks in their bathrooms, but I don\u2019t really see the purpose of that. What I\u2019m doing is double sinks \u2013 with two faucets \u2013 in the kitchen. It\u2019s so practical, when one person wants to wash a dish while the other is rinsing vegetables.\u201d<\/p>\n

3) DIAGONAL PATTERNS: \u201cWe use a lot of wood at MU, on floors, walls, and ceilings, and what we like to do to create dynamism in the space is run the planks at a 45-degree angle, from corner to corner on the diagonal. It immediately animates the room.\u201d<\/p>\n

4) NATURAL TEXTURES: \u201cWe enjoy texture, and recently we\u2019ve gone to a more \u2018essential\u2019 place with our designs, where we\u2019ll play with the knots in wood and use them as a pattern. It\u2019s a nice to way to nod at tradition but in a very contemporary and minimalist context.\u201d<\/p>\n

5) SLEEK LIGHTING SOLUTIONS: \u201cAt MU, we\u2019re always looking to make the basic elements of our designs disappear so that our attention is captivated only by the statement pieces. In that vein, we like to hide the electric plaque of our ceiling lights behind the wall, so that all one sees in the slender line of the wire.\u201d<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
