I abhor clutter.......I also dislike stark minimalism - it's BORING. However, I think there is a fine line between a visually interesting space and a messy, clutter-filled room. 
Style isn't a factor here - modern vs. traditional -elle decor vs. traditional home - comfort is key! 
Color, treasured possessions, books, scented candles, fresh flowers and comfortable furnishings with cushions are the life of a room!
Presentation and organization are key! I realize a lot of this is personal taste. I prefer the visual warmth of personal belongings displayed to their best advantage - it lends an air of personality and charm.
I think you would say my own apartment is a well organized but full of PERSONALITY. Hopefully no one would call it clutter-filled! ya, these pics are not my apt! lol I WISH!
Compare the charm of Miles Redd to Armani home -big difference, huh? Which would you rather spend time in?

It is all about proportion, scale and objects.
Objects need to be large and small. If everything is all small - then it looks cluttered.
I feel the same, love modern, simple, minimal but also love to live with things artfully arranged
I call it "Museum Modern"--
