How to create timeless spaces with contemporary elements
1. Keep the details permanent with more traditional styles, but feel free to go more modern with your decorating choices.
To achieve a more timeless look, it is advisable to choose a chair or sofa in a more classic style, not necessarily vintage. There are contemporary designs that evoke furniture in a more traditional style, with modern touches that bring freshness to a space. You can play to the maximum with decorative elements, going to the forefront of different styles.
2. Start with a color palette
This may sound simple, but taking the time to perfect a color palette will help simplify the process of purchasing furniture and accessories. This can help you define more traditional or neutral colors, such as grays or dark leathers for your furniture, and define which items will be given a touch of color from your palette.
It can be applied to decorative elements, art , side tables , cushions or blankets , even to the upholstery of a side chair .
3. Use shelves with personal items
Something that is personal to us will never go out of style. Items brought back from trips, family photos professionally framed in an “editorial style,” collectible books, and other personal items are an excellent option for decorating shelves and giving them a timeless touch, regardless of the style of the furniture.
