Traditional Meets Modern
Transitional decor marries traditional and modern in a fresh, timeless way
While specific decor styles come and go, transitional decor hits a sweet spot for many homeowners and designers. Transitional decor typically is a marriage of traditional and modern. It combines familiar shapes but can be refreshed with more modern touches, so it’s never difficult or overwhelming. While stark minimalism, full-scale mid-century or Art Deco looks greats in pictures, most people want to live with comfortable, pretty things. And most of us don’t do a wholesale redecoration every few years and want to use family antiques or vintage pieces here and there. Transitional can lean more modern; if you prefer more traditional, mix it up with a few clean-lined pieces and art to avoid that staid feel. And using time-tested but still relevant styles, such as campaign chests, Parsons chairs and tables, X-benches or stools and swivel chairs will give you rooms that are functional, pretty and will wear well over time. Add some bling, mix up your legs and skirts and always have a mirror! Learn more about refreshing, contact us.
