Can you mix antiques with modern decor?
Yes, & it's a great way to create a unique design!
Group antiques together
Grouping similar antiques together creates a focal point and can look neater than having them scattered.
Use Repetition
Blend the old with the new by using a similar color palette between the two.
Blend Rustic with Refined
Opposites attract! Mixing rustic with refined creates a beautiful contrast.
Keep them accessible
Vintage pieces with character should be accessible for you to enjoy!
Pay Attention to Scale
Keep furniture similar in visual weight to create a balance.
The 80/20 Rule
If you need a guide, the 80/20 rule can help you balance. Using 20% antiques will help keep your home from looking like an antique store.
Have Fun With it
Don't overthink it. If you love antiques, throw all rules out the window and experiment with what makes you happy!
