]]>In this second article of our 3 part guide, we look into the different aspects of vintage and modern interior designs and find out more about the personalities of their homeowners.
VINTAGE
Vintage interior designs appeal to a unique lot who may find their penchant for old eclectic pieces unappreciated by others. Well-designed vintage homes have idiosyncratic charms that bring their guests on a walk through history as they embrace (or attempt to embrace) the coarse wrinkled leather and chipped edges of well-worn furniture with minimal refurbishment or touching up.
Cosy with an air of elegance, vintage interior design style homes exhibit an alluring and distinctive old school chic atmosphere.
MODERN
Modern interior designs are often confused with contemporary styles. Although they have overlapping characteristics, modern designs refer to an era-specific (1920s-1950s) design style, often termed mid-century modern. On the other hand, contemporary designs are dynamic and constantly change with the current trends.
Modern styles stem from the idea to build for function with sleek and spacious interiors. Clutter is frowned upon with modern furniture focused on clean lines,polished curves and smooth surfaces.
