Far from old-fashioned, traditional interior styling can be incredibly versatile. You probably love ornamentation and dark wood tones with rich color palettes and a variety of layered textures. Look for inspiration in Victorian buildings, antique stores, and historic homes.

Traditional

The contemporary interior style is current, modern and constantly evolving. It is much more focused on the “here and now” than on adhering to a particular design aesthetic. You probably enjoy clean, unadorned, maybe even minimalist spaces. You mostly like decoration that also serves a purpose, like a wooden stool or a vase for flowers. Look for inspiration in modern or street art, popular interior design magazines, and newly built neighborhoods.

Contemporary

From steel and stone to brick and brass – industrial interior style is all about raw and exposed materials. You probably like the bran door trend and things like exposed brick. Let your color choices be guided by the authentic colors of raw materials, and look to find inspiration in places like restaurants or apartments that were converted from old commercial spaces.

Industrial

Characterized by clean, simple lines, pops of blues and greens, and plenty of wood and rusty metals, mid-century modern is a design style with definite staying power. This style is one of the biggest trends right now, taking original 1950's and 60's ideas and modernizing them for today's market. Look for pieces that are organic and simple and find your inspiration from American architects like Frank Lloyd Wright.

Mid-Century Modern

Break the rules and have a little fun with your decorating style – that’s what the eclectic style is all about. But it’s important to maintain a sense of balance - the very best eclectic interiors are a cohesive blend of old, new, color, texture, and pattern. Look for your inspiration in any kind of art that speaks to you. Every eclectic space is unique!

Eclectic

Farmhouse decor is often referred to as a style that introduces rusticness, warmth, traditional and chic. If you've watched an HGTV show in the last decade, you've probably seen this style! You likely love a classic look with rustic and cozy accents. Look for inspiration in places like Joanna Gaines designs and popular design magazines.
