6 Basics to Decorate a Timeless Home

Isn’t that what we all seek? A decoration that remains stylish over time, that does not go out of style, and, above all, that you continue to like it. With these 6 tips, you get it for sure!

1. THE WALLS, BLANK

For a timeless look at home, start with your walls in mind. The best thing is that they become a blank canvas – never better said – so that they do not condition the rest of the decoration. Avoid weird, overly garish, or intense colors and opt for something more neutral. It is true that there are neutrals that can get tired or seem dirty, but with white, it will not happen to you. The white walls have many advantages.  

2. THAT THE WOOD IS NOT MISSING

There are materials that go hand in hand with that timeless feeling . And the wood on the floor is key. Now, avoid choosing the typical noble and dark woods of the most classic environments. One in much lighter tones is preferable , which will enhance the luminosity and will not detract from the warmth. Some are ash, beech, light oak or fir. And it doesn’t have to be wood, there are many materials that imitate it with a super-realistic finish (ceramic or vinyl are some).

3. AND THAT THEY DO NOT TOUCH THE FIBER

There are more materials that will help you achieve a timeless style in decoration besides wood. Also natural materials such as fiber, stone or marble will help you to achieve this and that your home remains stylish over time. It could well be some architectural detail in stone, a fiber carpet or a table with a marble top – and a more modern cut to compensate.

4. MIX AND WIN

A timeless style is not synonymous with boring or flat. Quite the opposite. Miura how it has been done in this room: the super – classic lines of the chesterfield contrast with the turquoise of the upholstery and the cube table with contemporary lines . Even the lamp, with certain art deco touches and reminiscent of the happy 20. Mix styles and you will see how your living room sets foot in the present while keeping your eyes on the past.

5. DECORATE WITH THE COLORS OF NATURE

If you want your living room to remain immutable, attractive and unalterable in terms of style, choose accessories in the colors that nature gives us in its most delicate aspect. Stones, whites, sands, tan or even neutral greens and blues are good allies for accessories that will last almost forever.

6. IN THE KITCHEN, BET ON WHITE AND AVOID ARTIFICE

A kitchen in pristine, pristine white will remain timeless over the years and will not go out of style. Even more so if you eliminate the handles and choose a push-type opening system or fingernails , which are not visible. These types of elements not only have a functional vocation, but also have many decorative nuances. The same with the kitchen fronts, better smooth.
