Retro and Back, Again!


Retro and Back, Again!


Have you ever felt a sense of décor vu (the feeling that you have seen a design trend before)? The rise of retro style boasts colorful, fun choices and interesting patterns. Whether you want to go big and bold or add simple accents and pops of color, turn back time in your home with design blasts from the past.

It’s No Accent-dent

It’s No Accent-dent

Bust out your fringe or patterned blankets and relax on your leather bean bag or cube-shaped chair as you soak in the beauty of retro déco. While buying a tuft headboard is one option for ushering in the atmosphere of yester-year, keep your hard earned money in your wallet by instead placing brass lamps around your home and hanging paintings with geometric designs on the walls. Brighten up any room with blooming flowers and leafy plants, placing them in colorful vases and using striped or circularly-patterned drapes on your windows.

Back to the Furniture

Cozy up with oversized furniture, velvet chairs and pintuck pillows to invite retro décor into your home. Make a statement by turning your kitchen into a pseudo-diner with a corner booth, round table and metal-framed chairs, or keep it simple by placing couches and seats with buttoned backrests in your Family Room. Add rounded or asymmetrical, rectangular wooden shelves to any room to bring in a flair of the glory days. Turn back the clock with wooden-framed sofas paired with color-block, fabric chairs.

For an industrial-style twist, grab aluminum forked chairs, a slate-colored table, leather couches or brass lighting fixtures to create a vintage take on the modern-masculine design.

Déjà Hue

Rejuvenate your home with pops of vibrant color and mix-matched hues! Whether you paint an accent wall entirely avocado green or place lavender, violet and lime pillows on your couch, the retro style embraces the contrast of bold hues and neutral tones to create a playful atmosphere. Liven up your kitchen with a teal oven and microwave, or bring the funkiness to your bathroom by hanging pink, wine and orange towels with a matching rug or geometrically-patterned shower curtain. To create a simple retro look in your bedroom, roll out a gray striped or patterned rug on the floor and add yellow, steel and pink, polka-dotted pillows to your bed.

Vintage, retro, nostalgia – whatever you call it, the styles of yester-year are whimsically timeless and easily fashioned to fit any preference and home.
