Vintage is not antique or old anymore. It is called retro in this modern age. I personally see vintage style as charming, chic, classy, and romantic. Lamps, tables, sofas, chairs, mirrors, and other decorative accessories in this style have tons of details and character. Whereas, modern furniture and accessories are in general are simple and come in clean lines. When you carefully blend them, you can end up with a modern vintage room!
In these rooms below, I see a good balance in the overall design - a good mix of modern and vintage pieces where one does not overpower the other. In decor, balance is also created by visual equilibrium, meaning colors, textures, and patterns should symmetrically or asymmetrically create harmony in the room. There is also a huge advantage of mixing one or more styles - each softens the harshness of the other. This also allows you to create the room that reflects your interests, hobbies and collectibles that you have accumulated all through your life. With all that said, here's my round-up. Don't you think these rooms are sophisticated and modern, with a hint of vintage that makes it so special?
