If you’re looking for interior decoration inspiration, incorporating some select period features is a great place to start. From the splendour of the Victorian era to the fun and functional designs of the 60s and 70s, there are some striking vintage ideas out there that never cease to charm. In this week’s blog, we take inspiration from three classic time-travelling period styles that are easy to recreate. Read on to see which style appeals to your own personal taste.
Sixties Chic
There’s a reason Mad Men was an instant hit with its stylised 60s backdrop. You could also take inspiration from mid-century interior designs to create a room that is eclectic and elegant all at once. Even just a couple of smaller vintage pieces, such as a retro telephone or vintage curtains can be paired with modern furnishings to get the mixed-and-matched look. Check out Mirror Images’ stylish High Gloss and Acrylic range if this is a look you feel inspired by.
Regency Rooms
It is a truth universally acknowledged that a Jane Austen style room is one you could take pride in. Regency era style is about harmony and symmetry; space and light. At Mirror Image Fitted Furniture we have a wide range of fitted furnishings to accommodate any taste. Who needs Mr Darcy for that sense of luxury when you can explore our Premier range to create your own bespoke regency inspired room?
Viva Victoriana
For a boudoir teeming with charm, why not allow yourself to be seduced by the elegance of the Victorian style? Both romantic and traditional, Victorian inspired decor incorporates dark woods such as mahogany, with sumptuous style that is perfect for the master or the guest bedroom. If you prefer something less ostentatious, consider combining colour on your walls with a lush carpet or rug in addition to wooden furnishings to create a room that has comfort as its focal point. Our Solid Wood range would be a great place to start, whether you’re considering a Victorian influence on a grand or a subtle scale.
