TRADITIONAL INTERIOR DESIGN
Classic and timeless style inspired by 18th and 19th-century European decor. Exemplifies elegance and comfort with the use of antique or vintage furniture pieces and regal decorative accessories, classic art pieces, symmetry and other design elements that are rich with history. Characteristics of Traditional interior design:
-
Built-in cabinetry
-
Ornate mill-work with curvilinear designs such as wall moldings, crown moldings and architectural elements
-
Use of neutral colors for the walls and vibrant tones for the furnishings
-
Rich and luxurious textiles such as velour and cashmere. Fine and comforting fabrics such as cotton, wool and linen.
-
Complex patterns using hardwood flooring in medium and dark hues such as walnut and mahogany, as well as raw ceramics, mosaic tiles and colored burnt cement
Traditional Interior design reflects historical design elements and is perfect for the client that wants to incorporate classic art, antiques and pieces with historical elements, statement furniture pieces, strong symmetry and design consistency.
While traditional design uses rich sophisticated dark colors and strong wood finishes, the most visually important characteristic is the light color tones used on walls which serves to accentuate the rich dark furniture and decorative accessories. The existing interior and exterior complex architectural details, as well as built-ins, ornate wall moldings and coffered ceilings of each space will also play a key role in determining the final interior design.
