How Can You Integrate Vintage Artwork Into Your Interior Design?
If you love antiques and vintage art, it is possible to have too many older pieces that will make your interior design feel out-dated. It’s important to incorporate the new with the old. Here are 3 tips to help you include vintage artwork in your interior design:
- Multiple Eras
- Mix the New & the Old
- Statement Pieces
1) Multiple Eras
You don’t have to stick with one era when decorating your home. Consider selecting pieces from multiple eras. The combination can create contrast and interest throughout your home. For instance, you can hang vintage art paintings above a modern, thin-legged dining table.
2) Mix the New & the Old
The minimalist style has been dominating interior design for a while now. You can definitely keep a home feeling simple, and minimalistic while incorporating vintage art. If your living room has a modern couch, add subtle antiques and vintage artwork throughout to create a timeless vibe.
3) Statement Pieces
Many antique paintings have beautiful golds either on the frame or within the painting. Bring out the gold by adding gold statement pieces in your design. Imagine a golden framed 18th-century painting on the wall with a gold chandelier or a bronze-toned table lamp. Statement pieces can help draw the eye to the vintage wall art.
Pro Tip: Cool paint colors on your walls can make copper tones in your vintage art pop.
There Are No Rules
Don’t limit yourself to any design boundaries. If you dream it, then design it. There are no rules when it comes to incorporating vintage artwork into your home.
