All fashion trends tend to come back sooner or later and so do the trends in furniture\u00a0. These days one of the most popular decors that\u2019s hitting it big is the vintage modern furniture design. It appeared in the first half of the 20th century and has never really gotten out of trend. What makes it so special? Mid-century modern furniture is all about clean lines, minimalism and lack of embellishments of all kinds. It\u2019s simple, often with curved lines, and all in all looks just posh. Here are a few ideas on how to use vintage chairs\u00a0<\/a>,tables and other antiques in the design of your home.<\/p>\n

Always remember about the colors<\/h3>\n

Mid-century modern furniture designers<\/a><\/strong> have often used subtle neutral tones and a darker palette than those of modern times. There may also be quite a few accent colors that are saturated and bright. All this gives you the opportunity to experiment with vintage furniture in a modern setting. Just remember the golden 60-30-10 rule. Which means that your room needs to have 60% of the color that is the most dominant, 30% of any secondary color you choose, and only 10% of some bright saturated color that is used as an accent color.<\/p>\n

Experiment with vintage modern furniture<\/h3>\n

If you have an interesting piece of vintage furniture, think about putting it in the room where it doesn\u2019t belong. Of course a gorgeous vintage bed () is meant for a bedroom\u00a0 only, but things like stools<\/a><\/strong>, chairs, tables and what not can be moved to different locations creating a fresh new look for your home.<\/p>\n

Create a gorgeous statement piece<\/h3>\n

Mid-century modern furniture reproductions as well as real antiques can be used to add some oomph to your room. Whether it is bedroom furniture\u00a0<\/a><\/strong>\u00a0or antique pieces for dining rooms and living rooms think about using one gorgeous piece of furniture as your statement piece. The \u201cshock\u201d effect is achieved by mixing mid-century furniture\u00a0with modern styled pieces. Put a huge antique table in the center of your room and it will draw all the attention, as well as make the room seem bigger than it really is!<\/p>\n

It\u2019s all about the balance<\/h3>\n

All your vintage furniture pieces, whether they are being mixed with other antiques or with modern-looking pieces, should look cohesive in the overall design of your room. How to do this? First of all think about the color scheme, and then \u2013 about similar patterns that will unite different furniture pieces\u00a0 and make them look relevant.<\/p>\n

Wood always gives a vintage feel<\/h3>\n

It\u2019s time to come back to the real wood with its unique patterns and clean lines. Modern pressed wood is one thing, but vintage wooden furniture made with oak, rosewood, teak and walnut can transform the look of your whole room by adding really chic atmosphere and a feel of a mid-century salon where writers and painters used to gather to discuss culture and creative<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
