Design tip:
Start with a statement sofa. This robin’s egg blue sectional certainly does the trick! Let the furniture pop by layering neutral tones around it. Think: Natural wood, plus creams, greys and blacks.
Styling trick:
You can never go wrong with a neutral armchair. This one complements the robin’s egg blue sectional, which is the “hero” furniture in this room. Refresh the armchair each season by adding a cushion in an on-trend pattern or print.
Add ambience:
Light up your living room with a gourd lamp. This curvy, period-perfect table lamp reinforces the modern-vintage aesthetic.
Try this:
Use a small-scale coffee table as a bench in the entryway. Like the other furnishings in this modern vintage space, this piece has tapered wooden legs. Leggy furniture promotes an airy, expansive look, making a room seem larger. (It’s also easier to catch every last dust bunny!)
