Mixing the old with the new

When it comes to interior design style one should always think out of the box. There are so many ways to define one’s taste by creating a magnificent living space. One just needs to be creative and stylish. With numerous ideas floating around, one needs to take steps to create the type of home that he/she really wants.
The vintage/antique style is a great way of creating an environment that is comfortable and easy to live with. The style is all about returning to items and ideas that have a past and have stood the test of time. It is a look of yester-years and people have started loving it.
Most people tend to play safe and think good design is primarily about matching colors and tones. But one needs to be creative with home interior design styles and find ways to be individual and not be afraid of experimenting. 
According to Parushni Aggarwal, Founder and creative director of Studio Creo, Antique looking decorative items and furniture break the monotony. People have started incorporating odd furniture pieces of furniture like unfinished arm chair, clocks and mirror in their homes. People prefer buying actual items and not their replicas because they think it’s an investment.

To get this look, one can mix together the old with the new and can change the entire interiors with antique furniture and decorative items. Pieces that look like they have been taken directly from the era in the last century mixed with a few shabby accessories along with some worn out looking items complete the whole antique look.
