Interior Decorating Themes
There are a variety of decorating themes from formal to informal
and everything in between. Which one best describes your
decorating style?
Formal Traditional Furnishings and designs from the Renaissance,
Baroque, Early and Late Georgian, Federal, Greek Revival and
Victorian eras. This style is shown with fine furnishings,
elegant, refined and exquisite wall coverings, elaborate
moldings, formal window treatments and Oriental rugs.
Informal Traditional The same eras as above but this style has
less refined versions of furnishings. There are more touchable
elements, more earthy colors, and some urban archaeology without
restoration is common. This style is comfortable and inviting.
American Country This style holds furnishings from the 17th
century through the present, all simple with the appearance of
hand-crafted work. Two versions are popular today: Upscale
Country with the use of more tactile, comfortable elements and
very close to Informal Traditional but with a clearly country
theme in all the furnishings; and Rustic Country, which sports a
reused, recycled quality. The wall coverings and window
treatments set the theme and the furnishings have a
just-found-it-at-the-antique-market feel.
Country French This style is exhibited in Classic Rococo,
Neoclassic or Empire-inspired country furnishings. Wall
coverings include florals, ticking, toile, and moirés depending
on the level of formality.
Arts & Crafts This simple style is also known as Early Modern or
Organic Modern. The era focuses on hard, stained oak furniture
with simple, straight
lines.
International Modern This is a look of ultra simplicity, hard
lines, and smooth surfaces contrasted with abstract patterns and
unusual textures.
Environmental Designs in this theme contain colors, textures and
very subtle patterns of the earth.
Romantic Victorian This style still is a favored theme for rooms
with lots of pattern featuring English garden florals in dreamy
colors. Both fabric and wall coverings can be patterned, and
clutter decorating - especially with accessories - is part of
this look.
Ethnic and Primitive This masculine approach has many faces from
African to the American Southwest, from the lodge-look to the
South Seas. Heavy or tactile textures coupled with patterns that
are charming because of their lack of sophistication fit here.
Fabric and Wall Covering Themes This is a wonderful way to
decorate - by selecting a great fabric or wall covering that
inherently features a theme. Some examples include sea and
shore, sports, outdoor recreation, kitchen or domestic elements,
juvenile elements, feminine floral themes, exotic designs from
far away lands, and more.
