How Do You Select Accessories Transitional Home Decor




Becoming Familiar with Transitional Design
Transitional Design is the newest style on the scene of the design world. The basis of this style is to breathe new life into traditionally styled rooms by giving a more straight lined modern feel to them while at the same time retaining a timeless, sophisticated feel. The color palette is usually a neutral one with carefully edited accessories to set off the room.
Selecting Home Decor Accessories
It is important to be selective in choosing accessories for your transitional room since there are not as many used in this style. You will want to select something that can handle all of the attention that will be received.
A few things to keep in mind:
Texture- When using a neutral color palette, texture plays a more significant role. Using something rusting with cleaned line pieces is a great idea. How about a wooden bowl filled with natural or organic materials?
Size- Since accessories are paired down for this style; it is great to use a large piece to create drama in the room. Consider a large scale piece of artwork but be sensitive to the scale of the room.
Artwork- Black and white artwork with white matting and a simple frame is a terrific choice with its clean lines. If you are trying to save money why not create your own digital artwork and express yourself at the same time.
Incorporate a few clean lined accessories into your classic rooms and get that fresh of-the-moment look.
