1. Antique books
Vintage books add visual interest and incite intellectual curiosity.
2. Fresh flowers
No more dusty potpourri—a posy of flowers adds instant life to any room.
3. Cozy velvet cushions
Comfort is paramount. We love these down-filled red velvet cushions.
4. Collections
A necessary addiction, collections (e.g., old-fashioned oil lamps) add
a personal touch.
5. Painted metal
From a side table to an antique daybed, painted metal is the perfect element to contrast warm wooden antiques.
6. Wallpaper
The right wallpaper can add personality where there was none before.
7. A touch of white
To prevent rooms from looking dull, break up the spaces with white
(try wainscot or a singular piece of furniture).
8. Display shelves
Line up collections to create visual height.
9. Bold colours
A hit of red, for instance, creates both impact and a focal point.
10. Wooden floors
Keep the floors spare to give the furnishings room to breathe.
