The Vintage Home

Meer over het boek

With the increasing popularity of the vintage trend, worn and faded items have gained value. The quality of old furniture, objects, and textiles is superior, and shabby chic serves as both a beautiful and ecological counterpoint to mass production. Since vintage decor is not limited to the design trends of a single era, it offers limitless possibilities for all types of homes. Vintage homes showcase hundreds of different rooms, each created with furniture from various decades, resulting in imaginative and unique interiors. Many of these are stylistically pure, while others blend different design languages and eras in delightful combinations. The book delves into the secrets of vintage decor in detail, accompanied by inspiring photographs, and explores its possibilities in the main rooms of the home. It also presents five key subgenres of vintage - rustic romance, boudoir, retro, urban, and modern - and offers guidance on where to search for second-hand items. Additionally, it emphasizes the finishing touches created with lamps, cushions, curtains, and lovely old decorative pieces. These cherished heirlooms or thrift store finds make a home unique - there is no other like it.
