![How to Effectively Invest in Cryptocurrencies [A Step-by-Step Guide]](https://todaynews.co.uk/wp-content/uploads/2022/05/crypto-360x180.jpg)
In the modern age, there are all kinds of home aesthetics to consider. So many, in fact, that it can be hard to choose which one you’d like to incorporate into your own home.
One of the lesser-known interior design aesthetics that’s been starting to come back into fashion is the neo-traditional aesthetic. This aesthetic can also be known as the modern traditional interior design aesthetic.
This kind of design is popular for those who want to modernize their traditional aesthetic or for those who love the charm of something ornate in an overarching contemporary home style.
There’s no one way to populate a home with furniture and features that will give it a stereotypical neo-traditional style, so today, we’ll be looking at features that can help you achieve this aesthetic. It’ll be up to you to decide what’ll work best for your own home.
Let’s begin!
Start With The Radiator
The radiator is a fixture that is often swept aside for more interesting home furniture or fixtures. This is a shame, as the radiator can serve a very crucial stylistic role in the home as well as serving its purpose as a heat generator.
Radiators take up a lot of wall space and can be very noticeable in all kinds of living spaces. For this reason, choosing to pay attention to your radiators can turn a mundane, functional feature into a fashionable statement piece that can pull a room together.
For the neo-traditional aesthetic, in particular, it can be a great way to add some ornate fixtures into a room that can really set a tone or complement a modern-traditional theme.
Radiators such as cast iron radiators are ideal. There is a wide range of cast iron radiators with both modern and traditional stylistic features depending on the model you decide to go for.
Get Accent Chairs For Your Modern Traditional Style
Chairs are a great way to implement a more traditional feel to a room without imposing too much on the existing style. Chairs provide a great bridge between aesthetics and can elevate any space they are in.
This will, of course, depend on the room that you are decorating and furnishing. A dining room will have more opportunities to use ornate chairs to bridge your juxtaposed aesthetic in an complementary and pleasing way.
Other rooms such as the kitchen or bedroom would not benefit from accent chairs. Accent chairs can dominate certain spaces, especially spaces that are smaller or have less furniture.
They tend to complement bigger rooms better.
Re-Varnish Your Wooden Features
A cost-effective and simple way to change the feel and mood of a home is to re-varnish your wooden features. Using the right kind of varnish on wooden features can give the illusion of age, which can complement neo-traditional aesthetics very well.
Good features to think about re-varnishing could be tables, counters, or even flooring if you have solid wood flooring. If you do decide to re-varnish, it is often best to consult a carpenter to get the best kind of varnish for the job. They can also recommend what would work best for the style you want.
If you have a lot of wooden furniture, this is a great way to overhaul your home without too much work.
Invest In Stained Glass Window Features
Stained glass is another great option for those wanting to blend the modern and traditional aesthetics. Stained glass has always been associated with older, more archaic buildings, so it’s perfect to set that feel in your own home.
To blend a more contemporary style into your stained glass, you could consider abstract art stains or uniform colours to set the tone and aura of a room.
For example, you could use a light blue for your main room to give your main living space a bright, uplifting feel when natural light is abundant. Soft yellows also work well in this regard.
Stained glass may also seem like it’ll be expensive to implement, but you can always take a more cost-effective route and invest in a coloured film that can be applied to the inside of the window. This will have the same effect but won’t look as satisfying to the eye.
Add Paint Highlights And Accents
If deciding to re-paint your room to fit a neo-traditional aesthetic, you may want to consider highlights and accents. These are great to add some flair to your rooms. Minimalist lines painted to highlight mouldings or door carvings are a popular choice.
This can add some contemporary flair that isn’t too dominating for a room.
Summary
There are a lot of ways to forge a spectacular neo-traditional aesthetic, and there’s no one uniform way to accomplish a satisfying end result. It partly relies on what you like and what fuses well together.
Go out there and explore the aesthetic. You never know what you’ll find!
