Farmhouse-
“If you are drawn to a farmhouse style, you appreciate items that are homemade and authentic. You appreciate the story behind a piece, however, you don’t want it to feel ostentatious, but rather grounded and humble. Instead of choosing pieces with embellishment and added detail, you prefer the inherent texture of aged materials.”
Modern-
“You are connected to a space that is paired down to the essentials. You prefer clean lines in your furniture, cabinets, and light fixtures. The modernist warms up a space with texture and textiles, but isn’t afraid of abstraction. For you, the beauty is in the simplicity of your space. Everyday items that are displayed are practical, not excessive. The comforts you surround yourself with tend to be more focused on form and function.”
Rustic-
“This styles takes it’s cues from nature. A rustic approach involves many of the same principals as farmhouse, with a particular focus on texture and materials. This style makes a statement, but not with color or embellishment. Instead, it is more about organic elements, like raw wood beams, natural stone accents, and organic hardwoods.”
Industrial-
“This style shares the fundamentals of rustic, but with an urban flare. You appreciate materials in their raw, unfinished form, but instead of being natural, these elements include things such as exposed ductwork and concrete floors. The industrialist is often innovative in thinking and will repurpose items to serve new functions.”
Traditional
“The traditionalist is attracted to historic details and classic shapes. When it comes to a piece of furniture, you enjoy seeing traces of adornment and embellishment. When you walk into a room, you want to know the story behind the time-honored pieces you see. Architectural elements, such as heavy trimwork, paneled doors, and built-in cabinetry are hallmarks. If this is predominantly your style, you are likely to approach the design of your home using tried-and-true techniques rather than attempting to push the envelope or try the unexpected.”
Boho-
“Boho style focuses on objects with a story that are rich with character and detail, but expressed in a more casual, free-form way. This style doesn’t rely on historical standards as the traditionalist does. It strives to be vibrant, irreverent, and quirky. If you identify with this look, you are typically drawn to rich colors, bold textures, and mismatched patterns. You enjoy organized clutter with the mindset that layers and collections are indicators of a well-loved home.”
