The design horizon is privy to changes in an overwhelming number of trends. Each year, the old is replaced with the new, only to be replaced again with newer and sometimes more elaborate trends the following year. Amidst these changing trends, how can we find a home design that is timeless, and furniture to compliment it?

 

Despite what these changing trends might suggest, some things never change. The same, Hellenic design that once adorned the streets of Rome can be seen in many of today’s finest architectural pieces. The charms and colors of deep, rich hardwoods are another touch of simplicity that never goes out of style.

How to create timeless design

Timeless design is not preoccupied with trends. In actuality, these designs spend more effort ignoring trends than it does abiding by them. Forget the new color schemes, the grandiose couches, or the newest kitchen set sold at Ikea. Get back to the basics.

Revel in clean designs, simple lines, and in the honesty that quality furniture provides to give your home the timeless look that you are searching for.

Why quality furniture is timeless

There’s a reason why quality furniture is seen as timeless. It has a little something to do with functionality, and a lot to do with design. True craftsmen invest in the pieces they make, imbuing each chair, table and set with an attention to detail, functionality and design. Quality furniture speaks honestly about the intentions of the home, the maker, and the buyer. It is proportionate, durable, and yes – beautiful.

But this beauty comes from its simplicity, its ability to be adapted into any room of the home while looking like it belongs.
