Old World Decor
This articles encompasses the the history of Old World Decor and how it is being used throughout our design trend market.
Old World décor, European in origin, goes as far back as the 12th century, but was most popular in the 16th and 17th centuries. This includes Italian and French Renaissance styles, as well as the Late-Medieval and Gothic designs from throughout Europe.
It is distinguished by the overall ambience of a rich, elegant feel of antiquity which fills the room with a warm atmosphere of a Mediterranean Villa or centuries-old retreat. The Old World look is a myriad of European styles, but at its heart is a palette of deep, rich hues with a combination of materials like stone. Old World styling need not require the look of a particular period. It can be a blend of periods for a European atmosphere that hints at centuries long past - the times of, say, Shakespeare and Da Vinci.
