I’ve just discovered your channel while looking for inspiration for bringing some character to the new build we’ll be moving into next month. I was giddy today to see that you had a new video! You’ve given me such inspiration and encouragement to design our new home in a way that feels and true to us. Our current home is a 2006 suburban ranch had some rustic industrial touches added to it by the previous owner, then our taste added some rustic/traditional/farmhouse vibes. The new build we are moving to is decidedly more modern and I was feeling so stuck. Your method has given me such new eyes for our new space and I am excited to lean into our new farmhouse/transitional craftsman/mid-mod aesthetic!
Congrats on the new place! New builds can definitely be tricky but once you start layering in your personality and flair they can be so charming 🧡
Yes! Where have you been.. I have needed this. I am Modern Scandinavian style. The exterior of the home is very modern
Alexandria, where have been? I feel like i have found a gem. Please do more of these videos. One of my friends is struggling to combine old Hollywood glam with post modern. Ty
Thank you!! I will add these to my list 🧡
I would love to see an English traditional mixed with midcentury modern and touches of a more masculine leaning modern organic please!
Just found your channel and love your content so far! I’ve been meshing together mid-century modern, glam (but not tacky mirrored furniture and fake crystals; more bougie like marble, velvet, and gold), and abstract art. I also have a little bit of vintage (like knickknacks from my grandma. I have her grandfather clock but it’s at my parent’s house.) Lots of white with bold pops of saturated color (teals, aquas, pinks mainly, with some yellow and greens.) I’m loving walnut wood right now and just bought a table and chairs.
I have to work hard not to get caught up in things getting too matchy-matchy l because I’m so drawn to the same things. Would love to see your take on this layering.
Trends I used to see everywhere was the jungle leaf wallpaper - especially in the water closet and Pierre Jeanneret chair dupes! Not so much now although the WC is still designated as a space in which to go wild with your design flare. Current trends that I see are anything wavy edged and bobbin furniture especially mirrors. How to spot the next trend - well I suggest that you take inspiration from the 1990s they're due for a return.
Completely agree! Everything eventually comes back in style one way or another.
Such a good video! I actually consider my own interior design style as Postmodern/English Country cottage, so it was interesting to see how you break down and combine similar style movements.
Yay! So happy you were able to see some similar inspiration, I think postmodern works great with these more maximalist styles.
Good luck !. 🙏🤞 !.
This is so good!
Great examples, a fun game. Here's a few:
Industrial + Bohemian (not Boho) + Deco
Memphis + Miami Vice (80s Florida Deco Glam) + MCM
Wabi Sabi/Japandi + Industrial + English Cottage
Ooooh! Thanks! These will be some very cool pairings 🤩
I just discovered you're channel during the night. Wow where have you been... Lol.
I love so many styles girl! The femininity of cottage core and french provincial. I love light neutrals but mixed with patterns of stipes, gingham, plaids and florals. I also love the darker blacks, browns and greens of dark academia and I collect old world or vintage pieces of decor. ( Antique olive jars and stuff). Also I love some modern touches too! I'm all over the place girl!
Thank you so much!
Thanks for watching!! I’ll add this to my list, it can be challenging mixing a light and bright style with something more moody but it can definitely be done 🤗
@@alexandriaparis ty so much. Maybe darkness in paint/molding and some of the wood. Then like lighter in fabric. I’m excited either way to see what you come up with!
I feel like i cant escape modern farmhouse and boho chic. Im 55yo and have a classic transitional style. I guess its a boring blank canvas, but i can stay up to date by accessorizing here and there with inexpensive touches of a "trend" . I guess thats my 10% . Its safe and i wont feel like I invested tons of $ in a trend that will be dated
You’re a great speaker, and you explain things really well. I just bought a (real) farmhouse out in the country on ten acres and would love to blend “rustic country” with Belgian and equestrian styles. A great hindrance to my effort is my partner’s love for cherry and walnut furniture lol-and he has a lot of it…I hope to be able to change out some of these for whitewashed pieces.
Thanks so much!! I LOVE these styles, I’ll add them to my list! Congrats on the new home 🧡
Thank you! I look forward to your new videos and binging the existing ones. ☺️
I looove this series I’m surprised why this has never really been covered much before by anyone! It’s like a game 😁 layering design styles are my favourite thing. and celebrates the different layers or sides of our personalities and the things we love ❤ i was always so enchanted by Anthropologie when I was younger; they do layering so well with boho, cottage core, post modern etc. Although I’ve outgrown that free spirited aesthetic and prefer more classic or timeless styles now, I still have a soft spot for it. 🥰
HAHA! It really is a game, I love finding so many different pairings! I totally agree, it’s so nice to see different sides of your personality in your home.
New subscriber. Please do more of these. And quickly, lol. Just bought a condo and I want it eclectic. One channel said you can't mix styles. There was some sort of rule. Argh, I forgot what it was but it was Lisa Holt I believe!
Congrats on the new place! I’m hoping to add to this series once a month so stay tuned ✨ layering styles works so well to curate your home and create the perfect eclectic mix!
@@alexandriaparis Ok great. But what if you like a bunch of different styles? Like should you only pick 3?
For my bedroom I'm going for that earthy kind of Japandi look. However I have a vintage dresser that is painted charcoal.
Eclectic is more my style though...as long as it isn't too cluttered.
Great ideas! I'd like to pair industrial japandi and a little boho but keep it quite minimal while also incooperating vintage pieces. I hope it's not too much to ask. I'm allergic to wood and plastic and all wood veneer or similar. Also can't have any rugs or pieces that v can't be washed easily. If too much please just consider the styles without my restrictions i would really love to see it.
Thank you! I will try my best! Industrial and Japandi seem to be a common request, I’ll definitely have to add this to the list.
FUN!
Great ideas! Please could you help me, I would really like to combine Industrial style (60%) with French cottage (30%) and Mid century modern. Thanks a lot.
Maybe French country & American colonial styles?
Fantastic video. I just found you and I am hooked. What would Parisian + Modern Traditional + Spanish elements look like?
OOH! Love this mix! I’ll add it to my list 🧡
Can you show how to update things with a chocolate brown sofa and loveseat? I see all white sofas everywhere and that just isn't practical for us with a dog and grandchildren, plus we like our dark classic sofas, but we do want to update and lighten our space, so wondering what you might suggest?
Chocolate brown is actually in style you don’t have to do a thing. It’s a neutral color so if you wanted to give it more personality throw pillows or a blanket is always a good start.
@@toyaJM thank you!
@@CareersbyJenn No problem! I searched for a chocolate sofa for over a year that was affordable or vintage and I had to give up I’m super jealous you have one lol
Hello! I just found your channel & I love this video... I'm going to watch more. Usually I like so many things... You think it is possible to mix Real Boho not "Scandinavian Boho" + Mediterranean/Provenzal + Industrial? I know it's too much hahaha and I also like wabi sabi, japandi, coastal... All with biophilic design? Thanks!
Love an eclectic mix 🤩 I’ll try my best to find some inspo for this mashup!
I haven't seen this! Thanks for your response! You're so nice! Im going to watch your new video ❤
Hi! Just found you. I like cottage (with color) but I also love western and muted floral colors. Would it be wrong of me to add easy to keep clean🙄?
LOL “easy to keep clean” is essential! I’ll add your styles to my list!
I would have described your home as modern farm style. No?
