Mix and Match Style

The art of blending styles.

It is risky, it is about combining, reusing and incorporating different textures, colours, materials and trends in the same space, always seeking balance and a sense of wholeness.

If you like bold and seductive spaces, you will love this style!

Although it is an invitation to break guidelines, to free the imagination from monotony and to play with different elements, this goes far beyond bringing together different textures, colors, materials and shapes in the same space, this requires our commitment to harmony because precisely one of the dangers of this style is falling into chaos and disorder.

The magical thing about implementing this style is that it turns decoration into a game that allows you to transform spaces with small details, a game in which everything is possible and the goal is to create a room with personality and a soul of its own.

It is important to be very clear about what you want to project in the place you are designing, and thus guarantee the success of the combinations that are made.

Always keep in mind that with a successful mix your decoration will be unique and authentic.

Let's talk about the mid century style

A style inspired by postwar lifestyles and mid-20th century design.

In these spaces there is no place for useless ornaments but rather for light and everything that can make the environment feel fresh

Mid century living room

We have to make it clear that simplicity and functionality are far from making these spaces boring. One of the characteristics of this trend is the use of bright colors in certain focal points of the space to break with the monotony. Usually these accents in the space are created by upholstered furniture, cushions, curtains or valances. It all depends on the story you want to tell!

Completely functional and minimalist furniture

Likewise, the lightness that characterizes this style is not an impediment when it comes to integrating geometric patterns. However, you must be careful not to overcrowd the space. Both the bold colors and geometric patterns are delicate accents that energize your room without overshadowing the simplicity of the MID CENTURY.

Why should you reupholster your old furniture?

Just as each place tells its own story, each piece that is part of it has its own wealth.
