What is your interior design style?

Anonymous
Is it modern? Country? Eclectic? Or do you get most of your furniture from one store that has the look you like?

Eclectic. I have pieces that belonged to my Great-Grandparents and Grandparents. I have a bakers rack that is from my bedroom when I was growing up. I have hand me down furniture from my Mom from when she moved and redesigned. I have furniture I purchased from my first apartment. I have furniture that I got at Pottery Barn and Crate and Barrel. The styles are all over the place, but work well together. I think as long as your proportions are on scale, then you can do a lot with a room. Oh, and color too.

Spare and modern, with textured neutrals and nature-inspired prints and shapes.

Big comfy couches and easy chairs (think Pottery Barn, not Lazyboy), classic tables and bookcases in darker woods, lots of photos and watercolors of local buildings and landscapes. Not a lot of tchotchkes (spelling?), but some family photos on the piano and mantel. Lots and lots of books. I'm all about comfort - comfy couches you could fall asleep on, sturdy coffee table that you can put your feet on. Warmer neutral paint colors instead of stark white. And about a million toys for my 3-yo.

I like the store Random Harvest - great mix of beautiful pieces. They also have a head designer you can hire for help with ideas/layout etc.

I call our current design aesthetic: post-fisher price industrial plant accident.

this made me laugh.

I call mine: Nova middle class modern but comfortable catalogy chic, with a few clunkers that could be fixed by a handyman if only I had the time or money.

Traditional but uncluttered. The store I like, and buy some stuff from, is the Kellogg Collection. Would buy more if I could afford it.

We just bought our house and were told it is an arts and crafts style home with pottery barn finishes inside. I think that means neutral paint, white trim, and hardwood floor. But, the house itself has a lot of charm-- stained glass, moldings, exquisite bannisters, built in shelving. We shop the most at crate and barrel. Our furniture style has been called contemporary. We love the reclaimed woods, and we have dabbled in the mid century look, but just barely. We are just now finishing the kitchen in a white modern cottage/farmhouse look. I love "this old house" magazines.

We do too. We have several pieces from them: antiques or "almost antiques". I guess our style is eclectic because we have a mix of textures, wood colors, etc.

Check out the Kellog Collection and you will see mine.

Transitional. We like traditional style spaces with more modern furnishings. We like more traditional crown moldings, chair rails, kitchen cabinetry, chandeliers, etc, but we fill spaces with a lot of European style clean line furnishings.

We're youngish and so we still have a lot of handmedowns from parents and IKEA stuff from our first place. I'd say the stuff we bought ourselves is a fair mix of Pottery Barn/Crate and Barrel pieces and Danish modern stuff. Our art comes from our travels and is stuff done by friends and I try to fill in a lot of the gaps with that.
