[quote=Anonymous]Sounds like a perfect contender for transitional style. I have a 1940s cape cod with original touches throughout but took a more contemporary approach to our renovation while still including nods to its history (solid wood two panel doors, base boards, an original archway).We added drywall returns with honed stone window sills, modern chefs kitchen with quartzite waterfall counters, our bathroom tile work is more classic looking with white subway tile but I added Moroccan inspired tile floor, bright blue double vanity in the kids bathroom. Black windows. Just keep a couple of common threads throughout that are modern/vintage. I think I read somewhere that transitional recommends 3/4 one style and 1/4 another mixed in. Or something similar with the ratios…whatever blends well! We have a lot of vintage furniture with some contemporary pops thrown in.[/quote]
