[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]My house is decorated like this (the main pic on this page is more fussy than most of this style). Key is I mix very modern pieces like modern art, modern light fixtures, modern sofas, and modern paint colors (white or greige walls) with vintage pieces. No one wants a vintage family room sofa from the 60s. If it was actually used, it would smell. I love the modern white sofas in performance fabric. I do have quite a few vintage chandeliers, but they're mixed in with newer pendants, drum lights, etc. "Modern" art is more pieces from the 1960s- present. I don't like still lifes or pasturals. Portraits and block art are some of my favorites.

Grandmillienial is very similar to Hollywood Regency in my mind. It's a descendant of that. I'm 33 and I've been loving bamboo furniture and Chinoiserie since I was a teenager. My grandma had beautiful 6ft tall Chinese vases and gorgeous mahogany furniture. [/quote]

nah Hollywood Regency has a pronounced glamour to it that Grandmillenial lacks. HR has a lot more glass and metals and hard edges mixed in. Grandmillenial is much frumpier, though it can be pretty.[/quote]
