[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]We bought a Victorian house (which I love) but I also have a more transitional style. For example, we have been in a lot of homes in London in which the houses were “modernized” but still were able to keep the Victorian charm. Any insta or webpages for inspiration for this?[/quote] I think the contrast of modern furniture and old architecture can look really stunning. I prefer that to matching period furniture to houses 100%, which tends to look like a museum. A rule of thumb for this look is 2/3 modern or contemporary furnishings, 1/3 older. Things like traditional rugs are always good for mixing with modern furniture.[/quote]
