[quote=Anonymous]I don't know that it is on the way out as much as evolving. I agree with the pp who said look first to the architecture of the house. Among the major house styles there will be a few different design styles that will work. For example, I have a traditional white Victorian with black shutters. The floor plan resembles a colonial and it has the markings of an old house: Thick molding, French doors, transoms above some doors, wood floors, plaster walls in some rooms. The house can absorb a variety of traditional, transitional, grandmillenial, cottage, preppy and sort of 80's style. (My dining room is pink). It sings with color, symmetry, layers of some pattern (like in curtains). I could make it streamlined and use more modern furniture and paint it white. But it does better with color. [/quote]
