Hi guys, hope you all are doing well. Whether you are a fan of esthetic from past decades, collect ancient objects, or simply like to get out of conventional, maybe you have already thought to make a retro or vintage d\u00e9cor<\/em>, but do you know which is the difference? Do you know how to combine styles between them or among other styles? I am going to clarify these questions here in this post.<\/em><\/p>\n

What the characteristics of a vintage d\u00e9cor<\/em><\/h2>\n

The main characteristic of vintage d\u00e9cor<\/em> is the originality of this age, to be considered in this classification the furniture and objects must belong to decades between 1920 and 1960. What was produced before this period is not vintage anymore, but just old. Those which were used in the 70ths and 80ths is considered a new vintage.<\/em><\/p>\n

They are original pieces, for acquiring them you must resort to an antiquary or a garage selling, as they are rarities, they usually have high prices. Other ways to acquire vintage d\u00e9cor<\/em> and object are a heritage from relatives, besides coming full of history, they have an enormous sentimental value.<\/p>\n

For compounding a vintage d\u00e9cor<\/em> , we utilize sober colors on the wall, like pastel tons. The idea is to transmit the sensation that the color faded over time, besides that, these clear tons will get to highlight the unique furniture and objects.<\/p>\n

Small crochet towels, grandma's tea set, record player, black and white portraits with old frames, coffee grinder, those advertising boards from the past, will beautifully compose the vintage<\/em> environment.<\/p>\n

What the characteristics of a retro decoration<\/h2>\n

The word comes from French r\u00e9trospectif (retrospective), something related to the past, in this manner, the best definition to this style of decoration is that it is a re-lecture, they are new furniture and objects, with actual technology, but inspired in past decades.<\/p>\n

Retro is irreverent and fun, there are many options that go from the checkered coating, perfect to kitchen\u2019s floor, to modern home appliances with a nostalgic and colorful design. See some beautiful examples:<\/p>\n
