How To Pull Off A Great Transitional Interior Design

Posted by lawrencechapman143 on October 10th, 2019

Transitional design combines curved furnishings with straight-lined, lacquered finishes, making the room look equally masculine and feminine. It might seem difficult to achieve a cohesive look when you have to mix such opposing styles but if you know how to properly mesh them, you’ll certainly pull it off. And successful transitional design is achieved by seamlessly combining a mix of modern and traditional schemes. If you want to get a well-blended transitional look, search for good interior designers and decorators from Paris.
 
Few tips for a great interior transitional design

• l Stay neutral: Staying neutral with your color choice allows the lines of the furniture to take center stage.

• l Incorporate textural elements: Add textural elements such as wood, glass, lacquer, rattan, fabric, steel and metal.

• l Limit the use of accessories: Don’t confuse the eye by adding artful details through your mix of furnishings and fabrics.
   
  Ideas for mixing transitional elements room by room

• Dining room: In the dining room, you can use a modern dining table and chairs, however, upholster the chairs in a traditional fabric. Alternatively, you can also use traditional furnishings and offset them with modern lighting, such as steel pendants with exposed lightbulbs. 
   
• Bedroom: Upholster a tufted, curved headboard of a traditional element, with a steel-gray fabric of a more modern element. Or, you can also flank a traditional headboard with modern cube side tables and sleek metal lamps.
   
• Kitchen: If your kitchen cabinets have traditional elements or are already traditional in nature, and you don’t want to replace them, then go for a stronger hand with modern accessories. Just add contemporary design accessories such as pendant lights over your island, or replace the island with a lacquered piece. You can also choose steel countertops that also add a contemporary look to an otherwise traditional kitchen.
   
• Bathroom: If you want to incorporate a modern touch, use glass, metal, ceramic and wood. If you have a traditional clawfoot tub, you can install modern floor tiles, or arrange some traditional tiles in a chevron pattern.
   
• Living room: If you already have traditional architectural features such as trims and moldings, add clean-lined chairs and sofas to keep fabrics warm yet neutral in color.
   
  We can’t deny transitional design can bring together two opposing styles into a cohesive room design when done properly. If you want to create a great transitional interior look, look for a good interior designer from Paris.
