Description

How do you design a space that successfully mixes traditional and modern elements?

In The New Classic Home, designer Paloma Contreras demonstrates how to successfully pair seemingly disparate pieces to create harmonious, timeless, and balanced interiors. Contreras walks readers through her four main techniques—Colour, Texture & Pattern, Scale & Proportion, and Tension—and shows how to bridge the gap between modern and traditional.

With spectacular photography and personalised design tips, The New Classic Home divulges how to blend vintage pieces into even the most contemporary settings, highlight favourite elements of any architectural style, freshen classic silhouettes, and create layered, interesting spaces that always include an element of modern surprise with a touch of elegant antiquity.
