How to use grandmillennial style
You can use grandmillennial style in a variety of ways to add character and personality to your living space. Here are several keys to incorporating this style in your home:
- The style is also called “new traditionalism” as it incorporates modern pieces with more traditional decor, so don’t be afraid to look at what you currently have in your home, or what you might find while vintage shopping, for inspiration.
- With grandmillennial style, it’s all in the details! Don’t be afraid to mix bold patterns and look for ornate fixtures. Printed wallpaper is also a popular way to incorporate this style into rooms of your home. When shopping, seek out floral or chintz prints, pleated lampshades, and comfy, overstuffed furniture.
Because this style is so heavily detailed, keeping surfaces clutter-free can help promote a calming, cozy space. Additionally, millwork company Woodgrain recommends that homeowners think critically about the number of furniture pieces in each room. This can keep the space from feeling cramped.
