I truly believe the architecture and the interior design should relate and echo each other. A brick traditional Georgian with modern interiors will never feel homogenous.

I think this is super regional! Some areas traditional will always be “in” while others it makes no sense in!

I do think having an eclectic mix of antique pieces and styles can carry you through time and be adapted and adjusted to different aesthetics. The issue is when people lean too much into one style and trend and make every detail linking back to that trend. And I would say most times the new or reproduced version of cottagecore or Nancy Meyers or what farmhouse was 10 years ago will always date you and is a lot harder to adapt to your future tastes

My home reflects my heart. And odes to the past and things that inspire me at that time. A collection of me

Disagree. Can someone do their home in a style that isn’t true to them and then later hate it? Sure. Does the style itself when done well age badly? No. It’s timeless and that’s just a fact

Especially when the style/design does not fit the house itself lol

Good design is a mix of your taste, plus acknowledging your lifestyle needs, plus honoring any unique architectural features of your home. Timeless design is one that someone walks into your home and can say “wow, this is beautiful and very much you”.

Like the 2000s Tuscan style still kills today in an actual Tuscan property…it looked whack in suburban Kansas City then and worse now. Same with the current resurgence of traditional. That same suburban box home looks whack in a hard core theme that pretends the home is something it’s not

See I would say as long as a person can live with it, love it and it means a lot to them and the home displays who they are then it really doesn’t matter bc interior design and decor is something super personal and its not necessarily objective nor is everything and every rule in design mutually exclusive. However I would say that its not necessarily where you live that determines your design, although that is a big part of the conversation and is a valid reason but I think more so what style home you have like you cant decorate a home from the 1950’s like a thatched roof, stone cottage in england bc the architecture itself is so important to the design and style of the room; region and where you live I think is important when it comes to the functionality of a space, like if a person designs a home that needs a fireplace in each room bc they like it and its because they like a country home in yorkshire, that doesn’t translate well if you live in the sunbelt and hardly get snow, like the fireplaces are taking away space at that point and are not functionally necessary. So like if you live in a 1910s home in the sunbelt and the architecture is original and there is a fireplace in each room and you love it even if you live in a warm climate, because you are sticking with the architecture and decorating with traditional finishes, textiles and furnishings that would suit the time period of the home then I see it more as stewardship to maintaining the house, and I cannot fault that especially if it is done because the owners love the original interiors of the time.

My #1 pet peeve is when you can tell what era/decade house was updated in. I don’t want to be able to tell!!!! That’s what classic/traditional is. This style is gonna be soooooo outdated and a sign of the times

I think it also matters the age of your house and the style of it. Like I’ve got an old house and I live in an old part of town and everyone here furnishes with antiques so it doesn’t feel trendy to me. But a house built in even the 60s decorated like that is going to look trendy

Hard agree. It needs to relate to the architecture and the location of the house.

Absolutely, that’s why designing a beautiful house and “timeless “ requires time and curation, your house should look like you not some Pinterest board.
