Modern or traditional?

9 years ago

I am building a new house and am wondering if the two styles can be blended together? If you use modern faucets do you have to have modern cabinets?

They absolutely can be blended, and if you peruse the photo section you will see many successful examples to inspire your new home.

As long as the finishes and colors are consistent it would be quite interesting to mix different styles.

Modern in this case looks better to me. But a traditional bathroom with contemporary features can look really good.

Hello Stoneham, Yes I firmly believe in curating a dramatic space that blends a lot of aspects and people shouldn't shy away from creating unique spaces that are more than just the idea of one or the other.. : ))

Hello Geyser Ltd, I would say the traditional styles which range from industrial looking to more ornate varieties... They can be painted to blend or painted to create a statement. They look equally fabulous in the traditional or modern home and the industrial aesthetic of some of the styles (plainer rather than one's that are ornate) look at home in any setting... So these for sure! As you say they are versatile... For me that's paramount! They put the "RAD" in RADiator! : ))

Hi Amelia, This is a fantastic space, I love the detail and height you have in your living room! A great way to get away from the stark white walls is to paint the room in a grey tone, this will allow you to still use your existing furniture and accessories in your space. I would suggest using Grey Steel 3, which a beautiful soft grey tone. This colour will definitely be in keeping with the details of the room and most importantly your furniture. Or if you do want to stay with the neutral tones Chalk Blush 3 will be the best colour for this as this is still bright but brings a touch of warmth to the room. If you would like to give either of these colours a try you can always get some tester pots and test them out or if you have a smart phone you can download the Dulux visualizer app. This is so easy all you have to do is point your phone at the walls of your room and pick either of these colours. I hope you find this helpful! If you need anything else, please let us know - happy decorating!
