Traditional

• The traditional type of home decor is a good choice when you have a large, elegant home to serve as the backdrop. Hallmarks of the traditional decor include 18th and 19th century French and English antiques in warm, dark woods. The home should also have a refined look, achieved through small details such as chair railings, moldings, ornate fireplaces, wood floors and French doors. This home is usually accented by a color palette that includes deep reds, marine blues and gold, with elegant silk, velvet, and satin fabric choices.
  
  

Art Deco

• The art deco movement began during the Roaring '20s and is recognized in design through geometric patterns, sleek style, and avant garde influence. Sleek, black lacquered furniture is a popular choice for art deco homes, accented with chrome or glass accessories. Popular colors include deep jewel tones or neutrals such as white, beige, or black and white, especially when they are painted or designed in geometric patterns.
  
  

Craftsman Style

• Americans answered the excess of the Victorian era, which focused on mass-produced home decor, with the arts and crafts era, which focused on simple, well-built things. The arts and crafts era gave birth to the Craftsman-style home, which were called bungalows. Known for their deep front porches, these homes emphasized natural materials, functional design, and superior craftsmanship. They generally have clean lines, highlighted by wainscoting, with a palette of soft, natural colors. These homes were originally appointed with plain, solid oak furniture.
  
  

Contemporary/Modern

• The contemporary home decor features a minimalist, sleek design that creates a large, open feel to the space. These spaces usually are painted in pure white, highlighted by bold or bright colors. Furniture pieces tend to be utilitarian in nature, have natural materials and unconventional shapes with lots of curves. The home is accented with almost invisible lighting and bold pieces such as large bright floral arrangements.
