Interior Inspirations: Urban 57

Polished Simplicity

We can achieve this look by making the classic and timeless more crisp and polished—mixing traditional with modern; mixing luxurious accessories and accents with organic material; introducing metal, glass and stone elements to timeless classics; adding saturated accent colors with refined texture and crisp solid textiles. Statement art pieces are also a must.

Vintage Eclectic

This look can be achieved by adding vintage or vintage-inspired elements juxtaposed with modern elements, rich but tonal colorways, weathered or worn finishes contrasted with touches of shine and gloss, or luxurious linen and velvet textiles. All of this can only be achieved with a good foundation, such as choosing the right Oriental rug to build around.

Benchmark

Antiqued brass nailheads add traditional detail, while soft gray canvas, a unique wing shape and splayed nettle wood legs give this Kensington Carter Dining Bench by Four Hands a contemporary presence; also available in side chairs.

Comfy Cozy

This tufted Brett Sofa by Robin Bruce—with its clean lines, classical nailheads and down seating—creates a high-end look with value in mind.
