By choosing this style in the decor, you can diversify the interior using unlimited fantasy of the project authors. Retro style is not a set of old trash. This is, first of all, the ratio of color scheme, forms, proportionality in the size of objects, harmonization of the room and the atmosphere, filled with cozy, peace and fabulous mood.

This pleasant condition is transmitted in such a room to people. Below are photos of interiors in a vintage style.

The term coming from winemaking and denoting a good exposure is often used to describe the interior, which reigns an old environment. This design does not lose its relevance: at all times there were people who sought to equip their life as well as their ancestors. In the room used antiques, antiques, which were always in price, because they pass the mood, traditions from generation to generation, symbolize the connection of the centuries. However, the design of such products is also impressive, because for our time it is completely unusual forms, lines, decor.

Due to the fact that the vintage items do not look like that we used to see furniture products of our time, the design in a similar style is considered extraordinary. Fashionable products at one time today are talking about tastes and preferences of the time when they were made. Their forms and nature make it possible to draw conclusions about the culture, art and trends of fashion past centuries.

But the cause of the popularity of the style of Vintage is not only in the non-standard of the furniture used. This design is devoid of bustle in which a modern person is used to live. The furnishings in the room with old objects is measured and calm. It is for this that people who make their homes and apartments with antiques. Even the presence of several objects in the usual modern room will already give the interior with a completely different character. But the design it is more harmonious and balanced in a single composition.

Vintage interior color palette

Vintage interior is usually used interesting combinations and color solutions. Here is widely used natural woody gamut. At the same time, it is usually sufficiently saturated, since only expensive wood varieties have always been used in the production of such furniture. And their shade is usually bright and warm.

In the finish and other details relevant such palette:

  • Despite the cold spectrum, gray-blue colors - one of the most harmonious decisions for design in the style of vintage. Such shades look often durable from long-term operation of furniture. In combination with natural scuffs, gray-blue tones will really look old. Most often, a similar gamut is used in style with its pastel burnt shades, in which vintage interior items are also appropriate.
  • In the shades of the gray and green, the vintage room will also look like a bit embarled on time. To get involved, of course, this gamma is not worth it, because gray shades can visually make green dirty, which will give the interior of a non-vintage charm, but a dust flight.
  • Bright shades of beige are appropriate in the widest range: from cream to coffee with milk and mocha. These are elegant colors that are commonly used not in a shaft form, but in the forms and lines of vintage design. They can be supplemented with gold, as in classicism, or bronze, patina, pearly spraying.

But it is usually chosen to arrange a young lady's bedroom, young ladies and family pairs, but in this case pink are complemented by dark - stronger shades, such as black, dark gray, chocolate. Then the room will be organically perceived as a woman and a man.

General style characteristics

Vintage is difficult to highlight in the direction of design, in which everything is always unambiguous and understandable. This is not minimalism, in which there is no place to decor, and not technological Hi-Tech with its independent dynamism and subordinate to equipping and comfort. Vintage is far from the traditional classics, in which everything is geometric and correct. It is impossible to place it in the framework of rustic styles, such as Provence ,.

You can find in it the features of modern and baroque, a little gothic and. Shebbi-Shik, on the contrary, borrow vintage things from vintage styles, because the design itself is invented by one person, and not the era and the development of culture. Of course, Vintage does not have philosophy as a modern or classic, but it allows you to link the past and present, and makes it using beautiful and exquisite interior items.

The main feature of the Vintage style can be called elevated comfort. As a rule, vintage things cause nostalgic people, pleasant memories, sometimes sadness. Therefore, in this interior, no one will remain indifferent. Of course, if the space is clouded with furniture, then you can forget about the comfort, but with competent arrangement of the room here will always be pleasantly.

The center of the composition often becomes one only thing. It can be a bed in a bedroom, a chest of drawers or an ancient chair in the living room, a dining table in the dining room or kitchen.

Furniture should be a fucking or about the "old" origin should say its form. Of course, graceful interior items can also be rubbed, but it all depends on the general mood in the interior. If you are trying to recreate the luxurious Royal BooR, it is not worth using frankly shabby items.


In this style it is impossible to determine the temporary borders: it may be the interior of the 16th and 8th centuries, and maybe the beginning of the 20th century. Everything defines your taste and opportunities.

Vintage can be thematic - in jazz style, hippie, rock and roll. Each of these directions of music had its own era and peak of popularity. Therefore, the interior must be furnished in the traditions of that time. Of course, it all applies to the XX century, but in general the design will be recognizable, because completely other interior items, shades and forms were used. For example, in the kitchen of that time you can see a gentle blue or red refrigerator. It will be small, but streamlined.

The room can be fully decorated in a single style, and can be simply decorated with several vintage products.

The characteristic feature of the anticraft objects is the signature of the authors. It can be a factory stamp, hardly readable inscription on the tabletop, on the end of the buffet, etc.

Finishing the main surfaces

If you decorate the room completely in a vintage style, then it is important to take into account the features of the finish, because a hundred years ago there were no LEDs and stretch ceilings, laminate and linoleum. Everything was simple and natural, which should be followed when the vintage interior interior arranged.

Ceiling

The ceiling is usually just painting usually in white color. There is no place for stretched canvases and point lamps. However, it is possible to "inform" the composition with matte materials corresponding to the design of the lamps. But more relevant still remains stucco.

Floor

Traditionally, the floor is placed by wooden boards in the interior simpler, parquet in the noble rooms, a cafeter in the kitchen, bathrooms, hallways. Modern parquet can look pretty varied, but it always looks expensive. But you need to choose the boards that are loss.

Walls

Walls can be diverse. Most often, they are covered by wallpaper. But if in the aristocratic version of the style of vintage it will be textile materials, then in more simple interior Used ordinary paper stripes. The pattern of such imitates brick masonry, whitewash, the texture of stone or wood. You can choose a small floral pattern or a large classic ornament.

Walls can be painted and separated by panels at the bottom, and leave the wallpaper or paint on top. It all depends on the nature and mood of the situation.

The choice of color and drawing depends on many factors. For example, in the style of Provence, wallpapers will be exceptionally pastel and in small flower. The interior closer to the classic and baroque can use a large vegetable or an ornament, as well as strip. The design of the middle of the XX century "preference" graphic contrasting solutions - black and white tiles, more precisely, its imitation, geometric pattern. Industrial can also be vintage, then there will be brick walls. But most often the vintage is a wallpaper with flowers or striped.

What materials may prefer

In general, the finishing of the main surfaces determined the use of natural wood, paper or textile wallpaper, paints. But this is not all materials used in a vintage style. In addition to the listed and ceramic tiles, interior items, as well as decoration, can be created using forged parts, copper and bronze elements, natural stone, precious metals.

Furniture

Despite the fact that the furniture should be worn visually, vintage can be its shape, materials, decor. At the same time, it is not necessary to be launched paint or surfaces. It is necessary for simple rustic rooms, but in luxury interiors It is better to abandon such "compilation."

Practically in every room made in the style of vintage, is present original shape And finishes Chest or chest, bureau, buffet or tremor. It is these items most often retain an antiquity of ancient, because in modern catalogs of furniture factories they are simply absent.

The harmonious will be a leather sofa or armchair on curved legs. But this is not the mild corner, which testifies to the prosperity of its owners, and wooden furniture, only a part of which skin upholstered.


Most often, antique items have rounded shapes. These are not only curved legs, but also the entire case. For example, a chest of drawers or a chest may seem "inflated" due to the curled shape of the frame walls. At the same time, wooden items almost always have carved and overhead decorative details. All lower parts of furniture are also made up with elegant cutouts. Usually they are symmetrically from the middle to the corners. Such a decor can be seen both in wooden products and in the decoration of bathrooms for swimming, in stone masterpieces of the past, in the frames of mirrors and paintings.


Wooden furniture items are usually lacquered or color. In the style of vintage they rarely remain just polished. Moreover, craklers will be appropriate here - the grid of the cracked paint, through which the other layer is glad. Beautifully look at the decoupage on vintage furniture.

You can do this and with your own hands. Turn ordinary old table The old one is also quite simple: it is enough right on the table top to put a ceramic tile, broken on the wrong fragments. It seems like a cracked ceramic surface. This can all be covered with a twine or climb around the perimeter with lace. Similarly, you can proceed with a number of decorative details.

Decor

The decor primarily performs furniture with its curved forms, lining, thread. But, of course, there will be other details in the vintage style interior:

  • The dishes are often used here as decoration. It is exhibited in buffets, on open shelves. Plates can be decorated with decoupage or paint. The utensils can also be antique - thin and elegant or vice versa rather coarse ceramic.
  • Vases, figurines, desktop and outdoor clocks, paintings - a standard set of quite familiar things may look in the spirit of ancient. These elements can also be shameful, compiled, painted in the technique of cracker.

  • Curtains here deserve separate attention. It can be severe curtains, as in classicism, and there may be light linen or sorts of curtains, as in Provence or Country. If we talk about classic models, then they must be decorated with lambrequins, brushes, ruffles. Raffes are applicable on light natural curtains.

It can be left brick in a simpler interior or to separate a facing stone under ancient in a more luxurious design.

But the center of the bathroom, except for the bowl, the mirror becomes. It must be closed in a luxurious frame - carved wooden or plaster with stucco.

Directly bathroom bathing container can be any, but rectangular forms are inappropriate here. It is better to choose an oval or even a round bowl, you can prefer to imitate steel fonts. Optimally put it in the center or on the podium. The luxurious solution will be the arrangement of the bowl of the pool - with a recess below the floor level with a mosaic finish.

Someone prefers minimalism, not a launching apartment with excessive details, and someone wants to create an original and individual interior in the house, which is replete with unusual elements and antiques.

Antiques are an excellent tool for creating an antique style. For many years now, it is also used by designers, and apartment owners.

Antiques are an efficient tool for creating an antique style. For several decades, it is already eagerly used both designers and owners of apartments. But in order to correctly choose the necessary interior items, it is required to consider which vintage style directions are used today for the arrangement of modern houses.

Imitation ancient epochs

There are several vintage styles in which it is practically impossible to use original antique samples that are usually the necessary component of such interiors. We are talking about ancient Greek, Egyptian and Roman styles. All in a small number of preserved antiques, which was used in everyday life, living in those distant times are museum exhibits.

Figure 1. Egyptian style in the interior provides for the predominance of geometric forms, as well as natural themes.

To recreate these style solutions, furniture and accessories, imitating rarities are used. In European countries, where vintage styles are a fairly popular design direction, such things are found quite often.

What are the ancient styles characterized? If we talk about Egypt, then these are all sorts of geometrically correct figures with the predominance of cubic forms, smooth polished surfaces, numerous bas-reliefs with natural theme. In addition, the ancient Egyptian direction characterize papyrus, mosaic, interior elements from marble or inlaid metals. Excellent accessories with hieroglyphs and enamels will look. Stylized vases, figurines and even palm trees will help to recreate the spirit of an ancient country. An example of this interior is as follows (Fig. 1).

When creating an ancient Greek style, it is necessary to use a constructive simple, but ergonomic, very elegant, with a lot of unusual decorations furniture. As is known from the descriptions, the ancient Greeks used very beautiful furniturewhich was often made of mahogany, had inlaid and finishing marble and gold. Despite the seeming simplicity of designs, such elements give the interior sophistication and originality.

Figure 2. Roman style uses rich paintings and accessories, various mosaics, plaster.

Also greek style characterize the following details:

  • light tissue tissues;
  • marble sculptures and figurines;
  • many ceramic products with stylized Greek pattern: vessels, vases and amphors;
  • natural stone floors or imitation;
  • classic columns;
  • bas reliefs.

The ceiling in this interior can be decorated with fresco or stretch design with photo printing under the mural.

The Roman vintage style originates in Greece, so the effect of Hellenism was widely reflected. Despite this, the Roman style direction is inherent and completely unique elements. For example, bronze furniture, which could only use the elite of society. Also harmoniously will look and furniture from wood, iron or marble.

To recreate the spirit of ancient Rome, various mosaics are used, painted plaster, complex rich paintings and accessories inlaid gold, silver and other metals. In order to characterize this style direction, you can use only 2 words - antiquity and brutality, where the luxurious interior items are hidden behind the strong walls of the building (Fig. 2).

Medieval style directions

Laconic and rude romance style How no other is able to convey the spirit of the Middle Ages.

When using this style, the design of the room is usually performed in dark (red, brown, green and black) tones, but the gray-white finish will be fit.

There is a large number of direct lines (both horizontal and vertical), the presence of knight attributes - torches, coat of arms, weapons. Walls can be decorated with geometric or vegetable patterns, decorative windows or frescoes. It is often used by monophonic plaster - beige or yellow-brown.

Figure 3. In the romance style, wooden furniture decorated with coarse threads and wrought details will be perfect.

The ceiling must have the appearance of the arch, while its color must fully fit the color of the walls. To give the ceiling decorativeness, it can be decorated with a fresco or rest rudely executed backups. The floor is lined with ceramic tiles under stone or natural stone.

Furniture items play a huge role when reconstructing the medieval spirit. They, like everyone else in these rooms, should be massive and quite primitive. Wooden furniture, decorated with rough thread and wrought details will be perfect. It is undesirable to use any upholstered furniture, the exception of something can serve only the bed. An example of a romance style is shown in Fig.3.

Byzantine style is associated with luxury. This style direction continues an ancient Roman style, which causes the use of large amounts of textiles and woven upholsters in decorating interiors. Ideal if the fabrics are decorated with rich embroidery with geometric or vegetable patterns. Garmoniously fit into the design of the furniture and paintings inlaid by metals and paintings on religious topics.

The best colors of the finishes of the premises when performing them in the Byzantine style will become golden, red, yellow, indigo or purple.

Baroque - the brightest style of the Middle Ages

Figure 4. The main elements of the Baroque style are the use of expensive marble finishes for fireplaces and the use of removable covers for upholstered furniture.

The same colors are characterized by another medieval style - baroque, which includes many new interior elements that appeared at the end of the Renaissance. First of all, these are twisted legs, adorning massive furniture, high backs, which gave the chairs of the throne, armrests, rich and heavy curtains, chic tapestries.

The main attributes of this antique style are the use of expensive marble finishes for fireplaces and the use of removable covers for upholstered furniture. Typically covers were made of lightweight natural fabrics - lace and silk. Furniture items should be made of expensive wood breeds - cedar, red or ebony.

A little later, elements such as candelabras and outdoor clock were included in the baroque style. Together with them, the interior will greatly decorate expensive furniture with a variety of decorative elements: tissue, thread or ornaments. Recreation of the Baroque style, it must be remembered that here the furniture should be not so many life objects as elements of collectibles, and accessories should create an original and lush decor. The baroque example is presented in Fig.4.

Rococo Chippendal - Style Direction of the XVIII century

Design in the style of Rococo Chippendale must match the walls in pastel colors, expensive decorative elements and ornaments.

At the beginning of the XVIII century, a few more style directions were included in the fashion, which can be considered ancient design styles. Almost all of them are created by Nagida Albion. So, a purely English direction should be considered such an old style like Rococo Chippendale. The furniture master managed to create an amazing combination of Gothic, classic Rococo and Chinese art.

Basically, this style direction is characterized by expensive furniture with gilding, luxurious inlays, thin carvings. Design in the spirit of Thomas Chippendale must fit the walls in pastel colors, a large amount of Eastern textile, dear decorative elements and ornaments.

Since Rococo is the future ladies' style, pink tones are welcomed, mirrors in luxurious frames, deep soft seatsintended for lush women's clothing.

The word "Vintage" came to us from french, where I marked a strong excerpt, for decades, which was waiting in the wing cellars. Then the concept was transferred to the interior to designate the stylist direction, where old things were transferred to the modern dwelling. But the vintage style in the interior involves not only their presence in the house - the atmosphere itself has its own specifics.

Modern

Vintage thing is a really 30-year-old thing to a certain time, which is at least 30 years old and who has been fashionable for some time ago. Retro is the general concept of style for which both antiques and modern, stylized under the antiquity, "Novodelki" are characteristic.

Babushkin Chest, who had once kept her dowry, is a vintage subject, as well as a buffet in which she kept the service donated to the wedding. A artificially aged table, a hook-knitted rug, embroidered in an old-style tablecloth, is retro. Vintage uses fashionable once things that have become popular. Retro does not depend on fashion, it simply belongs to its era or depicts it.

The main features of the style of vintage

Today, under the vintage style of the interior it is understood as recreation of the situation of the end of the XIX-early XX centuries. But we already live in another century, so things relating to the middle of the last century can be considered vintage.

Choosing a vintage style for the interior, it is necessary to decide what the era is closer to the spirit that you want to implement in your apartment. Do not forget that all residents of the dwellings must be decorated in a single style. Ultra-modern either, on the contrary, classic and especially - embodying luxury Baroque and other similar styles can not be combined on one territory with a breathable vintage vintage.

Important! The main requirement when making an interior in a vintage style is the presence of objects belonging to the recreated era.

Room interior in vintage style

In fact, the vintage in the interior is not a napkin to the old furniture, yellowed napkins and subzor - things "with history" quite get along with modern, and there are no strict requirements here.
