從滿貼炫目圖案牆紙的房間,到鋪滿地毯的浴室,我們希望很多室內設計潮流暫停在藝術史的書頁裡。我們看到時尚的潮頭起起落落,其中一些比另一些更加持久,但它們都有一個共同點。當潮流逐漸平息時,曾經囂立於潮頭的東西也隨之消退平息。

值得慶倖的是,如果您想要您的家居裝飾保持經典魅力,是有一種抵禦時光流轉的簡單方法的——選擇合適的傢俱。這似乎內含玄機,但確實不然!我們為您歸納了下面五個建議,讓您選擇永恆經典的傢俱。

1. 選擇耐用的材料

在購買傢俱時,選擇最上乘的材料才能歷久彌新。儘管顆粒板和塑膠材質的家居用途廣泛,價格實惠,但隨著使用時間的累積,它們的表面必然會破損、有刮痕、起泡、剝脫。所以即便您選擇的款式非常經典,但它們往往也難以支持天長日久的使用。相反地,可以考慮用經久耐用的材料製成的傢俱。這可能包括:- 實木 - 實木貼面 - 玻璃 - 陶瓷 - 金屬 - 皮革,這些材料不僅經得起日常使用,而且實木和皮革等材料只會隨著時間流逝而變得更美。儘管它們不可避免地會有些許磨損,但這些小瑕疵使它們更具個性,使您的室內裝飾更加獨特!另外,持久的材料更加環保。優質傢俱可以使用數十年,而粗製濫造的廉價傢俱通常在使用幾年後就得運往垃圾填埋場。想確保您的傢俱服務多年?學會保養傢俱將延長它們的使用壽命。

2. 尋找經得起考驗的永恆風格

丹麥和上世紀中期的現代風格傢俱在1900年代中期時達到全盛時期,至今它們依然備受追捧。為什麼要這樣做呢?它們的簡約風格使其能與多種裝飾風格完美融合。它們宛若可以隨意揮灑靈感的空白畫布。BoConcept 自 1952 年起開始生產丹麥傢俱,因此我們對這種風格毫不陌生——我們與時俱全,滿足不斷更新的需求。下面是一些經典傢俱元素。

柔和曲線:

比如圓形桌面、拱形椅子扶手和有機形狀等元素。這能賦予設計動感,讓家居不顯得死板僵硬。

中性色調:

通常,如黑、灰、白、棕等中性色是最理想選擇。除非您希望突出某件特殊的傢俱。

簡潔審美:

乾淨的線條和簡約的裝飾。如此便可確保它不會與房間中任何裝飾衝突。

3. 盡情享受您的生活方式

如果一件傢俱能被頻繁使用,那麼它自然就會變成「家中原有之物」,並很快成為日常生活的中心點。問問自己:我想要讓房間給人什麼印象?而我在房間裡面時感覺如何?例如,如果您喜歡接待親朋好友,那麼優質的可延長餐桌可能是不錯的選擇。想打造一個放鬆的空間?選擇像 Athena 躺椅這樣舒適的躺椅。它柔和的線條使之能輕鬆地與多種裝飾風格相得益彰,同時其優質布料確保其持久耐用。

4. Make it personal

Buying furniture based on your personal style is perhaps the easiest way to cultivate a timeless feel. If you a love a piece or it has sentimental value, it will infuse your space with personality—which is always timeless.

Reflect Your History:

Your grandmother’s old sofa may be plastered in outdated florals. But if it has good bones, new upholstery can breathe new life in it. Have a dresser from childhood that needs a little TLC? Fresh paint or a new finish may be all it needs. Not only is this approach environmentally-friendly and budget-conscious, but the memories attached to these pieces are irreplaceable.

Go Custom Made:

It may be a bit more of an investment, but by going custom made you will end up with a piece that is perfectly suited to your style—not just the latest trend.

5. Seek out expert advice

It can be hard to know what we will love a few decades down the road, in a couple of years, or let’s be honest, a few months from now. That’s why it never hurts to get a bit of expert advice when it comes to picking furniture that will stand the test of time. An interior designer can offer tailored guidance on selecting furniture that not only fits your lifestyle and design vision, but pieces that will last through many home makeovers.

Are trends bad?

Absolutely not! There is nothing wrong with embracing the latest trend if it speaks to you. In fact, timeless furniture isn’t a way to avoid trends—it’s a way to embrace them. Selecting furniture that can evolve with the comings and goings of the latest design crazes will ensure your home always feels fresh and inviting. Not to mention, not constantly changing your furniture out to match the latest style can save you some major money in the long run—and who doesn’t want that!

By incorporating timeless furniture in your home, you are creating a canvas to build any style upon. Whether that means an infusion of art deco, embracing contemporary, or a mix and match of styles you love, timeless furniture is a simple way to ensure your home always looks its best.
