Urban classic home decor is a classic combination of traditional furniture mixed with sophisticated details and striking accessories. This style of home decor creates a comfortable and live-able environment, while still appearing upscale and chic. Generally featuring strong earth tones, off-set by rich colors and dramatic accents, urban classic home decor can easily be created within any living space (big or small).
How To Do Urban Classic Home Decorating
Featured here are examples of how to add urban classic home decor to your home. Whether you’re looking to create a tranquil oasis for your bedroom, add an element of luxury to your living room, or want to evoke romance and charm in your dining room, urban classic home decor is the way to go.
When it comes to selecting living room furniture, it’s best to choose a sofa or chairs that are comfortable to sit on for extended periods, are created out of a durable and easily cleanable material (such as leather or a pre-treated microfiber fabric), and that are in a neutral color.
For that luxe look, add sumptuous fabrics (like faux fur throws and an animal print area rug) to the room. These types of accessories will instantly add a “wow” factor to your space.
In addition, your entertainment center and furniture should be both able to provide ample storage, while displaying your possessions in an esthetically-pleasing manner. Finding quality furniture that is both affordable and stylish is not as challenging as you might think.
Pieces like the below entertainment credenza from Sauder are a perfect example of items that not only serve a practical function, but add visual interest to your space as well.
When it’s time to tune out the rest of the world and just relax, your bedroom should be a peaceful and relaxing haven. Juxtaposing masculine elements (like bold black & white bedding) with feminine accents (such as faux fur pillows and whimsical wall art) is the perfect way to create an urban classic bedroom that both a husband and wife would enjoy.
Inviting guests over for a home-cooked meal is a special occasion in and of itself. Aside from preparing a dinner that your guests will enjoy, setting the mood for your dining room starts with your table. Beautiful traditional furniture, off-set by candlelight (set in earthy tribal-inspired candle holders), flowers (displayed in an antique, gold-toned vase), and ornamental accents create a spectacular presentation that your guests will delight in.
Regardless of your budget, this style of home decorating can be accomplished by mixing quality pieces (that will last for years) with inexpensive accessories (for that novel touch). For more ideas about how to incorporate urban classic home decor into your house, visit the Sauder Pinterest page.
