3 ANTIQUES AND VINTAGE FURNISHINGS

Shopping second hand will be the biggest trend in 2022 not only as an answer to the current global supply chain issue but simply because it looks chic.

I am happy that vintage pieces and antiquities made a comeback this year. I always say that each piece in your home should tell a good visual story and this trend is front and center to that philosophy.

Last year, the Grand millennial style or Cottage core paved the way for thrifting and vintage piece revival. Both looks are the antidote to the mid-century modern interiors, minimalist or that Japandi bare look that dominated our Instagram feeds for years.

In the earlier months of the pandemic, we discovered a lot of means to refresh homes without breaking the bank, even if that meant bringing out your grandmother’s old armoire and updating a few details, or that vintage Queen Anne chair reupholstered in soft velvet green fabric to make a space look entirely new.

Antique and vintage finds are the greener choice for design and an ode to upcycling, which had never been more on-trend than now.
