Discovering timeless elegance in interior design: traditional and transitional styles

Traditional style

Classical never goes out of fashion, and in the world of decorating, it's no different. This style is inspired by the old European palaces of the 17th and 18th centuries. As such, spaces are marked above all by a sense of majesty, and naturally, this style is best suited to large spaces with high ceilings. The furniture, fabrics and patterns that characterize classic decor are distinguished by their robustness. Velvet, noble woods, marble and turned pieces are the usual choices, and always demonstrate an immense wealth of detail.

But it's not just the furniture and upholstery that contribute to creating that regal ambience. A range of objects such as crystals, silverware, porcelain, books, floral arrangements, chandeliers and even busts are also part of the classic style, adding even more emphasis to the atmosphere.Our designer has created a moodboard specially dedicated to the traditional style, to allow you to fully immerse yourself in this regal aesthetic. This moodboard highlights the soft colors and classic patterns that characterize this style, allowing you to better visualize how your space could be transformed.

What's more, our designer has carefully selected the Cover Styl references that best complement this classic decorating style. Our self-adhesive coverings, such as NE70 Onyx Gold or AF10 Hazelnut Cream, offer incredible versatility, allowing you to breathe new life into your furniture, walls and even doors, while retaining the very essence of traditional style.

Transitional style

Transitional-style interior design is a blend of traditional and modern styles. Bringing together elements of various design styles creates a unique design that updates the classics with a modern, cohesive feel. It balances luxury with comfort, masculine with feminine, and antiques with contemporary pieces. In a transitional-style interior, furniture shapes are sophisticated. Elements with right angles and well-defined lines share the space with objects with rounded, worked profiles. Transitional decor retains the classic lines of traditional styles, yet colors and furniture generally have a more modern appearance.

Transitional style is often described as a balanced mix of traditional and contemporary furnishings and decor. People who appreciate a "lighter" traditional look choose this style, as transitional decorating tends to stay current for several decades while still looking fresh. Having explored traditional style in our previous moodboard, it's time to discover the moodboard specially dedicated to transitional style. It highlights the key elements of this style, giving you a better understanding of how your space can be transformed to reflect elegance and modernity.

What's more, our designer has carefully selected Cover Styl references that blend perfectly with transitional decor. You can discover how our adhesive coverings such as NF13 Deep green or NE31 Statuary White blend seamlessly with the aesthetics of this unique style.

In conclusion, each of these styles offers an experience of its own, highlighting distinct facets of interior aesthetics. Traditional transported us back in time, evoking the grandeur and opulence of bygone eras, while Transitional immersed us in a harmonious fusion of classic and contemporary, where balance reigns supreme. Our aim was to inspire you, to give you a glimpse of the infinite possibilities of modern interior design.
