Furniture is a necessity for every home. However, furniture doesn't just have to be functional, It can be beautiful furniture as well.
Each country has a different history of furniture which has created their currently trending furniture.
Furniture items can include living room furniture, dining tables, beds, outdoor furniture, chairs, and many more items around the home.
For many years now, furniture has been a way for people to express themselves, through furniture, we are able to surround ourselves with little snippets of who we truly are.
Surrounding your family with beautiful furniture that is both functional and breathtaking is achievable.
It is important to understand that everyone has their own furniture likes and dislikes. For example, you may love modern furniture but your partner may love antique furniture. Finding flow and balance between your home's furniture is vital to create an atmosphere where each piece of furniture compliments the next.
Eclectic styled furniture, done well can be the solution to having varied tastes in furniture.
They say, 'One man's trash, is another man's treasure' I say, 'One man's old furniture is another man's new antique furniture'.
We are lucky to live in a time where furniture from the past is so strongly valued and many try to duplicate these pieces of furniture, usually just with 1 twist or tie to modern furniture.
A good example of antique style furniture with a modern aspect can be seen in Industrial furniture, whereby one has taken an old industrial (once functional piece of furniture), and refreshed it and made it a relevant piece of furniture once more.
A lovely piece of furniture like this would be an old ladder, you could turn this into a new piece of furniture by adding a backing frame and planks of wood and using it as display shelving furntiure.
All in all, furniture really has come a long way functionality wise and what is now trendy furniture may be known as antique furniture in the future.
Remember to buy durable furniture, furniture that you expect to pass down through generations. Furniture that showcases who you are and most importantly furniture that you LOVE.
