A mix of styles, from rustic to vintage, gives a 19th-century home a fresh renewal.
BLENDING A VARIETY OF DÉCOR STYLES TO CREATE A SIGNATURE LOOK is a bold design choice to make in any home, particularly in one more than a century old.
But by carefully selecting elements that bridge the distinct styles, this custom look will feel totally natural in your home.
Following the purchase of a turn-of-the-century home in her husband’s hometown in Alberta, Canada, Deborah McDonald set out to restore what was once a longtime rental property into the home of her dreams. “I really wanted to bring back the beautiful original elements remaining in the home, like the trim and moldings, while still having it fit my style,” she says. “My husband Patrick and I did almost all of the work on the home ourselves, from painting and restoring the original hardwood floors to creating a number of the light fixtures and installing landscaping.”
