Grandmacore design goes beyond vintage décor. In 2025, it's about having history and showing it off
The backlash to minimalism has begun. Décor goals are going “more is more”. And when young people mean more, they mean rummaging through grandpa and grandma’s things. Burnished brass is coming out of old trunks. Embroidered bolsters are the first to be picked up in a thrift swap. Bye bye beige; old-timey pastels are returning to décor.
Think of it as nostalgia with a modern twist. Danesh Bhambhani, founder of DB Design Studio and co-founder of Godai Arts; Rohan Jain, director at RJ Projects; and Shakshi Jain, founder of Studio Dvaar, show us how to build up to the style.
