The term classic decor often elicits impassioned reactions. It may be adoration, affection or complete detest. Many perceive it as boring and invariably associate it with a cream and brown colour scheme.

This could not be more inaccurate. Classic design doesn’t rely on restraining your options. On the contrary, it sets up a mixed playing field.

The axiom is what you leave out is as important as what you put in. Which is why I keep six considerations in mind when designing a classic space.
