Transitional is the New Traditional

Isn't amazing that even well done traditional rooms become dated over time??? They are not supposed to, but eventually everything goes out of style. Interior design seems to change through the decades. In the 1950's American furniture was early American. It was very traditional. In the 1960's we were in the space age so things became sleek and modern. In The 1970's there was a new found interest in ecology and wood was prominent in design. In the 1980's there was a new modernism and a return to contemporary. The 1990's brought new wealth with the inception of the internet and a return to traditional design. Today we have returned to am more modern esthetic. You see the world is ever changing and so goes design.    2018 is a year of great turmoil. We are in a modern phase, yet people are longing for the better times of the past. This is why all the old television shows are rebooting. As such interior design right now is transitional. A blend of modern for technology and traditional representing memories of better times.
