Defining Décor Styles

We all love an amazing variety of styles to choose from as we create our own vision of comfortable, elegant, quirky, or sophisticated rooms. One of the best things about shopping at Mirror Mate or other fine retail outlets is having so many designs, patterns, colors, and styles at your fingertips.

However, with so many options available, finding the style you consider your own can be a challenge. Is your couch traditional, transitional, or modern? Are your family antiques rustic, farmhouse, or glam? How can you transition from an industrial living room to a coastal bathroom? This guide to defining decor styles will point you in the right direction to bring your own vision to life.

Creating a cohesive theme or putting your own spin on an existing room is easier when you understand the terms that architects use to describe home decor.

You can use this resource to choose items all in the same theme, or to blend two styles together with your own eclectic twist. Not sure what to call the style you want? Let’s find out.
