Turn Back the Style Clock

Let the groovy 1970s retro styles inspire you to transform your home into a sweet escape.
The 1970s welcomed a decade of freedom and experimentation. This liberated mindset spilled over into every part of life, including home decor. The constraints of traditional style were loosened, and home decor took a turn to artsy personality-centric looks.

Retro styles are about having fun with your space and pushing boundaries. Choose a 70’s inspired color palette with marigold yellow, paprika oranges, and avocado green. Go big and bold by incorporating these vibrant shades into your main furnishings and wall colors. If you’re not ready for the full-time commitment to the rad retro aesthetic, incorporate these colors into pillows and throws instead of upholstery and wall paint.

Bring In the Outdoors With Avocado Green
Creating a cohesive flow between the outdoors in indoors was a new style concept in the 19070s that we are perfecting in the 2020s. Incorporating subtle green shades, like avocado green, is the best way to pay homage to the outdoors. This flattering green shade is subtle enough to not overwhelm a space, and has enough saturation to give your room an earthy, invigorating feel.

Make a Statement With Stone
The 1970s wasn’t an era of humble style choices. Bring this style mindset into the modern age by choosing high-style materials that aren’t too gaudy.

Nothing has more subtle elegance and beauty than stone. Natural marble or marble-look pieces are the best material for achieving a modern-retro design. Incorporate marble into accent pieces like coffee tables, lighting, and decor. The timeless look of marble achieves sophistication without being too showy.

... the 2020s take is more restrained, more curated, cherry-picking 70s-inspired highlights while ditching the dated aspects.

MATERIAL & TEXTURE
Just a Touch of Texture
Texture is making its comeback through the revitalization of retro. The 1970s are loved for their mixture of avant-grade and bohemian styles. Blend velvet, rattan, shag, and fringe for the perfect combination of modern 1970s style.

Velvet couches and chairs exude sophisticated luxury. Pair the opulent upholstered pieces with a comfortable shag area rug for a modern take on a retro classic. Amp up the style of your room even more with touches of rattan storage pieces and accents. The refined look of the velvet pairs with the gritty, earthy texture of the rattan for a Boho-chic retro design.
Boho Texture
Bring touches of texture inside your home with rattan furniture and accent pieces.

Nothing screams modernized 1970s style more than this earthy, branch-like material. The biophilic nature and imperfect look of rattan pay homage to the free-spirit, boho styles of the 70s by making your home’s interior feel like a garden. Pair rattan furniture with greenery and other natural materials to bring the outdoors inside.

Opulent Textiles
Glitz and glamor were all the rage of 1970s fashion. Incorporate velvet materials into your home design for a nod to this mid-century classic.

Retro Rugs
Rugs are the easiest way to transform a space and add a bit of character. They’re a less permanent feature than a sofa or wall color, so step outside your comfort zone and have fun incorporating whimsical colors, patterns, and textures. And no other century pulls off whimsical better than the 1970s.

From shag and fringe to wave patterns and geometric designs, choose an area rug that pulls together your 70s-inspired design and adds a bit of a personality to your space.

LINES & SHAPES
Curves & Arches
A successful retro look bends the rules of style. Harsh lines and squared-off edges are replaced with experimental shapes and loose, sculptural lines. Let the liberated style movement of the 1970s guide your furnishing choices, and think outside the box when it comes to furniture and accent pieces.

Choose lamps, vases, and mirrors that steer from the traditional look, and go for styles with an artisan style and undefined edges. Soften the edges of tables and seating with rounded sides and hairpin legs. Fill your space with organic shapes and designs that make your room feel fluid and fun.
