When homeowners would like to update from their traditional home, here are a few ways to get the look from traditional to transitional:
PAINT - This is the easiest and cheapest way to update a gloomy room to a more airy and light-flied room.
NEW LIGHT FIXTURES - Less fussy, streamlined light fixtures can make all the difference. Often, this change can make the most significant difference in the look of a room. And, it doesn't have to be a hugely expensive item.
NEW CURTAINS - To get a more contemporary look, another item which will make a world of difference is to get rid of the heavy, fussy, dark drapery, swags, frills, and any other extras. Surround windows with light and minimal drapery such as sheers or linen curtains.
A NEW RUG - large enough to encompass most of the furniture in the room adds a new look and life to the room. Transitional rugs sometimes incorporate a fresh look from old patterns, color and scale.
ACCESSORIES - Edit accessories to look more "organized", such as everything of a kind placed together instead of being spread out.
Not every possession needs to be shown either.
All of these simple additions can add a fresh look to a traditional interior which aspires to be a transitional room.
Good luck with updating your interiors!
