What is Parisian Style Decor?

Parisian style decor is all about mixing old-world charm with modern sophistication. Think classic furniture pieces, elegant accents, and a neutral color palette with pops of bold color. It's about creating a space that feels lived-in, yet curated, with a sense of effortless elegance.

Key Elements of Parisian Style Decor

1. Classic Furniture: Incorporate timeless pieces like a tufted sofa, a vintage chandelier, or a Louis XVI chair to add a touch of Parisian elegance to your space.

2. Soft Color Palette: Stick to a neutral color palette of whites, creams, and grays, with pops of color in rich jewel tones like emerald green or sapphire blue.

3. Vintage Accents: Add vintage accents like ornate mirrors, gilded frames, and antique rugs to bring a sense of history and charm to your space.

4. Art and Books: Display art prints, photography, and coffee table books to add a touch of culture and sophistication to your home.

5. Fresh Flowers: Nothing says Parisian chic like a bouquet of fresh flowers. Add a touch of romance and elegance to your space with a vase of blooms.

How to Achieve Parisian Style Decor

1. Mix Old and New: Blend vintage pieces with modern elements to create a space that feels eclectic and sophisticated.

2. Embrace Imperfection: Parisian style decor is all about embracing imperfection and creating a space that feels lived-in and comfortable. Try adding some decorative objects (objects d'art) to your shelving for a chic, Parisian vibe. These ones from Andrew Martin are great!

3. Add Texture: Incorporate plush fabrics like velvet, silk, linen or textured metal to add depth and richness to your space.

5. Less is More: Keep your space clutter-free and focus on quality over quantity. Choose a few statement pieces that speak to you and let them shine.

Remember that Parisian style is all about details and keeping things, classy, chic and stylish.
