Tips to bring Parisian style to your home decoration

There are trends that come and go, but Parisian style is one of those trends that survives the passage of time thanks, in part, to its ability to be faithful to its origins without fear of reinventing itself.

Having a classic architecture is a good first step. Although even if you do not have large rooms with high ceilings and large windows you can bring the charm of Paris to your home. Walls and ceilings with moldings, borders and rosettes are a must have in this type of decoration. White -in its most varied versions- is the color par excellence in these environments that, beyond spaciousness and freshness, are perceived as noble and elegant.

High ceilings, large windows and open spaces are not the only things that characterize the French capital's interior architecture. Double doors are also present in designs that are pure inspiration. Finished with friezes or of simple design adorned only with panels, they are an invitation to arouse curiosity to know the interior of the spaces they hold.

Natural light is another of the great protagonists of this type of decoration. But the lighting chapter must be completed with very characteristic lamps that, as you can imagine, exude glamour.

The mythical Bohemian crystal pieces in the form of chandeliers are a classic. Today, however, more contemporary designs are also accepted, giving spaces a truly captivating updated Parisian style.

Going to flea markets and antique shops is a good way to transfer to your home the Parisian style that likes to mix classic pieces with history with other more contemporary aesthetics.

Contrary to what it may seem, eclecticism is also very present in this type of environments. In a Parisian decoration, design and art deco pieces can coexist in harmony with vintage elements from flea markets. How about a classic Louis XV style chest of drawers mixed with an inherited rocking chair? Or some chairs with medallion backs accompanying a contemporary table?

Marble pieces are also common as part of the proposals, as well as freestanding bathtubs, golden details or classic mirrors. In short, unique objects, with history, capable of providing the environments with their own style.

A certain bohemian air runs through the rooms of Parisian houses. In line with this atmosphere, showing one's hobbies and particular tastes is another way to transfer this aesthetic to the decoration.

A few books, a sewing box, a collection of vinyl... There are many resources that you can use to print your own personality to the rooms. Dare to create still lifes with different objects and you will give them a very personal character.

Walls are the perfect support to add Parisian style touches to your home decoration. Living room and bedroom walls are often the usual destination for different artistic pieces. Contemporary paintings and black and white photographic portraits, for example, can be a great option.

The ability to conquer the senses is one of the benefits of this style that finds great allies in textures. The mixture of fabrics is the most common. Silk, linen, chenille, velvet? There are a multitude of possibilities that, in any case, are accompanied by a clear taste for the capitonné for the upholstery of armchairs, headboards, armchairs... The choice is yours!
