What is considered “timeless design” in today’s modern-day world? Are there features of the home people lean towards for a more classic and timeless look versus trendy and design-forward? When people look to purchase and/or furnish a new residence, they look for familiar components that transform a household into a home. In the design sphere, “timeless” can mean preserving and adapting historic architectural spaces and features to modern day life. “Timeless” can also mean blending furnishings, lighting and decor from different eras.
