Personalizing a space and adding meaningful touches, whether through vintage art, classic furniture, or heirloom pieces, is part of what makes the vintage decor trend of 2023 so timeless. "Art is personal, but if you are thrifting or going to flea markets, it is the fastest way to make your house interesting," said designer and best-selling author Emily Henderson on the First in Line podcast.
That's because evoking past eras in your decor while elevating them for modern times is just good design. Avoid the bandwagon trends and take this versatile and sustainable one for a spin. "Along with the Art Deco-inspired spaces we've been seeing and will continue to see, we'll start to see nods to other distinctive styles that are graphic and bold like Brutalism and Bauhaus," says Eddie Maestri, principal architect, creative director + owner at Dallas-based Maestri Studio. British-style furniture and table fabric draping, he says, is also on trend for the year. In fact, European influences all around are making their way into our homes, according to the experts at The Citizenry. It's up to you to decide how to breathe new life into your vintage decor finds — but that's what makes this nostalgic trend so fun to design around.

Bauhaus Influence
"I like a neutral, calm, and textural room. However, when an entire home is designed that way, it feels a little soul-less and boring to me," adds Mendelson.
