Mis Matched Beauty
Another new trend in kitchen life is embracing the mis-matched.
This trend makes absolute sense in the modern design climate. Not only has the recession eased the way to more sustainable concepts (that were once just the way people lived), but a mis-matched kitchen fits into the DIY trend that has crossed into every design category.
Apartment Therapy suggests you do something with your chairs (as above)... if you've got matching chairs, paint them different colors, and if you don't, well paint them all the same color. Easy as pie.
Other mixes? Old and Modern worlds, like industrial shelving and re-purposed antique furniture.
It's like we're in the Italian Renaissance again and people want to seem traveled and full of experience... we all want to have been an explorer, settling into home once more.
