This style is perfect for those who love personality, nostalgia and environments with soul… but without giving up the functionality and freshness of current design.

In this article, you will find out how to apply the modern retro style in a simple, charming and full of identity. Come with me!

What is modern retro style?
It is the union of classical elements (inspired by the 50s and 80s) with contemporary touches. Imagine a sofa with stick feet, but coated in a modern fabric. Or a 50s style refrigerator that works with modern technology.

Modern retro celebrates vintage aesthetics without seeming old-fashioned, bringing colour, curves and charm into the home – with balance and authenticity.

How to apply modern retro in your decoration? Here are 5 practical tips:
Start with furniture with personality
Invest in pieces with classic design, such as:

Toothpick feet

Rounded sofas

Low and long racks

Armchairs with curved backrest

Poltrona gives a Classic

Combine with more neutral modern pieces to balance and avoid excesses.

Vibrant colors? Yes, please!
Tones like mustard, olive green, oil blue, burnt pink and orange tile are perfect for this style. You can use:

On a prominent wall

In cushions and objects

Or even in colorful furniture!
The tip is to choose one or two retro colors and combine with neutral tones to make the look light.

Mix textures and materials
The modern retro loves:

Natural wood

Leather (or fake leather)

Velvet

Gilded or coppery metals

These mixtures bring depth and warmth to the environment.

Use household appliances and objects that look old
Retro refrigerators, vintage radios, old lamps and even posters with old-school art are great to create that nostalgic mood.

But choose modern and functional versions – you will have the charm of the past with the comfort of the present.

Don’t be afraid to mix seasons
The magic of modern retro is in the mix. A frame from the 70’s with a contemporary carpet? Can you. A vintage table with modern chairs? You can also.

The idea is to tell a visual story where the past and present coexist in harmony.

Because your home deserves to tell a beautiful story – and it can start today.

Maximalism is a bold, vibrant and full of personality trend that has been winning the heart (and homes) of those who love to express style through environments. Unlike minimalism, it says with all the letters: “more is more!”

And believe me, applying this aesthetic in your home does not mean visual mess or uncontrolled excess. The secret is to make intentional choices, with a lot of soul, color and emotion. And in this article, I will show you exactly how.

What is maximalism, after all?
Maximalism is about celebrating the abundance of shapes, colors, textures and objects. It’s creating environments that tell stories, that show who you are, where you’ve been and what you love.

It’s a mix of styles, memories and elements that together create a rich and unique aesthetic – without fear of exaggerating, without following strict rules.

How to apply Maximalism without losing harmony? Here are 5 steps:

1. Choose a bold color palette
   Forget the total white. Maximalism loves color! You can mix intense tones like emerald green, mustard, royal blue, burgundy, pink… but the trick is to keep a base palette that guides your choices.

Golden tip: Combine complementary colors or play with different shades of the same family.

2. Mix prints with confidence
   Stripes + floral? Animal print + geometric? In maximalism, these combinations work – as long as you use common colors or different scales of pattern to create visual balance.

Use carpets, cushions, wallpapers and curtains as a creative playground!

3. Use and abuse of textures
   Velvet, wood, linen, marble, rattan, ceramic… the more layers of textures, the more interesting the environment. Touch is as important as vision!

Mix of materials is what gives depth to maximalist space.

4. Expose what you love
   Book collections, paintings, travel souvenirs, vintage objects, plants, eccentric lamps – everything can (and should!) be proudly displayed.

Art galleries on the walls are icons of maximalist style.

5. Create focal points
   Even with so much information, it is important to guide the look. It can be a wall with bold wallpaper, a colorful sofa or a bookshelf with assorted items. Choose 1 or 2 elements to master the scene, the rest complements.

No more following rules. It’s time to decorate with soul, color and courage.

Yes, the right light can completely transform the mood of your room – and we’re not talking about beauty alone, but real well-being. So, I have separated here 5 practical and infallible tips to make your little corner much more cozy using only light!

Say goodbye to cold white light!
The first tip is simple, but it makes all the difference: change white bulbs for yellow ones. The warm light brings that immediate cozy feeling, ideal for relaxing at night.

Choose lamps with temperatures between 2700K and 3000K – they are perfect for creating a more calm and intimate environment.

Have more than one light source
A common mistake is to rely only on ceiling light. The ideal is to work with lighting layers. Combine general light (such as ceiling light), back-up light (such as table lamps) and indirect light (LED strips or sconces).

Result? A versatile and much more welcoming environment.

Bet on luminaires with cozy design
Choose luminaires that, in addition to being functional, are also beautiful and match the style of the room. Materials such as rattan, wood, ceramic or fabric give a natural and warm touch to the decoration.

Golden tip: luminaires with fabric dome leave the light more diffuse and soft.

Use indirect light to create atmosphere
Indirect lights are the champions of comfort. Try putting LED strips behind the headboard, behind the mirror or on shelves. The effect is subtle, modern and very relaxing.

Perfect for those who like to create a zen mood, especially before bed.

Dimmers are your best friends
Have you ever thought of controlling the intensity of the light according to the moment? With dimmers, you can adjust the brightness and create different climates – from an energizing setting in the morning to a relaxing setting at night.

And the best: nowadays there are affordable models and easy to install, even with control by mobile phone!

Because sometimes, all you need is a soft light… and a touch of inspiration.

If you want to create an environment that invites you to relax, watch series or receive friends with that warm touch, these 5 tips will inspire you to turn your room into a true haven of well-being.

Start with the right lighting
Forget the strong white light on the ceiling! Warmth lives in soft lights. Bet on floor lamps, lampshades and yellow lights. If you can, invest in dimmers to adjust the intensity according to the mood of the moment.

Bonus tip: candle light (even artificial ones) creates a magical effect without effort.

Textures are everything!
A cozy room calls for layers. Mix fluffy blankets, linen or knitting pillows, soft rugs and flowing curtains. The diversity of textures stimulates the touch and gives that feeling of “I want to stay here forever”.

Don’t save on cushions – they are the sofa’s visual embrace!

Choose a warm and natural color palette
Earthy tones, beige, soft greens, terracotta or even a touch of mustard… these colors bring calm and make the environment more receptive. Avoid too cold or sterile colors if the goal is coziness.

Want to test before painting? Use cushion covers, blankets or frames to see how the colors behave in space.

Bring nature into the house
Plants are life – literally. In addition to making the room more beautiful, they purify the air and bring a unique positive energy. Ferns, jiboias and zamioculcas are great easy-care options.

No time for gardening? Good quality artificial plants also work and last forever!

Personalize with affection
Photos of special moments, travel objects, books you love or even that painting by hand. The real feeling of coziness comes when the house has its face, its history and its affections scattered around the corners.

Cosiness is not about following trends, but about feeling at home with who you are.

Because comfort is priceless – but it has a lot of style. And it starts where the heart lives: in your room.

We’ve separated 5 tips to turn your lobby into a cozy, functional and full of personality – all with a modern and sophisticated touch that we love.

Invest in a Multifunctional Mobile
Space can vary greatly depending on the state and city, smart furniture make all the difference.
Bet on sideboards with drawers, benches with built-in shoe racks or even a slim cabinet. This helps to keep the organization and also adds charm.

Extra tip: choose pieces in natural wood or brushed metal to match different styles – from farmhouse to industrial.

Use a Mirror to Enlarge Space
Mirrors are the best friends of small spaces! In addition to giving a feeling of amplitude, they also reflect natural light, leaving everything more illuminated and elegant.

Designer trick: A mirror with a rustic or gold frame adds instant sophistication – perfect for those who live in regions with more traditional homes.

Create a Wall of Impact (statement wall)
Whether with paint, wallpaper or even a picture gallery, the hall is the ideal place to dare. Choose a palette that reflects the energy of home – earthy tones are super high, while neutrals dominate in coastal cities.

Want something practical? Bet on removable wall stickers. Style without mess!

Capriche in Lighting
A good lighting changes everything. Choose a ceiling lamp that matches the style of the house: modern chandeliers, minimalist pendants or even vintage lanterns. And if you want to create an even more cozy atmosphere, use warm light and floor or table lamps.

Bonus: presence sensors are super useful, especially in states where winter brings shorter days and less natural light.

Add a personal touch
The lobby is a great place to tell your story. Use travel memorabilia, family photos, favorite books or even that amazing find from a local market. This shows who you are before even a “hello”.

Sentimental tip: a board with a welcome message leaves any visitor with a warm heart.
