Liberty style: elegance with a vintage aftertaste

Liberty style is a kind of décor that stands out for its sinuous curves, sumptuous, elegant details and fine materials. It has traditionally been sought after by those who want to furnish their home luxuriously and give it a special artistic touch. One element often neglected by other styles but given great care in Liberty is the staircase: to create a sense of flow, consistency and harmony, it's important to arrange pictures carefully to decorate the stairs with elegance and originality. The materials most often used for furniture in this style are wood, glass and iron, all particularly well suited to craftsmanship and essential for the floral, artistic motifs that Liberty style seeks out. In this sense, Liberty style goes perfectly with the focus on recycling and reusing objects typical of decorating an eco-friendly home. Here are some photos ideal for flower pictures and prints to add value to the décor of your Liberty-style home.

Home décor: the perfect lighting for Liberty style

Light is very important in a home decorated in Liberty style and must be used in the right way. Liberty décor loves soft, filtered lighting. Natural light can be altered as you wish with stained glass to create a delicate effect and an atmosphere with a vintage feel. Multicoloured glass panels can bring elegance and liveliness to the living room, but it's always best to use them sparingly, avoiding excess, so as not to weigh down the décor. To complete the decoration of your home, you can take inspiration from the canvas prints in our collection. Here are a few examples.

Decorating the living room in Liberty style

Liberty is a very distinctive kind of décor that gives your rooms an old-world atmosphere. For the living room, we recommend starting with the walls: this elegant style loves wallpaper. You can choose one with a light background and floral motifs so as not to take light away from the room and to create an artistic effect. Furniture rich in inlays and ornamentation can bring class and distinction to your home. You can choose an oak or ash dining table with curved legs, sumptuous and graceful in character. The sofa, too, should have flowing lines, never boxy ones. A large dark-toned rug can contrast with the light wallpaper and complete the décor of your living room. To lighten the overall effect while keeping the composition harmonious, we can certainly draw on pieces and decorations typical of vintage-style home décor. And on the walls? Here are some images of country landscapes to decorate the walls of your Liberty-style home in the best way with nature-themed posters and pictures.
