How to bring a vintage ambience in your home

A neutral palette
Gentle pastels and a range of noble neutral hues on walls and other accents are conducive in striking that old-school ambience. The colour of a room is essentially responsible in determining the primary mood of the space, and it does so even when it comes to casting a vintage ambience. Opt for shades like beige, pale lilac, and other pastel shades to instantly liven up the space with elegance.
Organic building materials
The vintage interiors largely comprise of natural materials, especially wood and organic upholstery fabrics. The furniture and accessories are given a rustic and raw look to bring in that archaic romantic impression.
Heritage furniture
Furniture pieces that have been carried down for generations as legacy, make for perfect ways to strike an ancient look along with adding a personality to the space. An ornate chest, a cupboard, an old side-table, and other furniture like these add a vintage vibe to your abode while also carrying an emotional value, enhancing their significance.
Age-old show pieces
You could source some show pieces that are steeped in that vintage essence. Placing antique clocks, typewriter, and other show pieces around your house is one of the easiest and the most effective ways to invite a vintage vibe in your space.
