Habitat plus - Traditionalist

From habitat plus - discover your style

A comfortable and familiar look with a sense of order and soothing muted colours under-pins the Traditionalist personality.

Antique furniture, floral prints and oriental rugs sit beside pale gold walls, wine-coloured accents, big bookcases, mantelled fireplaces and traditional damask-patterned wallpapers. You’ll love collections. As a Traditionalist, you may like the lighter look of pretty summery colours and over-blown florals, rather than the more sober old English feel with timber panelling and plaid fabrics. Being a Traditionalist doesn’t mean you’re outdated. The dignified predictability of this style makes it perfect for those who want their home to be a true haven.

You may also feel at home as a Classic Chic, Luxe Lover or Industrial Urban.
