How to Mix Modern with Period in Interiors

Today's Wednesday Ad Break is the second (and final) post in collaboration with the Danish Company BoConcept. They offer a free design service and one of the most commonly asked questions is how to mix their contemporary furniture with the period stuff that you might already own and I thought it would be really helpful for us all to get some advice on that.

I am often asked about mixing different woods or what to do about a single, and much loved, antique piece that might not go with the more modern style the home owner craves. It's not always easy to marry the two styles and BoConcept, who will advise on paint colours as well as furniture, are keen to help customers find their own hygge (yes old term -  but they are properly Danish so they're allowed) as sell you a chair. Indeed, they are very happy to help you find a way to mix your existing furniture with new pieces as it will create a home that is more authentically you.
