Noticing how everyone is distressing bedrooms to broomsticks? It started with coffee tables, bedside tables, and picture frames. We all thought it was going to end with that, well we were wrong. Distressed is climbing the interior design charts. Yes you heard me right, it's right up there next to contemporary, eclectic, and modern. Distressed is also known as "shabby chic," "bohemian," or "coastal," but its definitely sticking around for awhile. Distressed Bohemian Clean white walls grounded with distressed dark cabinets, fun bright colors and patterns with to many plants to count. This style is for the adventure seeking people, travelers, writers, and gardeners just to mention a few. Bohemian is a minimalist style, super easy to bring into your home. Simply paint your walls white and shop at your local second-hand store, while keeping everything you buy as useful as possible. Distressed plays perfectly with the Bohemian home, careless with character. Industrial Distressed Simple clean line furniture, wacky art, and gray everywhere is what we consider modern; on the flip side, adding that distressed wall is what we consider industrial. Yes most of the time we think we have to live in an abandoned warehouse to have that industrial feel, but that's quite the opposite. Take that drop ceiling down, exposing those pipes is all you need to add that industrial vibe. This style is for those bachelors and bachelorettes, but it doesn't stop there. The people who are to busy maintain their homes but still want that luxury feel, industrial is the style for you. Shabby-Chic Distressed
Warmth and character is what inspires the Shabby-Chic lover. Worn Layers of every texture, combined with light colors. The romantics. Those mothers who love warmth but also love the fact their children can't make it dirty because it already looks that way. This style can work in any environment, restaurants, offices, and of course the home. It's as simple as adding a worn table in the midst of your home, and there you have it Shabby-Chic. Conclusion This distressed trend started in the 1980's where everything went, you could mix modern with bohemian, and flower power with colonial, and just for kicks they decided to add distressed in the mix. Distressed is nothing to be stressed about, this is the most relaxed interior style out there. Whether you decide to go distressed or not is up to you, but now you know everything you probably didn't need to know about the distressed trend. Thanks for reading.
