Modern Comfort Abounds with the York Statement Outdoor Fireplace

May 5, 2023

Style surrounds your family and friends along with warmth from your flickering fire with the York Statement Outdoor Fireplace. Decorate with the sleek, modern flair found among outdoor area rugs, furniture, lanterns, and wall décor. 

Sleek outdoor furniture provides comfort and functionality with a black powder coat and chic straight lines, and include flowery outdoor pillows for added cushioning and style. A personalized art sign displays your name, greetings, or message in a script that perfectly contrasts the modern lines of the furniture. Add a cordless outdoor lantern for added light and ambiance, and a geometric outdoor rug for comfort underfoot. Serve refreshing beverages and snacks while showing off a love for wine with a unique serving tray and accent the space with faux plants for a natural accent.

Shop the elements of the York Statement Outdoor Fireplace on the Touch of Class® web site, or use it as inspiration for your own unique outdoor space.

It’s National Retro Day!

February 27, 2021

It’s time to rewind… and celebrate National Retro Day! Pop the vinyl on the hi-fi, slip on those saddle shoes, or send a letter with a stamp. We’re all here for yesteryear, and that means we’re putting the spotlight on home decor with retro touches. These wall sculptures and furnishings have a throwback mid-century style mixed with modern-day elegance. 

To set your own retro vibe, seek out furnishings with hairpin legs, tapered feet, or rounded geometric shapes. An openwork oblong console table or a Scandinavian credenza can instantly set the mood. When it comes to the walls, you can’t go wrong with atomic-age art, a boomerang clock, or sunburst decor. Minimalist pendant lighting, mod rugs, and statement table lamps all make fun complements.

Get Nostalgic with Mid-Century Modern Home Decor

August 23, 2019

Whether your style is all-out retro or transitional with touches of the past, mid-century home decor is for you! According to Architectural Digest, the movement blossomed from early 20th century Modernism; characteristics of mid-century decor include simplicity of design, organic shapes, and emphasis on function.

You might be wondering how to incorporate this style into your home. Here are a few suggestions:

  • Display an abstract metal wall sculpture with rounded, mod shapes.
  • Swap out traditional magazine racks or accent tables for sleeker styles.
  • Place a geometric area rug on the floor as a statement piece.
  • Update an entertainment center with chic furniture in light or warm finishes.

Decorate Above the Sofa with a Mirrored Wall Art Collage

January 19, 2018

Are you looking to add some contemporary pizzazz to the area above your sofa? Take a look at the display we created with a variety of mirrored metal wall art pieces. We chose various wall accents but kept a cohesive appearance by selecting all mirrored items with golden metallic finishes. To keep the display from looking staid, we mixed round, smooth-edged wall art with sunburst-style pieces. We also varied the sizes (16” dia. up to 31” dia.) to enhance the interest of the arrangement. This type of collage will certainly be the focal point of your room, so select neutrals nearby to avoid competing decor.

  • Select a bold geometric rug with an avant-garde, art deco flair to provide the foundation.
  • Choose complementary window treatments that utilize similar shades.
  • Protect furnishings with solid-color covers to break up the striking patterns found in the room.
  • Illuminate the posh setting with a multi-arm floor lamp finished in a metallic tone.
  • Accessorize with shimmering throw pillows, an abstract sculpture, or a pair of sleek metal sconces.
