They have become a decoration trend, as with them we can make any environment elegant, stripped and, believe me, modern ?.
How to use retro
There are no definite pieces: it can be a pillow, a cupboard, a board or even a refrigerator. Generally, what customers are looking for are rugs, decorative objects and ornaments, picture frames, frames, upholstery and pillows.
To those who go beyond, the most sought after objects are fridge or freezer, chairs, armchairs, sofas, rugs, tiles, cabinets, tables and etc ?, says Gabriela.
If you want to innovate decorating a specific room or the whole house, check out the following tips and suggestions:
Kids', guest's or conventional dormitory rooms go well with past-shaped wallpaper in light, neutral colors. Changing furniture can also be a good option. Are there closets that are charming and add a touch of romanticism to the environment ?, suggests Gabriela Polidoro.
"A good choice for those who don't want to spend a lot is to choose carpets and decorative objects, such as radios, tables, lamps and pendants, to decorate the living room," advises the interior designer.
If your idea is to leave the kitchen looking retro, the suggestion is to change cabinets. • The environment must be very well designed so as not to disturb the flow and activities performed there. It is interesting to invest in cabinets, as these items are easy to replace ?, says Gabriela.

To get started, simply choose accessories that best fit the furniture of your chosen environment for change. "Some mixed pieces give a charming tone to the environment", concludes interior designer Gabriela Polidoro.
