ART NOUVEAU
Living Space Art Nouveau living rooms are quite beauitful and a lot of detailing goes into them. The swooped ceiling is a signature touch. The high ceilings allow for the room to feel more open. That is where historical and modern versions connect. The ceilings being white and and the walls having dark wood walls.
While the space is a larger gathering space there is a little bit of furniture in each one. The sleek lounge chases and round wood tables. The modern version of the room has detailing of arches on the wood walls this connects to the historical version it's almost exact. The historical room is timeless and exquisite.

THE BUNGALOW
Living Room A bungalow style living room was a bit more rustic looking. Consisting of the dark woods and wood base boards. The rustic pendant light above the dining room table was the typical pendant you would see in this type of living room.
The modern and historical one connect not in your typical way the modern version of the living room shows light throughout the space, multiple pendants, and a light wood flooring. The modern dining table is a lighter wood but connects to the historical one by having the same length and shape as well as having the same amount of dining chairs.

New Furniture Chair Gustav Stickley designed this chair and the modern version of it is almost the exact replica. The modern one is a suede material while the historical one is a brown leather. The wood of each chair match each- other perfectly. The modern chair has a large cushion allowing for comfort, while the historical version allows for comfort it is slight thinner. The modern one looks a little bit of mid century modern. The wide seating with thinner legs and a thinner side bar. The modern one represents the historical one in a great way. This chair from the beginning has continued to change in each era but slightly keeping the original look.

Cesca Chair Marcel Breuer’s Cesca Chair Was made during the Bauhaus era. This chair was named after his daughter Francesca. This share was interesting because it did not have the standard for legs, but rather had two front legs that went all the way down into a rectangular shape that made it stable enough to hold up the chair taking place of the back legs. This year looks like it’s made with steel and wood, with patterns in the back.The modern version of the Cesca chair Has the same format as Breuer’s chair, but has stained wood with green cushioning and does not included arm rest. Out of both of the chairs, I personally liked the Modernized version a lot better. The styling of the modern chair would cater to the person’s body and make them more comfortable for seating.
Bauhaus Style
Classical Modern
Barcelona Chair
Classical Modern
The Barcelona Chair was created by Mies van der Rohe. This hair was inspired by the Ancient Roman sella curulis, which is evident in the leg work in his design. In Rohe’s version, the chair had stainless steel legs with deep chair cushioning. In the modern design, the legs are made of wood and the inter-woven cushions are not 3d, but are 2d in the pattern on the chair. Personally, I love the classical chair a lot because this chair fits a lot of aesthetics and is really cohesive to many designs.
International Style
Red and Blue Chair
The Red and Blue chair was created by Gerrit Rietveld. This chair had more of an abstract and geometric approach when it was designed.It included wood at 90 degrees that never touches and use the primary colors as his palette of choice.The modern approach to Rietveld’s design is the same but has a muted turquoise color. I think that the classical version of the chair is great and would be used in a minimalistic design and the modern version could be used in a Lot more design aesthetics. I would like the modern version better, strictly because of its color palette. De Stijl Style
Classical Modern
Classical Block Screen The Block screen was found in the Rue De Lota Apartment. This was a screen made with 25 rectangular lacquers. I love this design because this could still blend in with Modern housing aesthetics for each room.
Modern Block Screen The modern block screen is more transparent in spacing and uses wood. This would be a good method to use when designing more contemporary housing or room that included natural color palettes. Art Deco Style
End of Art Deco: Waterfall Furniture After the Great Depression, the waterfall furniture began to BOOM!!! The classical furniture here is a waterfall patterned dresser that includes gold handle designs. The modern version includes a high detail waterfall design with black stained/painted wood that really brings out the wood design. I personally like the modern version better because of the clashing colors and the high intense waterfall design.
