I recently moved from a 1920s bungalow where I was happily employing the modern cottage design aesthetic to a more traditional two-story with a hint of New England flavor — in North Carolina. I've since transitioned into being a New Traditionalist, a fusion of sorts that uses traditional style as its foundation and then mixes it up by incorporating some bohemian, modern and vintage elements. So this Ideabook is as much for me as it is for you. — Sarah from The Estate Of Things

I like the fact that although this lamp is a neutral color, it still makes a statement with its shape and size.

I like all kinds of glass hurricanes on mantels and coffee tables. This Ralph Lauren hurricane puts a little spin on the traditional hurricane design with a polished silver rim.

The X-bench is a foundational element for a lot of different styles, so its not surprising that it works in our space. Great for layering under consoles and pulling out for extra seating.

I'd love to put a bone inlay chest in a hallway or in a nook. Although its black and white color is high contrast, its natural floral pattern and material is a good addition to a traditional space.

Every space needs a mirror and I knew instantly I would want to go with a brass finish. This is a traditional brass finish fused with a modern lattice design.

I can't get enough of the natural accessories. These agate bookends are a beautiful blue color; they'll look great on our traditional built-ins.

Madison Modern Home Sarah, love this post... Thank you for wrapping up all the things I adore and putting a name to the style! It's so classic, yet it has a fresh bohemian air to it. The style starts with neutrals, creams and B&W, then mixes in some exotics and brights -- all anchored by a wide stripe or zebra. I also love how it includes the natural world with agate, hand-woven baskets and gorgeous equine photos.
