This is what happens when you decorate with intention instead of impulse. Steve’s home isn’t trendy, and that’s exactly why it works.
He layers antiques, found pieces, and collections that actually talk to each other. Blue and white chinoiserie plates become art in the living room, then reappear in the dining room as a table moment instead of more wall decor. Same motif, different application. That’s repetition done right.
And instead of being matchy matchy, he switches finishes and brings in pewter on the dining room walls to keep things visually interesting. This is how you build a home that tells a story and still feels timeless years later.
