Origin: Recalls past decades, often the mid-20th century
Vintage uses objects, colours and patterns that recall earlier decades, often the mid-20th century. Genuine period pieces or faithful reproductions combine to create a nostalgic, warm space with a sense of time.
In Vietnam it blends easily with family memory: timber cabinets, clocks, typewriters, patterned tiles and louvred shutters. You can buy second-hand, restore, or commission pieces in an older style. Check old items for termites, mould and electrical safety before use, and combine them with modern comforts such as air conditioning and LED lighting so the home has soul and remains easy to live in.
