Interior designer Huong Vu offers a fresh perspective on incorporating a modern aesthetic into a traditionally styled room. “Introducing modern silhouettes, bold colors, and varied shapes and textures offers a refreshing contrast to traditional elements like herringbone brick in this contemporary living room,” she suggests.

This idea is a perfect demonstration of that balance. A sleek fireplace mantle with herringbone brick detail serves as the room’s focal point, with a geometric black-framed mirror hanging above to accentuate the height and draw the eye upward.
