Furniture does not only make your home functional but it also plays the key role in its aesthetic appeal. The chosen furniture should therefore meet your specific needs and taste for style and beauty at the same time. Which one to choose is of course up to your personal preferences but there is one type which is worth considering before you make the final decision - white French furniture.
Many home owners have difficulties deciding between contemporary and traditional furniture. The first one gives the home a touch of freshness and sophistication as well as a high level of comfort because contemporary designs are typically adjusted to the needs of modern time. However, trends tend to change very rapidly and therefore it is not unusual to find oneself with furnishing which looks completely out of fashion within a few years. As a result, many people decide for traditional style as it never goes out of fashion. However, many pieces of traditional furniture are not particularly practical and are very difficult to incorporate in smaller rooms and apartments without making them feel claustrophobic.
White French furniture is a unique style which cannot be categorized neither as traditional nor contemporary. It is most often referred to as shabby chic as it incorporates the features of both traditional and contemporary styles. The distressed look and ornate details give it a character of vintage furniture, while sleek design and soft lines give it a sense of modern sophistication. This unique blend of the two main styles made it increasingly popular among home owners who prefer a modern look but do not want to find themselves with furnishing which looks old-fashioned in the negative sense within a few years as well as among those who prefer the classic look but do not have enough space for massive and bulky pieces of furniture. White French furniture, however, is not only used as an alternative to the traditional and contemporary one but it can also easily be integrated with the existing furnishing regardless of its style giving the home either a touch of vintage appeal or modern sophistication.
In addition to being easy to combine with both traditional and contemporary styles, white French furniture is also easily combined with just about every colour scheme as white goes well with every colour. In addition, white colour creates a sense of freshness and space which makes white painted French furniture an ideal choice for small rooms and apartments as it makes them appear larger than they really are.
White French furniture is available in engineered and solid wood with the latter being superior over the first. Solid wood is considerably more expensive than the engineered one but it is also considerably more durable, while natural wood creates a unique sense of warmth which cannot not be found in engineered wood. In addition to the material from which the furniture is made, it is also highly important to pay attention to quality of workmanship because furniture which is made from quality hardwood such as mahogany for instance according to the highest quality manufacturing standards lasts a lifetime.
