Riding the Trend
Farmhouse and mid-century modern are undoubtedly cool interior design trends but Luis Dominguez, a realtor with Douglas Elliman Real Estate has some advice before installing ship lap on every wall or converting a spare room with a Mad Men-inspired bar that would make Don Draper proud.
‘A homeowner should be careful to not fall for a trend that will most likely come and go. I would personally give them time to settle and would pick the best option once it’s matured,’ he says. Of course, if you own a home built in the mid-30s to mid-60s, mid-century modern makes sense, but if your house is a Victorian, probably not so much.
