A theme is a consistent idea used throughout a room to create a feeling of completeness. These themes often follow period styles. Examples of this are Louis XV, Victorian, Minimalist, Georgian, Gothic, or Art Deco. The evolution of interior decoration themes has now grown to include themes not necessarily consistent with a specific period style allowing the mixing of pieces from different periods. Each element should contribute to form or function or both and maintain a consistent standard of quality and combine to create the desired design.
For the last 10 years, decorators, designers, architects and homeowners have been re-discovering the unique furniture that was development post-war of the 1950's and the 1960's. Some of the trendsetters include Ray Eames and Herman Miller.
Design trends are changing ever more rapidly and this can be seen by the designers, decorators and architects coming from California. Kelly Wearster has created a style now known as Hollywood Regency. It is a use of formal furniture and adding such touches as gingerbread to create a whimsical style. She is also know for finding unique accessories and using them in her design projects.
A new newest design trend has been coming out of San Diego by decorator Jeanine Naviaux of On The Inside Design and Jack Smyer of Smyer Architecture. The two separately have created a new style called California Beach Modern. This is where the California lifestyle mixes the homeowner's love of the sea, from surfing, kayaking or biking and keeping with the clean lines of modern archicecture and decor. This is done through the creating outdoor showers and storage for homeowners so that when they finish their day, the decorator and architect think about the placement of these items, the factors of sun and salt and their impact on the overall scheme of how California Beach Modern design.
