How does one revive a vintage style in a way that caters to present-day sensibilities?

Elegant long-drawn curtains sweeping the floor or old sofas upholstered in an intricately patterned fabric can also be used.

Shiny or silky cloths reflect light, making the surface look brighter, so they are often used to make a space seem larger. In contrast rough-hewn weaves absorb light, and can create a cozy, relaxed atmosphere. When combined with color, texture can be used to add a sense of luxury.
