在《现代复古风格》中，Emily Chalmers——室内设计师和时尚精品店Caravan的店主——展示了在现代环境中使用复古物品是如何为一个家带来幽默、风格和个性的。

装饰应该是有趣和鼓舞人心的，因此不存在风格方面的死规矩；没有“这个必须和那个搭配”。现代复古风格就是要你相信自己的直觉和品味，在寻找合适的物品的过程中运用一点想象力以创造新旧的完美平衡。在本书的**部分“灵感”中，Emily提供了富有想象力和各种各样的家具、灯光、纺织物、装饰以及收藏品和展示的例子。在第二部分“风格”中，她运用自己的装饰理念向读者们展示了如何将外观融合在一起，这样你就可以与《现代复古风格》完美保持一致地烹饪和吃饭、生活、睡觉和沐浴。

In Modern Vintage Style, Emily Chalmers – interiors stylist and owner of hip boutique Caravan – shows how using vintage items in a contemporary context can introduce humour, flair and personality to a home.

Decorating should be fun and inspiring, so there are no style diktats; no ‘this-must-go-with-that’. Modern vintage style is all about trusting your instincts and taste and using a bit of imagination in seeking out the right items to create a perfect balance of old and new. In the first section of the book, Inspirations, Emily offers up imaginative and varied examples of furniture, lighting, textiles, decorating and collections & display. In the second section, Style, she shows you exactly how to pull the look together, applying her decorating philosophy so you can cook and eat, live, sleep and bathe perfectly in tune with Modern Vintage Style.
