The Transitional aesthetic combines Traditional and Modern stylistic approaches that balance classic, timeless elements with a sophisticated sense of the here and now. Straight lines and curves both come into play, as do combinations of dark and neutral color schemes — within the Transitional style, there is a lot of freedom to mix and match the décor. Transitional interiors can be the best of both worlds, as evident in our curated gallery of Transitional primary bedrooms.
In order to come up with the very specific design ideas, we create most designs with the assistance of state-of-the-art AI interior design software.
1. Primary Bedroom Wraps Itself Up in Soft, Velvety Luxury
Primary bedroom wraps itself up in soft, velvety luxury with a plush headboard, upholstered armchair, thick drapery, and overall lush décor. The grays, greens, and silvers of the bedding contrast with the darker hues of the wall and rich wooden border. The room also includes a white tray ceiling and a large arch and radius window, which draws in plenty of natural light so the colors can play with each other some more.

Other elements in the large space include several pendant fixtures suspended from the ceiling and an area rug set over marble tile flooring.

A full-height indoor tree (that once was a plant) has grown too big for its pot and will either have to be trimmed down or moved elsewhere.
