The ’70s were bold. But they were also warm. There’s a reason we’re drawn back to that era now. 

The colours feel human. The textures feel tactile. 

The rooms feel lived in. The trick is knowing how to reinterpret it. 

A modern 70s living room doesn’t recreate the decade, it references it. 

And the fastest way to do that? Through art.

A mustard chair and a bold abstract on the wall will take you further than panelled walls ever could. 

A velvet sofa paired with a graphic print instantly nods to the era without becoming parody. 

Plants layered around a framed botanical feel intentional rather than overgrown. 

The modern approach is about editing. 

Choose one or two warm tones, terracotta, ochre, olive. 

Echo them in a single large piece of art. Keep the furniture silhouettes clean and mid-century inspired. 

Low seating. Walnut tones. 

Soft white walls. When you blend the warmth of the ’70s with the structure of mid-century design, you get something timeless. And when the walls feel right, the rest of the room follows.
