This living room mixes today’s contemporary designs and colors within the framework of a 110-year-old Victorian home. The décor could easily go the traditional route (with wingback chairs and chandeliers) and look great, but we like that these homeowners took a bit of a design risk by using sleek, modern furniture.

Check out the molding: Bold, black lacquer makes the home’s architectural bones really stand out. And streamlined, modern furnishings complete the urban look of the room.
