… you should stay in my good graces⋆𐙚₊

(actress!wanda x fem!reader)

tags | romantic asf, a little hurt/comfort, wanda maximoff needs a hug, reader is a reassuring simp, together? they’re both gross horny freaks :3 (18+)

It’s late, around 9 PM, and the room is dimly lit, casting long shadows that dance along the walls. You’re lounging on the couch of the hotel suite, feeling the gentle buzz of the wine you’ve been sipping. She’s there with you, still dressed in her suit for her upcoming movie’s press junket. Her hair, now a shade of molten chocolate, falls loosely around her face, with random pieces tucked behind her ears. She’s wearing minimal makeup, despite her lips being coated in a subtle reddish oil, and her eyes shimmer gold with every bat of her lashes.

The evening has been easygoing since arriving back, a perfect blend of quiet conversation and shared silences as your girlfriend winds down from being social. You watch her as she took another sip of her wine, her eyes glinting in the soft light. Suddenly, she sets her glass down and rises from the couch with a playful glint in her eye. "I want to play a song for you," she announces with a smile.

You watch as she heads for the old record player tucked in the corner, a vintage piece that had caught her eye the moment you checked in last night. The suite modern charm was evident in every detail, from the heated floors to the spacious kitchen, but the record player, with its polished wood and brass accents, seemed to be the centerpiece of the room. Wanda had been drawn to it immediately, her fingers tracing the smooth surface, a look of nostalgia softening her features.

She flips through the small collection of vinyl records stacked beside it, her brow furrowing in concentration as she searches for the perfect track. After a moment, she lets out a triumphant little sound, pulling out a record with an old, faded cover. The worn label reveals the artist: Sam Cooke. She handles it with reverence, lowering it onto the turntable with a practiced hand. There's a small, satisfied hum as she brings the needle down, and the soft crackle that follows fills the room like the first breath of life. For a moment, everything is still, suspended in the quiet, until the first sweet, soulful notes of "Cupid" drift into the air.

The melody is timeless, a rich cascade of sound that wraps around you like an old, familiar blanket. You recognise the tune, though it's been years since you last heard it. The notes are tender and full of emotion, evoking memories of a time long past yet strangely present in this moment. The room, bathed in the warm glow of the lamps adorned around the space, seems to swell with the sound, the music curling around the furniture, the walls, and finally, the two of you, as if drawing you closer together.

Wanda turns back to you, her eyes bright with anticipation, waiting for your reaction. She knows you love this song, and she loves it too, perhaps even more.

“I love this song.” She reaches out a hand, gesturing for you to join her. You stand, taking it without hesitation, feeling the warmth of her fingers intertwining with yours. The music flows between you like a current, and Wanda begins to sway, drawing you into the rhythm. Her voice, soft and unguarded, rises to meet the melody as she sings along with Cooke:

“Cupid, draw back your bow...”

With her eyes locked on yours, the world around you fades into the background. The record spins, the music lilting through the room as you both begin to dance, a slow, easy movement that feels as natural as breathing.

You follow her lead, letting the song guide your steps. Wanda’s voice, sweet and slightly off-key, weaves through the music, adding her own touch to the tune. There's something so intimate, so pure in the way she sings to you, for you, her voice a quiet confession wrapped in melody.

“You know," she murmurs, her voice a soft whisper against the instruments, "I've never felt like this with anyone before."

"I feel the same, Wands. Every time I'm with you, it's like the world finally makes sense."

She tilts her head down slightly, her eyes searching yours. "Do you ever wonder if this is too good to be true? Like, maybe we're dreaming, and one day we'll wake up, and it’ll all be gone?"

You stop swaying for a moment, cupping her face gently in your hands. "No, Wanda. This is real. We’re real." You lean in, pressing a soft kiss to her lips, feeling her relax into your touch, “You’re never getting rid of me, baby.”

Her hands move to your back, pulling you closer, as if she needs to feel you, to confirm that you’re really here. "Promise me," she whispers, her voice trembling just slightly.

You press your lips to hers again, a gentle, lingering kiss that holds all the promises you can’t yet put into words. “I promise,” you whisper against her, “let me show you.”

Her worries melt away, replaced by a deepening trust as your hands run through her hair, pulling her impossibly closer. The pressure of your lips increases, growing bolder as you feel her responding to you, her own lips parting slightly, inviting you to explore further. A soft sigh escapes her, and it echoes in the stillness around you, a sound that sends a shiver of warmth through your entire body.

The kiss grows, building from that initial, tender connection into something more passionate, more urgent. You can feel the tension in your chest, a yearning that rises and swells with every heartbeat, driving you to close any remaining distance between you. Your other hand slides to the small of her back, pulling her closer. Unable to feel the heat of her body through the thick suit jacket, your hands trail inside the material, mapping the thin waist of the taller woman.

She’s wearing nothing underneath.

You deepen the kiss further, your tongue brushing against her lower lip, seeking entrance, a silent request that she grants as her lips part further, allowing you in. Her hands find their way to your shoulders, gripping lightly as she leans in. The kiss is no longer just gentle; it’s filled with a fervent need, an unspoken desire that’s been building between you since the beginning of the night. Since you first saw her in this outfit. She’s kissing you back with equal intensity, every movements matching yours, the both of you lost in this moment, hands groping all and everything you can.

“I want these off,” Wanda husks, pupils blown entirely, as she hurriedly pulls at the zip of your jeans, “… now.”

You don’t bother helping the older woman, as you fling your arms around her to pull the jacket off her toned shoulders, a swift competition to see who can undress who first. You managed to discard the jacket before she can shove her hand down your pants, your fingers already groping at her chest. Your lips making their way down from her neck down to her breasts, lapping at the pebbled nipples before you.

With her hand finally between your legs, stroking ever so languidly, she guides you back towards the couch. You’re too distracted to notice the change until you’re on your back and she’s on top of you. Her tongue forces its way into your mouth before you could protest, hips doing most of the work appeasing you, as she thrusts ever so slowly. Giving up, your legs fall open, calves wrapping around the brunette as if to keep her flush against you.

The kiss comes to an end, much to your dismay, with a singular strand of saliva hanging between you both.

“You’re such a brat. You joke, hands smoothing over her ass, pulling forward.

“Says the one who was racing to undress me first.” She immediately retorts, and you push your luck, retaliating by smacking her ass. She gasps before cutting you a sharp look. Grinding harder against you, her head bends to kiss along your pulse. Her canines sink into the soft skin, a sharp sting following closely before her warm tongue laps along the bruised skin.

“Do that again and I won’t fuck you.”

Your mouth opens a few times, but you weren't sure what to say. You only managed a please, which felt pathetic even to your own ears. The laughing quirk of her lips revealed how little Wanda takes you seriously, and why would she? You were already trembling, unable to form a single thought.

So easy.

Turning your head so she could press her lips against yours, she was licking into your mouth, just separating enough so you didn't suffocate, and even then, it did nothing to help the threads of spit remaining between you both.

But it didn't appear that she was going to stop anytime soon, as her fingers trail up your thigh until she reaches your underwear. Her lips twist into a smile at the feeling of the damp fabric, molding to you. Lithe digits sneak inside, spreading your lips, grazing just under your clit and then down low. “This all for me, baby?”

The feeling so overwhelming, you’re unable to reply. Wanda merely laughs before pressing into you, revelling in how easily you swallowed her fingers, hips moving in time with her. The rooms fills with sounds of breathless moans and her fingers fucking you, her other hand snaked under your top to pinch at your nipples.

“Feels so good.” You manage to stutter out, and bring her down to your lips. Once again, locked in another fervent kiss, moans spilling into her mouth.

A knock on the door jolts you out of your reverie, lips smacking as you pull away, eyes drawn towards the source. Panic surges in your chest as you remember earlier Wanda had invited some of her cast mates to your suite for a games night. Helplessly, you attempt to get your girlfriend to stop, your hand curling around her wrist pumping into you, but she didn’t. Instead, she speeds up, fingers now sliding in at a bruising pace in comparison to her earlier slower one. Your knees were trembling, cunt pulsing around her rigid knuckles, as her thumb circles your clit desperately.

“Gotta be quick, baby,” She huffs, energy depleting with each thrust, whispering terms of endearment as you convulsed, muffling your sounds of pleasure into her neck. Her chest heaves, a fine sheen of sweat glistening on her skin as she hovers over you.

You couldn't help the way your body shudders, so sensitive, every nerve ending screaming for her to stop and yet for her to continue. Trembling a little less now, her fingers slip out of you cautiously, soothing along your flushed skin despite being coated in you. She studies the room accessing the damage before turning back towards you, noticing you’re already looking up at her, the buzz of your orgasm fading away slightly.

To be honest, you didn’t want games night to happen.

You wanted to spend the rest of your night wrapped up in your girlfriend’s arms, listening to her steady heartbeat as she held you close. But you knew Wanda was shy, and in this industry, she struggled to make friends. It was a hard world to navigate, full of people who wanted something from her or who couldn’t look past her fame to see the wonderful person she was beneath it all. You didn’t want to get in the way of that, all because you were feeling needy and wanting her sole attention. It was her night. Wanda deserved to have friends, people she could laugh with, people who would remind her that not everyone wanted something from her. So, despite the ache in your chest, you pushed your feelings aside, biting down on your lip, trying to suppress the soft whimper that threatens to escape, but she notices.

She always notices.

“Shh, it’s okay,” she coos, leaning down to press a kiss to your forehead, and then your cheek, and then your nose. Her lips were warm, comforting, grounding you back to the present. “You did so well, sweetheart.” She leans down placing one last kiss – this time upon your lips, “You know I love you, right?”

You nod, a shy smile curling at the corner of your mouth. “I love you too.”

“Good,” she hums softly, her voice carrying a note of finality. “Now, come on,” her hand behind your back guiding you to your feet, “help me tidy up?”

You groan playfully, your muscles protesting as you try to follow her lead. You wobble when you stand, a reminder of just how thoroughly she’d loved you, and she chuckles, steadying you with a hand on your waist

“Easy there.” She teases, holding tight to your waist. You feel her breath tickle the top of your head, and then, with a gentleness that contrasts the intensity of earlier, she places a chaste kiss upon your tousled hair, before collecting her jacket and buttoning it up around herself like before.

"Oh, Tony’s gonna have a field day when he sees you," she murmurs, the amusement in her voice impossible to miss. You can almost picture it now—Tony’s raised eyebrows, the sly grin that would stretch across his face when he spots the two of you looking disheveled as ever, and the sex joke already bursting free from his smart ass mouth.

“Whatever, Maximoff.” You push her away and in the direction of the door, “go let them in.”

Haunted or Creepy?

Reo Mikage x reader

Flufftober Day 5: Little Doll

~ After wandering into an antique shop, Your boyfriend notices a strange doll has caught your attention. . 

All of the well-kept trees in the plaza are adorned with the most breathtaking collage of leaves. They rustle slightly in the wind, still too stubborn to fall. It’s beautiful, but you know that Reo Mikage has them all beat. 

Your soccer star boyfriend has elected to forgo his training clothes in favor of something a bit more his style for your date today. You are sure that his plain yet perfectly fitted sweater costs more than your entire wardrobe, but judging by the way he hurries over to you with the two full cups of hot apple cider in his hands, he doesn’t care in the slightest about getting dirty. 

Especially if it’s for you.

“Here, for your hands.” He smiles, holding out one of the cups for you to take. Wisps of his rich purple hair fall delicately onto his face, somehow making him look even more handsome.

“Thank you,” you say gratefully, taking the paper cup. Its spiced warmth helps you realize just how chilly your fingers have gotten in this wind. 

“Is it just me, or has it gotten a lot colder since we started walking out here?” He asks, looking up at the deceptively sunny sky. As if hearing his words, Mother Nature sends a bone-chilling gust of wind your way. The cold air penetrates through your light sweater and sends teeth-chattering shivers down your spine.

You tense up and place the paper cup up to your cheek in an attempt to warm yourself up. “D-definitely n-not j-just y-you.”

His eyes widen in concern as he pulls you closer to him. “Let’s head inside one of the shops where it’s warm. I’ll call my driver to come pick us up.”

“You’ll call your driver?” you giggle, leaning into his warmth, “You really are a pretty rich boy.” 

“Oh, I’m sorry.” he coos, placing his chin on top of your head. Would you rather walk?” 

“Nope,” you say quickly, not wanting to be out here freezing your ass off. “D-drivings good.”

An amused chuckle slips past his lips as his hand slides securely on your lower back, guiding you towards a weathered wooden door. “This place looks open; let’s check it out.”

You nod and glance down at the simply drawn chalkboard sign that rests on the pavement. “It looks like an antique shop.”

“Interesting,” he hums, reaching towards the faded brass knobs. “I don’t think I have ever been in one of these.”

You snort and shake your head in amusement. Of course, he had never been in an antique store before. You have only met his parents a few times, but they don’t seem to be the type of people who are interested in buying someone’s old wedding china or vintage bedroom furniture.

“Well then, I’m glad that I get to be here for your first time.” you wink, bumping into his cashmere-coated chest. 

“I feel so supported,” he laughs, playing along with your antics. His arm stretches over your head to hold the door open for you. 

The shop is dimly lit by rustic floor lamps. The light reflecting off of the blown glass shades creating patterns on the thickly carpeted flooring. Gone is the harsh chill of the wind as it is replaced by the heavy scent of dust. It surrounds you, and you can’t help but feel in your gut that something is off about this place.

“Woah, look at these lunch boxes,” Reo says, looking over at a glass display case filled with printed metal lunch boxes with various cartoon and comic book characters posing on the front. He puts his hands up on the glass and peers in closer to get a better view. “I saw one like this at a charity auction a few years back, and they made a killing. I wonder if these are the same kind?”

“That’s so cool.” you grin, trying to focus on just how adorably excited your boyfriend is and not on the strange feeling of dread that has clung to you ever since you have walked into the store. 

“I wonder what other cool stuff they have in here?” he grins, taking your hand and pulling you deeper into the shop. 

“I wonder,” you hum, playing with the tassels on a beaded lampshade as you are guided deeper into the store. You pass the checkout counter and a rather distracted employee who is tapping furiously on their iPad. The unmistakable sounds of Candy Crush playing through the muffled speakers. 

Turning the corner, you notice a tall glass display case sitting on a polished wood dresser. Your stomach seems to be tying itself in knots as you continue to take step after apprehensive step. If Reo feels the same way, he does not show it. 

Have you ever looked at something and said, ‘Yeah, that is totally haunted?” 

The porcelain-faced doll in the display case just screams it. It’s deep dark eyes glimmer with sinister intent and makes your skin crawl. You want to leave, you want to be as far away from this toy as possible, screw it if it’s cold outside you don’t want to be here another minute. But you feel that if you take your eyes off this thing even for a second, it’s gonna get you. 

“Woah, cool doll.” Reo says innocently, tossing an arm over your shoulder. “You’ve been looking at it for a while; let me get it for you.”

“No!” you say much louder than you initially meant to. Your eyes grow wider and wider in fear as you imagine what it would be like to take that creepy thing home, hiding it away in some far-off closet or crawlspace only for it to find you in your room when you least expect it.

Reo looks concerned at your outburst and takes a step back, raising his hands up in the air innocently. “Woah, I guess not.” he chuckles. 

“Do you not see how creepy that thing is?” you huff pointing at the case. “There is no way it’s getting anywhere near my place or yours.”

“What?” he asks, his lips twitching as he tries and fails to keep from laughing. “It’s a bit creepy, but it’s got some charm to it.”

“Charming? That doll is one hundred percent cursed, or possessed, or whatever.” you say seriously. Making the mistake of taking your attention off the doll to watch the wonderful way Reo’s amethyst-colored eyes twinkle as he laughs. 

“Oh come on, it’s not that…” he turns to look at the doll, and all the color drains from his face. “It just moved.”

“Stop messing with me.”

“It. Just. Moved.” he repeats again with a deadly serious tone.

You look back at the case and want to hurl. Just seconds ago, the doll was staring blankly ahead, but now her head has twisted to the side, exposing her copper-colored ringlets and staring right at you. Those dark eyes boring into your soul. “It moved.”

“We gotta go now,” he says worriedly, taking your hand and pulling you away from the item. His strong legs lead you out of the store and down the walkway for your lives. 

“W-wait.” you pant, lungs burning as you dig your heels in. As a professional athlete, his stamina is much better than yours, so he probably could’ve dashed the two of you all the way home. 

“Yeah, that thing was definitely haunted.”

Fancy Wall Lights for Living Room

When it comes to indoor lighting, wall lights can completely transform the atmosphere of a living room. They are not just functional, but also serve as beautiful design elements that add personality and elegance to your space. Fancy wall lights, in particular, can elevate the aesthetic of your living room, creating a sophisticated ambiance while offering practical illumination. Whether you’re looking for modern LED fixtures, vintage-inspired sconces, or statement pieces that add flair, there’s a vast variety to choose from. In this article, we’ll explore different styles, designs, and ideas for incorporating fancy wall lights into your living room to create the perfect ambiance.

Benefits of Wall Lights in Your Living Room

Wall lights are more than just decorative pieces—they also provide excellent functionality. In a living room, wall lights can serve multiple purposes: they can offer task lighting, create a relaxing environment, and highlight certain areas or features of the room. Unlike ceiling lights that can sometimes be overpowering, wall lights are often more subtle, giving you better control over the mood you want to set.

1. Versatility in Placement

One of the primary advantages of wall lights is their versatility. You can place them strategically to highlight certain features of the room, such as artwork, a beautiful indoor plant, or an architectural feature like a fireplace. Wall lights are also ideal for smaller spaces, where large floor lamps or table lamps might be impractical. They allow you to add lighting without taking up valuable floor space, making them perfect for compact living rooms or minimalist interiors.

2. Efficient Use of Space

Wall lights also help maximize space in a room, especially when combined with other types of lighting. For instance, LED wall lights indoor can be used alongside overhead lights to create a layered lighting effect, offering both ambient and focused illumination. This combination of light sources can transform the room into a cozy and inviting environment.

Choosing the Right Fancy Wall Lights

When selecting fancy wall lights for your living room, it’s essential to consider your existing decor, the room’s size, and the type of ambiance you wish to create. Here are some factors to keep in mind:

1. Style and Design

The design of your wall lights should complement the overall aesthetic of your living room. For a modern and sleek look, you can opt for minimalist LED fixtures with clean lines. On the other hand, if you prefer a more traditional or vintage style, you can choose ornate sconces or wall-mounted lamps with intricate details. Consider choosing designs that match your furniture, wall colors, and other decorative elements in the room.

2. Lighting Functionality

The type of lighting you need will also affect your choice of wall lights. For example, if you're looking for lights to illuminate a reading nook or accentuate a feature wall, you might want adjustable wall lights with a focused beam. Alternatively, if you're aiming to create ambient lighting, opt for fixtures that diffuse light gently across the room.

3. Material and Finish

Wall lights come in a range of materials such as metal, glass, wood, and even ceramic. Choose materials that complement the finishes of your furniture and other fixtures. For example, brass or gold wall lights can add a touch of luxury to a classic living room, while matte black or chrome lights might suit a contemporary space.

Wall-mounted plant lights can provide the necessary lighting for your plants, especially those that thrive in lower light conditions. Indoor garden LED lights are specifically designed to cater to the needs of plants, offering the right spectrum of light for photosynthesis.

Best Plants for Indoor Plant Lights

Some plants, like succulents and ferns, thrive in bright, indirect light, while others prefer low light conditions. If your living room doesn’t get much natural sunlight, consider incorporating indoor flowering plants low lights such as peace lilies, pothos, or snake plants. These low-maintenance plants can survive with minimal light and will benefit from a well-placed plant light. Not only do they bring a refreshing touch of nature into your home, but they can also enhance the overall aesthetic of your living room.

Creating a Green Oasis with Fancy Wall Lights

Fancy wall lights can be paired with indoor plants to create a green oasis in your living room. Whether you choose wall-mounted shelves to display your plants or place them near the lights for added warmth, integrating plants with lighting creates a harmonious environment. The interplay between soft lighting and lush greenery enhances the mood and makes the room feel more inviting and tranquil.

Incorporating Fancy Wall Lights into Your Living Room Design

Now that we’ve explored the different styles and benefits of indoor fancy lights and wall-mounted lighting solutions, it’s time to consider how to integrate them into your living room design. Here are a few ideas to help you create a visually appealing and functional lighting setup:

Chic and Cozy: How to Achieve the Ultimate Home Comfort

Creating a space that’s both chic and cozy is the ultimate design goal for many homeowners. You want your home to feel inviting and stylish, a place where you can relax after a long day while also showcasing your personality and taste. With the right combination of furniture, textures, and decor, you can easily blend sophistication with comfort. Here’s how to achieve the perfect balance between chic and cozy in your home.

1. Layer Soft Textures

One of the quickest ways to make a space feel cozy is by layering soft textures. Think plush throw blankets, fluffy pillows, and tactile rugs. Opt for soft fabrics like velvet, linen, and wool to add warmth and comfort without sacrificing style. A velvet throw on a leather couch or a wool rug on hardwood floors creates a sophisticated yet inviting atmosphere. Don’t forget to add textured cushions in various shapes and sizes to make your space feel extra snug.

2. Use Warm, Neutral Colors

Neutral tones like soft beige, warm greys, and creamy whites are the foundation of a cozy and chic home. These colors not only create a serene and relaxed environment, but they also provide a versatile backdrop for adding color pops through accessories, art, or furniture. To make the space even cozier, consider warm metallics like brass or gold accents to elevate the look while still maintaining a relaxed vibe. A neutral palette can look polished while feeling homey, especially when layered with texture and softness.

3. Incorporate Comfortable, Stylish Furniture

Furniture plays a key role in combining style and comfort. Opt for pieces that are both functional and inviting, like a deep, comfortable sofa or an oversized armchair perfect for curling up. Look for furniture with clean lines but soft edges—think a sleek, modern couch with plush cushions, or a sophisticated accent chair with a soft, rounded shape. Adding a large, inviting ottoman or a cushioned bench to your living area makes the space even more functional and cozy.

4. Bring in Natural Elements

Natural materials not only add visual interest but also bring a sense of tranquility to a space. Incorporate wood, stone, or greenery to create a grounded, organic vibe. A wooden coffee table, stone accents, or an array of houseplants can introduce nature’s calming energy into your home. Plants, in particular, add life to a room, making it feel fresher and more inviting. Opt for easy-care plants like succulents, snake plants, or ferns to keep things low-maintenance yet high-impact.

5. Use Lighting to Set the Mood

The right lighting can make all the difference when it comes to comfort. Soft, ambient lighting creates a warm and inviting atmosphere, ideal for cozy nights in. Use a mix of table lamps, pendant lights, and floor lamps to layer the lighting in your space. Opt for dimmable bulbs to adjust the mood depending on the time of day or the vibe you want to create. Candles are also a great way to add both light and a touch of warmth, whether placed on a coffee table, a mantel, or in the bathroom.

6. Create Inviting Nooks

An inviting nook or corner is the epitome of cozy chic. Carve out a little retreat in your home where you can relax, read, or simply enjoy a quiet moment. This could be a window seat with plush cushions, a cozy corner with a comfy chair and a good reading light, or even a small, intimate dining nook. The key is to design a space that feels intimate and personal, perfect for winding down after a busy day.

7. Personalize with Art and Decor

Adding personal touches to your space is essential for creating a cozy home that also reflects your style. Whether it’s a collection of family photos, a gallery wall with your favorite artwork, or unique vintage finds, make sure your decor feels meaningful to you. Personal items like travel souvenirs, heirlooms, or handmade pieces add warmth and individuality to a chic home. Just be sure to balance decor with space—too much clutter can detract from the coziness.

8. Keep It Simple but Sophisticated

Simplicity is key to creating an elegant, comfortable home. Avoid overcrowding spaces with too many decor items or furniture pieces. Instead, choose a few statement pieces that serve both form and function. Think of a sleek sofa paired with a minimalist coffee table, or a simple, yet striking, light fixture that draws the eye without overwhelming the room. When in doubt, less is often more—allow the space to breathe and let your key pieces shine.

Conclusion

Achieving the perfect balance of chic and cozy in your home is all about combining comfort with style. By layering soft textures, incorporating natural elements, and selecting furniture that’s both stylish and inviting, you can create a space that feels luxurious yet lived-in. Add personal touches with art and decor, and use lighting to create a warm, welcoming atmosphere. With a little thought and care, your home can be the ultimate sanctuary—chic, cozy, and designed to make you feel at peace.

The New Classic: How to Make Timeless Design Feel Fresh and Modern

Timeless design is the art of creating spaces that feel enduring, elegant, and always in style. But how do you make classic design feel fresh and relevant in today’s world? The key is to blend traditional elements with modern touches, creating a balance that feels both sophisticated and contemporary. Here’s how to give classic design a modern twist while maintaining its enduring appeal.

1. Mix Traditional and Contemporary Furniture

One of the best ways to create a modern take on classic design is by mixing traditional furniture pieces with more contemporary ones. For example, pair a vintage-inspired sofa with a sleek, minimalist coffee table or mix an antique wood cabinet with modern, streamlined chairs. This fusion of old and new adds visual interest and keeps the space feeling dynamic without losing the timeless charm of traditional design.

2. Embrace Clean Lines and Minimalism

While classic design often involves ornate detailing, a more modern approach focuses on simplicity. To keep a timeless design feeling fresh, look for furniture with clean lines and a less-is-more attitude. Think of a classic Chesterfield sofa, but in a more subdued, streamlined shape, or a traditional wingback chair with modern upholstery. Clean lines allow the design to feel fresh, without losing its sophistication.

3. Use a Neutral Palette with Pops of Color

A neutral color palette—think whites, beiges, grays, and blacks—is at the heart of timeless design. But to make it feel modern, add pops of bold color through art, accessories, or furniture. A rich emerald green or navy blue throw pillow, or a statement piece of artwork, can bring energy to a neutral room without overpowering its classic elegance. This small infusion of color gives the space a modern feel without sacrificing its timeless foundation.

4. Incorporate Modern Materials

Classic design often relies on traditional materials like wood, leather, and brass. To make it feel more modern, integrate materials that are both fresh and timeless. Think marble countertops, polished concrete floors, or glass and metal lighting fixtures. The mix of old-world materials with newer, sleeker finishes adds a contemporary edge to a traditional space, while maintaining a sense of elegance.

5. Reinterpret Patterns and Textures

Classic design often incorporates patterns like stripes, damasks, and florals. To give these elements a modern twist, reinterpret them with updated materials or a more minimalist approach. For example, instead of heavy floral curtains, opt for a subtle floral print on a throw pillow or rug. Likewise, geometric patterns or abstract art in place of traditional damask can create visual interest while keeping the space feeling fresh and contemporary.

6. Focus on Statement Lighting

Lighting is one of the most powerful tools for updating a classic space. A traditional chandelier can be modernized by choosing one with a sleek, contemporary design. Likewise, instead of traditional lamps, try sculptural or statement light fixtures made from materials like metal or glass. Mixing old and new lighting styles—like pairing a classic brass floor lamp with a modern pendant light—adds instant modernity to any room.

7. Add Subtle Tech Upgrades

Classic design doesn’t have to be at odds with modern technology. To keep your space feeling current, add subtle tech upgrades that blend seamlessly into the design. A built-in sound system, smart thermostats, or a hidden TV in an antique cabinet allow you to enjoy the benefits of modern technology without compromising the timeless feel of the space. These invisible upgrades ensure your home is both stylish and functional.

Conclusion

The beauty of classic design is its ability to stand the test of time. But by blending traditional elements with fresh, modern touches, you can create a space that feels as relevant today as it will in the years to come. Whether it’s through furniture, lighting, or materials, mixing old and new helps to keep timeless design feeling fresh, while honoring the elegance and sophistication that makes it so enduring.

Unit 6 Reflective Journal - Lim Lin Year 2 Production Arts for Screen

For our first unit in the second year, we were tasked to created a 3d environment through three randomly selected prompts. My prompt was an Interior Design Shop in Buenos Aires, Argentina in 1989.

As shown in the slide, there is a significant influence of European architecture in Buenos Aires, especially French architecture. After looking into the different architecture styles seen in the city, I began researching on places that create distinct visual identities for the city.

I first looked into local markets and shopping districts as they are the spots popular among tourists. While the items range from handmade local crafts to international brands, a common feature of these stores is the presence of European architecture in these places.​

Unique locations and symbols are also strong indicators of the city which I could use. Caminito is a street that became a tourist attraction due to its vibrant and saturated colours. While this is eye-catching and is an obvious indicator of the location, I chose not to use this street since it will cause the final product to look too sterotypical.

Jacaranda trees are also appealing due to its unusual colour compared to other plants that grow at the side of roads and pathways. As such, I would try to incorporate this visual indicator of Buenos Aires into the scene.

I then looked into trends and movements in the 1980s which I could implement into the design. Bright and saturated colours are prevalent in both fashion and design, one of which included the Memphis group.

A unique feature of the 80s are also neon light installations. Neon lights Made a resurgence in the 1980s. Today, places such as malls would appear dated if strips neon or LED lights are present.

I also did some research into alternative styles in the same time period that greatly contrasts the bright neon aesthetics more commonly associated with the 1980s.

As this is a very tumultuous time period of Argentinians in the 1980s, I would focus largely on how the impact of the economic crisis greatly differs between individuals of different social statuses. The context of 1980s Argentina could be used to create a narrative based on a character owning a retail store during an economic crisis, when the middle class have significantly less purchasing power so sales could be made.

I looked into retail storefronts as they are an iconic feature of 80s malls, it can also be used to design signage and create colour palette for the scene.

Interior design magazines can be used to to indicate time period and trade. It can also be used as image textures for the environment.

Display racks and furniture create the look of an interior design shop, selecting items that follow the 80s design trend​. Brass floor lamps such as the one pictured are expensive, this also shows that this store is selling items only the rich are willing and able to buy.​ Peace lilies are a popular house plant in the 1980s due to its feature in NASA's Clean Air Study​, so I would also include this in my design. As columns were a significant design feature in the 80s, I wanted to add a vintage item that has similar textures and shape​, so I added a plaster lamp.

The other furniture for display will be used from the ones shown in the previous slide.

For modelling, I looked into how sci-fi vehicles in animation were designed. Most of which have close proportions to their real life counterpart, however they would have smoother and more curved finishing and reduced details for easier animation.​

Although most 80s animation aesthetics that are remembered today feature a dark night sky and city illumination, this strayed far from the warm colours of Buenos Aires. ​As such, I leaned more into warmer environments like the screencaps in Robot Carnival and The Little Mermaid.​

I also did some research on early 80s animations such as early Looney Tunes cartoons, however the minimalistic and simplified style inspired by art deco motifs did not suit the direction I was going for.

I then began designing using the new idea of an interior design shop owner travelling around the city using a camper van.

(Top left to bottom right)​

1971 MERCEDES-BENZ T2 L508DG Camper-van: Nice shape and colour, but looks too close to 70s retro aesthetics​

1969 MB LO1112 Colectivo: A strong visual indication of Buenos Aires, but clashes with my storyline and colours are too bold​

1980 Mercedes Benz 508 D Motorhome: Made close to time period and large enough to practically serve the function as an interior design shop, but not visually interesting​

Ex-Police Special Forces Mercedes T2 Camper: The van that gave me the idea of making a store from the outside of a vehicle, however the shape isn’t interesting and the small size makes the functionality hard to believe

The first block out was made using a single mesh, which I then regret because it became very difficult to create loop cuts or use the Boolean modifier. Fortunately, I was still able to use its shape as a guide when redoing the model with separated parts.​

As the style I was going for (late 80s sci-fi animation) has relatively normal proportions and simplified details, I did the same for the van as small details were removed, to make the scene less realistic and to save time for this unit.​

This also allowed me to use the furniture and display racks I found during research as reference images for the items that will be displayed in the store.​

For the store layout, I designed it while modelling as blocking out the areas to place display items while adjusting the camera view gave me more control with the scene composition.

A metallic chrome shader was made using a YouTube tutorial to create "80s Chrome" text. As the intent of the shader was not for large objects, I still had to make many changes for the effect to work on metallic parts of the can. I also recoloured the material for brass objects to create a glossy and clean appearance​.

After experimenting with various painterly shaders, I realised painting by hand using texture paint gives a more desired effect since I can control the brushstrokes better and only work on the camera view. I also painted over some images that looked too realistic such as the cardboard boxes.​ I also drew thes Argentinian austral on price tags to provide context of the hyperinflation and economic crisis in late 1980s​

Since this assignment did not require animation, I use the opportunity to draw the foliage on jacaranda trees on Photoshop and added the drawings as planes parallel to the camera view. To create more depth in the trees, I overlapped the images over one another.

For finishing touches, I added a glare node in compositing to recreate the blurry lights seen in vintage photos.​

Overall, I was glad I could execute most ideas I had in mind for this project within four weeks and was able to learn how to use the texture paint tool instead of relying on nodes. After completing this unit, I felt that with more time I could push the hand drawn style further with more textured painting.
