Ask any interior designer for the key to getting the most for your money when it comes to furniture, and you’ll likely hear this: Choose high-quality pieces in classic silhouettes. By building the foundation of your furniture collection around pieces that can stand the test of time, both when it comes to style and wear-and-tear, you’ll be able to use the same items over and over again in your home, refreshing your rooms when needed by updating accents and decor.

For proof on just how versatile one piece can be, we’ve styled a classic, Louis-style Maison Jansen settee that recently arrived at The Local Vault in three different ways.

Feminine and glamorous.
Picture these beautiful pieces in a bright, airy sunroom overlooking the garden, or as the start of a chic, girly office space. Tones of blush pink complement the grassy green shade of the sofa, while quatrefoil prints update the look and give it a preppy feel.

A bit Art Deco. 
For an unexpected juxtaposition, we’ve paired the traditional settee with Art Deco-style accents to up its cool factor. The look works because all of the pieces share a neutral color scheme, and the clean lines of the chest of drawers, chandelier, and rug balance the curvier form of the settee.

Country cottage style.
We give you: the quintessential country home. Hand-painted side tables and a vintage-style floral rug add a down-to-earth quality to the space, while a beaded (but not ornate) chandelier keeps the scheme sophisticated.
