Aztec is the new Antique: Home Design Inspiration

You might have noticed that antique home decors have been out of sight for some time now. Well, it’s not that old souls have lost touch of their inner sensitivity; their tastes have just shifted to a modern version – Aztec.

Aztec, a new style which is part-old school, part-modern, has first invaded the fashion scene. Now, it’s busy dominating modern house design. Here are the proofs:




A boring room can easily be transformed with colourful Aztec rugs. The geometric patterns will play smartly with most home design interior – modern, wooden, minimalist.

Pick a design with colors that’ll match the rest of the room’s furniture and décor.


Painting an Aztec flair in the bedroom is quite easy. Just get a bed sheet with a fun Aztec pattern and you’re good to go.



There are lots of custom designs available, ranging from black and white to neon colors. Pick one which reflects your personality.



These Aztec throw pillows are easy design elements for your home. They would be perfect for sofa in the living room or on the swing on the patio.


The Aztec style is not limited to tribal patterns, arrows can represent this style too. To support your theme, you can choose from arrow wall decors and accessories. Frame a hand drawn picture of different arrows and hang it on a wall.



Another DIY would be painting arrow icons with fun phrases on a cut piece of wood. You can customize your own design and pin it to the wall.



Another technique is by painting arrows on your walls. If you’re not the DIY type, then you could just purchase arrow wall decals for convenience.




A fancy design element is this pair of deer skull with painted Aztec patterns. It’s classic, yet modern at the same time – refreshing.



And sometimes, it all depends on the small details. Like these Aztec stencils.



And these rocks painted with Aztec patterns.




And… this Aztec pumpkin trying to dominate Halloween.
