1970s USA – Forgotten Home Décor of the 70s

Join me for a trip back in time to remember how we lived back in the 1970s!

By the 1970s, suburban expansion had subdivisions moved further out onto former farmland and natural areas, far from the downtown cores. These neighborhoods were no longer bound by the street grid of the city, and new subdivisions were drawn up with curving streets, large lots, as well as bigger and more unique home designs.

The expansion into larger and more natural spaces, coincided perfectly with the overall trends in American society.

The 1970s saw a shift towards more organic, comfortable, and personalized interior spaces. This reflected the changing cultural landscape from the forward-looking attitude of the 1960s to a more reflective and individualistic approach in the 1970s.

Homes in the 1970s were designed to be sanctuaries of comfort, offering a retreat from the outside world. This desire for comfort was manifested in plush furnishings, warm colors, and personalized decor.

Join me as we explore some of the 1970s trends when it came to homes and decorating!
