WandaVision Inspired Retro Decor
If you’ve grown up watching sitcoms, there’s a good chance that you’ve caught yourself wishing you lived on the set of your favorite show. Marvel’s WandaVision makes that wish come true… Well, almost.
One of the best parts of the show is its audience. Besides Avengers’ fans, you’ll also find home decor enthusiasts glued to it – because every episode presents an array of retro decor ideas.
Retro decor is easy to love, but not nearly as easy to implement. It has to be nostalgic, but not dated; inspired by the past but still rooted in the present. And, of course, it’s got to be cool! Kudos to the set designers at WandaVision. They made these conflicting objectives look so easy to achieve.
The series makes for a delightful journey through the decades, each time period lending a unique flavor to the decor of Wanda and Vision’s home. Beginning with black-and-white settings reminiscent of ‘I Love Lucy’, then exploring the well-loved styles of the ‘70s and onwards, the show reminds us every episode of the fast-changing decor trends with each decade. It truly is an incredible time capsule.
Here are some fun retro style home decor ideas to get that WandaVision look in your own home.
