Space & Budget Guidance
Small Space Tips
Small spaces suit grandmillennial's collected nature. A few chintz pillows, botanical prints, and one wicker piece create the style without overcrowding. For a small boardroom: Small boardrooms (6-8 seats) suit smaller organizations or secondary boardrooms. Maintain quality and presence despite smaller scale.
Large Space Tips
Large grandmillennial spaces embrace multiple pattern mixing, collected furniture groupings, and abundant accessories. Create intimate conversation areas within larger rooms. In a larger boardroom: Large boardrooms (18+ seats) handle full board meetings, shareholder events, and major presentations. Impressive presence with full technology and hospitality.

Luxury Approach
Source museum-quality antiques, commission custom chintz upholstery, collect fine porcelain, and work with designers who appreciate the grandmillennial aesthetic.
