I don't know why I'm so sure it's now, but I just am.

I agree...my first impression was now.

I'am going for the late 60s, the colors are true to that time, but it could be now?

i'm with Tammy. something about the placement of the stools. call me crazy. now.

the upholstery is done too well for it to be now. if you can afford to have those stools done you can afford a better sideboard and real flowers.
the fishscale leading, the pottery, the 2001 planters and that amazing/hideous mirror all say 1973-78 at the latest to me. the gold touches say 1967, but all that marimekko-like fabric and the palette are later. just ask yourself, what would macmillan and wife wear here?
also ask yourself, what is going on on that floor?

I guessed now. Not sure why, just a feeling.

my first instinct was now, so that is what I'm going with.

It reminds me of the 1950's.

I said now. The pitcher looks like the Ona pitcher from Crate & Barrel. The stools remind me of a pair of Camper shoes...how the pattern runs from one on to the next. Very now as well?

now. no doubt about it. The stools. That's what makes me so sure.

liquor bottle labels have me saying now...i was a bartender in a past life

I'm torn between now and the 80's. The carafe makes me think now, and I don't know liquor bottles well enough as hard as I try to read into them. Otherwise, the whole ensemble gives me an 80's vibe.

I'm also going with now because of the rug.

I had to go with Now. For me it's the walls and floors painted the same tinted white...all architecture is painted out so the focus is on the lovingly collected vintage items. That feels very present day.

Now, in a vintage style. The photography is also too neat, digital.

too matchy-matchy for anything but at "now"! glad we all agree :)

Has to be "now". Just has to be.

I guessed Now as well

I guessed 70s, since it's fugly. The photography and carafe do say "now", however.

I went with now ...

My initial thought was that it was "now" coz I saw the picture before the heading... and thought it was an ordinary AT article until I read the "guess the decade" heading. Then I thought it was 90s... coz the colours aren't very now... blue and yellow (it's a bit late 80s into 90s). The 60s items (ceramic vases and enamel dishes on the wall) look too well collected to make the room actually from the 60s, no? Then again, it could be a DIY 60s design project from a women's magazine - the stools look a bit DIY. The wall cabinet looks genuine 60s, especially the glass pattern... now I'm convincing myself - it's from the 60s. OK. Final guess. It's 90s... but every single item is a genuine 60s item. Just noticed that the plants are succulents... that's more current surely. The actual photograph colours (bright whites) have a very now feel too.

A few items are vintage and a few are purchased within the last couple of years. I guessed NOW.

it seems silly, and not at all logical, but it's the liquor that makes me think now, especially the 1800 tequila.

Now.

The bottle of 10 Cane Rum (a brand launched around 2005?) tipped me off.

It's so retro in a mix kind of way that I say today.

the springer stools are 70's, but weren't upholstered with asymetric patches back then.

most of the 60's pieces are the sort of unsubstantial things that are being past for retro-chic now, but probably would have been paired with older or personal things in a true sixties setting. those wall arrangements of coasters/ashtrays are too silly.....they would be coasters or ashtrays on flat surfaces, not a "collection". in a vintage home, the pricessa glasses would be in the kitchen, china closet, or wetbar not merchandised.

the rug seems current, and some of the liquor is new.

the arrangements and colors are too forced and vivid to be anything but now......though it looks so dated already.

now now.

I say the 90s because I sold that pitcher when I worked at Crate and Barrel in the 90s

Now. Such kitsch overload can only be ironic.

Now. Studiously vintage.

I'd say now, just because of the quality of the photo

My 2-second impression says "now".

Ummm... i actually like the mirror/want to know what its made from.

Its contrived decorative, impractical and kitsch I say now

The mix of materials and finishes makes me guess "Now".

I read all the comments, and think it MUST be now, but that cabinet with the iron is some kind of ugly. Eighties ugly.

Reveal it already!

Gut reaction says "Now," justified by all the reasons already stated.

The quality of the lighting and photography is too glossy and crisp--it has to be very recent. Overall, the whole setup is just too contrived and on-the-nose. It feels very much like someone's gathered together an assortment of found objects in an effort to create a glamorized vignette of fugly 70's design. It roughly simulates the overall look of a past period, but captures none of the true zeitgeist. It looks like something clipped from a recent issue of Domino magazine.

If this WERE vintage, I'd expect it to be some cruddy project from something like Better Homes & Gardens or Good Housekeeping, circa 1980. One of those magazines or project books that traded in inexpensive projects in an aesthetic that was just a few years out of date by the time of publication. No where else would you have found such a cheap and ugly wood bar cabinet featured so prominently as the anchor piece of so much other cheap ugliness trying very hard to be more glamorous.

But if it were ca. 1980, there'd have to be some rattan in there somewhere. And much bigger plants in the containers--like a whole goddamned ficus. And we'd be looking at a digital scan of a muddy, grainy, inexpensively printed old book or magazine and not a bright, high-resolution image.

Totally now
