Looks like Queen Anne style to me. The back is called a vasiform splat. ie. it looks like a vase. HTH

Have you looked at the sites for temple and Webster, and Brosa furniture? Both have good ranges and sales. If you want to extend your budget have a look at Great Dane furniture. And if you want a true classic have a look at Thonet, their versions in a light wood option would give you the look you're after.

Hi Zoe, what a lovely space, great neutral floor and curtains, your lounge and dining set perfect, I think you do know what you like just look at the photos you have posted, the only thing missing in your space are the personal bits and pieces. Take all of the above photos with you to Kmart and use them as a reference to purchase, good thing is you can change them if you feel it doesn't work. Your room really needs lights/ lamps, are you able to fit a hanging lamp above the table, what type of ceiling lights does the apartment have The other big thing is the entertainment wall needs bulking up, you need something taller and wider this can be made up with a couple TV height(Taller) cabinets on either side of the current TV, the speaker system needs a home and arranging, Kmart is bound to have something, or check out Salvo's etc they often have those old Pine timber entertainment units that old TV's sat into. With a light sand, white wash and a sealing coat they come up a treat Love your rug but it's a bit small, in the meantime I think I would line up against the lounge so it's not lost. Good advice Nelson Interiors, love Kmart and Bunnings to help with stretching the budget, Zoe don't over look Buniings for furnishing your room, work benches etc also make great TV stands and side boards, they also have a large lighting section cheers

Thanks Big Reader. I am not sure what the look would be called, maybe modern with a touch of traditional. The house is definitely mid century modern. I tend to like uncluttered simple rooms. Thinking this through, I am really trying to keep the furniture but update the room somewhat. I am no youngster but I can't stand walking into a room that looks & feels old if you know what I mean.
