Can oak chests of drawers fit into a modern décor, or are they more traditional?

I think an oak chest of drawers can definitely fit into a modern décor. You might worry that oak furniture looks traditional, but a lot of it is down to the design and finish of the piece. Just look at the oak chest of drawers on this website.

Oak’s natural warmth can add a touch of coziness to a room, which is something modern spaces often need. To make an oak chest of drawers fit in, consider pairing it with other modern elements, like sleek metal accents or geometric décor. This creates a balanced look that combines the old with the new. Another option is to go for a painted finish — white or black often pair well with a more minimalist modern décor.

Also, not all oak furniture is bulky or ornate. Some pieces have simple, clean lines that suit modern styles perfectly. If the chest has a timeless look, it can complement modern décor without feeling out of place. It’s all about mixing textures, like combining the rich grain of oak with clean, smooth surfaces.
