It is not unusual to find different decorating styles in different rooms. Most people who do have this, usually “divide” the spaces somehow! I have seen knee walls, pocket doors, headers with pillars, many ways to divide the spaces, without actually closing each space off. A boundry of some kind that is subtle, is always nice.
You can mix periods but you shouldn’t get too far off from the wood color. Or, you could use some sort of screen or room divider to visually block off the rooms from each other. Just remember to not go to far adrift otherwise you will simply shock yourself and anyone else everytime you go from room to room. In other words, try not to buy a ’50′s or ’60′s style with the Victorian. Formica and metal, NO.
It is your house. whatever works for you will be just fine. Today,many,many styles are out there and matching furniture is not exactly the norm.there are many pieces out there that will match,and serve as modern as well.
