Bright colors in the interior of a Gregorian-style house
Combining bright colors in the interior of the house is a whole art. The owners of a traditional townhouse in the town of Henley-on-Thames, in the English county of Oxfordshire, solved this problem in an unusual way. The young family preferred the Gregorian style, the main feature of which is the presence of many elements painted in bright playful colors. And this concerns not the main range, which is made mainly in soothing colors, but the details.
This house is almost 200 years old, but it is still in very good shape. The owners decided to expand the somewhat cramped space by removing the walls between the corridor, the kitchen and the room. Such an expansion is simply necessary, because all the beauty of the Gregorian style can only be appreciated in a relatively open interior.
Every room, every room and every closet is filled with a wide variety of small interior elements that have different colors and shades. Any guest of this house, of course, will not be able to get bored, even if the owners are very busy: he will definitely find something to admire and study.
Nevertheless, it was important to preserve the classic, original features of the old house. Among them, particular importance was given to fireplaces, paneled doors and skirting boards, window shutters and stair balustrades. Moreover, if possible, the finishing materials, in particular, the floor and ceiling, were restored and preserved in their historical form.
The new owners expanded the space not only by tearing down the wall, but also by using built-in bookcases. Furniture deserves a separate discussion, as its bright colors form the basis of the contrast of shades throughout the house. The kitchen is distinguished by a striking combination of yellow, black and white, as well as stylish, bronzed brass chandeliers.
The most contrasting room, of course, was the second room. It stands out with scarlet walls, white ceiling and gray interior elements. A little more calmly decorated staircase, as well as the second floor and bathrooms, the design of which is based on a combination of white and various shades of black.
The old house, filled with bright colors of the Gregorian style, is a real work of art. Incredibly attractive contrasts, vintage interior elements and a pleasant overall range make such housing very comfortable for the owners to live in and interesting to visit as a guest.
