Gothic

Gothic interior style is dramatic, historic, and emotionally intense. Rooted in medieval architecture, it draws inspiration from cathedrals, castles, and monasteries, translating their atmosphere into interiors. Key elements include pointed arches, heavy wood furniture, carved details, and a strong vertical emphasis. The palette is dark and rich—deep burgundy, charcoal, forest green, midnight blue—often contrasted with stone tones or muted metallic accents. Lighting is intentionally moody: candle-like fixtures, wrought iron chandeliers, and soft pools of light that create shadows rather than eliminate them. Textiles are heavy and tactile, such as velvet, brocade, leather, and tapestries. In contemporary interpretations, Gothic is often softened by cleaner layouts and selective use of elements, avoiding visual overload. Gothic spaces are not about brightness or minimalism; they are about atmosphere, storytelling, and a sense of timeless gravity.
