A classical British-style home interior

We didn’t really pay much attention to it until now, but the British style is full of elegant surprises. In a typical British home everything is perfectly organized and nothing exists unless it has a purpose. Also, its interior décor is surprisingly vibrant and dynamic. Even though it has a series of characteristic features, this style is in fact an eclectic composition.

These are typical British-style homes. One of them is a beautiful flat located in North London and it seems to feature all the characteristics of this style. The overall impression is that there’s a perpetual mix of old and new. Even a contemporary British home will have some vintage accents. That’s because tradition is very important. This flat combines modernist pieces with antique Chesterfields and the result is a balanced mix and a chic décor.

In general, British-style interior are not one-note. For example, if you have a wingback chair you could place it next to a modern wire end table or a mid-century modern chair.

This way there will always be contrast. Another characteristic of this style includes high ceilings and tall windows along with carved mantels. They can be either modern or vintage and this makes them beautiful regardless of the period. As for the decorations, you will usually notice that British homes have large painting and artwork that have a rather dramatic effect without being too invasive.{pictures from site}.
