These six luxury neoclassical style interiors lavishly exude elegance from extravagant ceiling roses and stunning boiserie. The decorative design elements form a layered backdrop that sets an upmarket scene for gloriously decorative furniture pieces, huge eye-catching chandeliers, and high-end materials palettes of marble, natural woods, plus rich gold and brass accents. As we tour through this set of fabulous boiserie-kissed homes, we’ll also discover inspiration for impressive high-ceilinged living rooms, unique kitchens, grand dining rooms, enviable bedroom designs, and chic bathroom concepts. The pendulum swings between spaces steeped in classical contours and homes freshened with more contemporary ideas, meeting desires for all tastes and inclinations.
In our first featured home tour, we arrive at a luxurious living room setting with grand double doors that are topped with deeply decorative moulding. Traditional wainscotting trims the perimeter of the room, along with fabulously ornate crown moulding. In the centre of the space, the style pendulum swings into the more contemporary realm of modern furniture and a fashionable live-edge rustic coffee table.
