Modern Gothic, Formal Lounge

My brief for this project, was to create a neo-gothic styled interior.

The words “neo-gothic” may not be what you think. Instead, think of European cathedrals, intricate detail, darker colour schemes and unique architectural elements.

If you know me at all, you’ll know that “gothic” style isn’t my cup of tea. However, as I researched, I began to feel inspired/challenged to create a modern space that incorporates some traditional “gothic” elements. So, I decided to design a formal lounge area with this brief in mind.

Mood Board:

A collage of nine images including a foggy forest, a candle, daisies, a dark table with figs, vintage books, a beige fabric, a beach with a picnic table, macarons, and glasses of wine. The words "Cozy," "Moody," "Modern," and "Unique" are written in bold black font across the collage.
