Owning a character-laden Victorian home sounds dreamy until you move in and discover that the ancient antiquity runs throughout the home — including the wiring, roofing and windows. Victorian style rooms are very orderly and have a lot of embellishment. Surfaces are brimming with items that showcase the owner’s taste and personality. Furniture styles can be taken from various time periods in history. Gothic, Tudor, Elizabethan, and English Rococo are all popular furniture styles used in Victorian living rooms (skirting board style names follow these time periods too). Even tough remodeling a Victorian home is costly and time consuming, meshing modern design with a Victorian flair can be done — in any home. Some may call this look eclectic, but we prefer to call this mixture, Modern Victorian. Really it only makes sense that this style has evolved into being. Creating a modern Victorian interior can be achieved by carefully meshing the two styles together. Get inspired by the following 18 Modern Victorian Living Room Ideas.
