Traditional Victorian style is almost a contradiction. Rooms are full without being crowded, walls and carpets are patterned without being dizzying, and the colors are rich yet bright. Custom home finishes that blend key Victorian elements with modern style will bring an elegance to your bedroom. Here are a few tips for balancing modern and Victorian styles in your bedroom redesign. 

What Are the Elements of a Victorian Dream Room 

1. Gold Accents 

Add as many or as few gold accessories as you want to achieve the right amount of Victorian and modern. For a balanced custom home finish, paint drawer handles and table legs gold or hang gold mirrors and framed paintings. However, don’t forget soft items; fill your bed with various shades of gold pillows, or drape a gold velvet blanket over the back of an armchair. 

2. Oversized Furniture 

Victorian style is dramatic and luxurious, so create a focal point with a four-poster bed or an ornate headboard. Stick to medium-to-dark woods or rich jewel tones for a warm ambiance. Velvet pillows and an oversized lounge chair will add comfort, while wooden bureaus with iron knobs will complete your blended look.  

3. Pattern & Texture 

If you’re not a fan of gold or lots of color, enhance the room with neutral textures. Choose a white-textured wallpaper or tufted bed comforter. Keep all of your neutral furnishings the same color, but experiment with different shades and hues. Feature a few pops of color with patterned curtains or throw rugs to enhance the neutral tone.
