Perhaps you live in a medieval castle and want to furnish it authentically. Or maybe you just love the dark, delicate stylings of used and vintage Gothic furniture and decor. Either way, exactingly carved spires, quality woods and the occasional gargoyle can be yours when you shop Gothic and English Traditional styles. A Gothic style chair can add monastic elegance, and an iron, vintage Gothic style chandelier will add serious polish to your dining room. A little darkness can be the easiest way to play up the light in any room.

3 UNIQUE TAKES ON GOTHIC STYLE

If Gothic style conjures up vampires and amulets for you, think again. While it is true that Gothic design has gotten a bad rap over the years, when removed from any kitschy context, gothic design can feel romantic, mood-setting, and—in its best forms—otherworldly.

Gothic design first emerged around 1150 AD, during the medieval period. Gothic design was originally conceived as an architectural movement, and consisted mainly of dramatic, peaked arches and buttressed forms. Gothicism eventually evolved into the Renaissance movement, which shared many of the ornate qualities of Gothic architecture, but favored more linear shapes.

Beginning in the 18th Century, Gothic style began to reemerge, this time predominantly as an interior design movement. Known as the Gothic Revival, the trend focused more on luxurious textiles than opulent millwork.

A mainstay style since that time, the Gothic style has been reinterpreted in a myriad of ways. Below, we outline three ways to interpret Gothic interiors. Whether you’re angling for a traditional take on Gothicism, or something a little more goth n’ roll, read on to find your signature look.

GOTHIC REVIVAL

The original Gothic Revival began in the 1740s. When you consider the elaborateness of the Victorian style, reviving Gothicism simultaneously was a no-brainer. Both styles favored elaborate woodwork, dark, phantom-y tones, and stained glass. To decorate your space in the Gothic Revival style, first look for places to interject dark woods, be it exposed ceiling beams, grand staircases, or Gothic furniture. If you’re not sure you want to go all out with lavishly carved Gothic furniture, consider seeking out old church furniture to repurpose—altar chairs, pews, trestle tables, and candle chandeliers are all game. These storied pieces will evoke Gothic stylings without calling undo attention to themselves. Gothic cabinets are also a low commitment way to try out Gothic furniture. Just look for Gothic cabinets with subtle wood carving and glass cabinet fronts. You might also consider furniture that’s not Gothic furniture per say, but showcases Gothic features like finials and heraldic and tromp d’oeil carvings.

When it comes to complementing your Gothic furniture, consider wallpaper and carpeting in dark jewel tones—use colors pulled straight from stained glass panels for inspo. Wallpaper and faux-painted were both popular during the 18th and 19th centuries, so consider doing up the walls in more than just flat paint if you feel so inclined. Textural touches should include silk, satins, and velvets—use them in the form of drapes, pillows, and table linens. And as a final touch, line the walls is Gothic light fixtures like sconces made of wrought iron.
