The Difference Between Baroque and Neoclassical: Columns Are Present Here

An interior that retains a complete classical vocabulary. Contemporary modern classicism only retains proportions: walls divided into three sections, tall and slender openings, moldings simplified to square profiles, columns abstracted into a groove. Here, it is complete: with real pilasters, featuring bases, fluted shafts, and recognizable capitals; with friezes, urn and palmette motifs, and stucco relief ceilings. The density of decoration is much higher. Avoid: simplifying columns into a groove without capitals, eliminating all motifs and retaining only proportions, using simplified moldings with square profiles, making walls into flat, plain surfaces.

一個保留完整古典語彙的室內。當代的現代古典只留下比例:牆分三段、開口高瘦、線腳簡化成方形斷面,柱被抽象成一道凹槽。這裡則是完整的:有真正的壁柱,帶柱礎、凹槽柱身與可辨認的柱頭;有浮雕飾帶、有甕形與棕葉的紋樣、有灰泥浮雕的天花。裝飾的密度高得多。避免:把柱簡化成一道無柱頭的凹槽、取消所有紋樣只留比例、使用方形斷面的簡化線腳、讓牆面變成平整的素面。
