Tudor: Hall interior

A high-ceilinged great hall. Exposed oak roof trusses crisscross overhead; at one end is a carved wooden screen and passage, at the other a massive stone fireplace. The walls are linenfold paneling up to the wainscot, with tapestries hanging above. A long table and high-backed chairs are arranged longitudinally in the space. Light streams in diagonally from high windows. Avoid: adding a ceiling to cover the trusses, using bright uniform lighting, placing modern furniture in the center, painting the walls plain white.

一個挑高的大廳。露明的橡木屋架在頭頂交錯,一端是雕花的木屏風與通道,另一端是巨大的石砌壁爐;牆面是亞麻褶鑲板到腰部,上方掛著織錦。長桌與高背椅沿著空間縱向擺放。光從高窗斜射進來。避免:加設天花遮住屋架、使用明亮均勻的照明、在中央放置現代家具、把牆面刷成素白。
