English Neo-Tradition: Historic Colors and Plain Weaves

An English new traditional living room. The framework consists of traditional elements of an English house: flat-panel wainscoting, simplified ceiling moldings, a simple stone-framed fireplace, and sash windows with grids. Walls and all woodwork are painted a desaturated historical green, with an eggshell finish. Furniture silhouettes are English—rolled-arm sofa and wingback chair—but all upholstery is replaced with plain coarse woven wool and linen, in colors of oatmeal and taupe, without prints or fringes. The floor is wide plank oak with a low-saturation antique rug. One wall features four equally spaced, plainly framed prints, not a dense gallery wall. Lighting consists of three simple table lamps and one wall sconce. Avoid: using floral prints and plaids, adding dense decorative objects and gallery walls, using intricate classical moldings, making the arrangement appear cluttered and piled up.

一間英式的新傳統起居室。骨架是英國住宅的傳統元素:平框護牆板、簡化的天花線腳、一座簡潔石框的壁爐、上下推拉的格子窗。牆面與所有木作漆成一種降過彩度的歷史綠,蛋殼光。家具的輪廓是英式的——捲臂沙發與翼背椅,但面料全部換成素面的粗織羊毛與亞麻,顏色是燕麥與灰褐,沒有印花與流蘇。地面是寬板橡木配一張低彩度的舊地毯。一面牆掛著四幅等距排列的素框版畫,不做密集的版畫牆。照明是三盞簡潔的桌燈與一盞壁燈。避免:使用花卉印花與格紋、加入密集的擺件與版畫牆、使用繁複的古典線腳、讓陳設顯得雜亂堆積。
