English style is a mixture of refined elegance and luxury, quality, moderation of forms, restraint and attention to every little thing. This is considered to be the attributes of aristocracy. English interiors evoke a sense of livability and tranquility. It is suitable for people who value comfort and tranquility in the house. People who choose this style respect old traditions and values.
The origins of the Anglo style
The traditional style of the United Kingdom is the result of a mixture of Georgian style, which mixed elements of Rococo and Classicism, and Victorian, which combined classical features with exotic and Gothic. As a legacy from the Georgian era, the interior of the English house received precise proportions, harmony and a sense of proportion.
The Victorian era brought luxury and vibrant colors. Such a mixture creates, albeit austere, but very cozy interior.
Living rooms in England cannot be imagined without 3 components: a fireplace, a heavy chair, and a bookcase.
The fireplace is an indispensable item in English houses, although it has lost its main function of heating the room. Modern heating devices cannot replace the flashes of fire and the soft light of the flame that spills over the room. Traditionally, the fireplace is made high (from the middle of the wall and above), decorated with marble tiles, granite and wood inserts.
An electric fireplace is a trendy alternative to traditional fireplaces. It does not have the flaws that ordinary wood-burning samples have: the accumulation of soot, soot, periodic smoke, the need for logging and ash removal, and a high fire hazard. Electric appliances, even in city apartments, manage to create the impression of living fire thanks to 3D effects.
A massive armchair is a must-have attribute in the living room. This item has a high back with protrusions at the top, for which the British nicknamed it "grandfather's chair" or "armchair with wings." In Russia, it is usually called a fireplace, eared or Voltaire's. In Great Britain, this item was used for elderly people, and special “ears” on the back reliably protected from the wind from the window cracks. It seems to collect heat and envelop the seated person with it, at the same time protecting from drafts and sparks. The perfect place to relax by the hearth!
A bookcase was in every home in Great Britain, since the choice of entertainment in the past centuries was small, and books took up their free time and entertained. The rack should fit over the entire wall space (from ceiling to floor) and be with non-glazed (open) shelves. Shelves should be full of books: a real library!
Important styling elements
Do not think that this style is possible only for houses with spacious rooms. Typical apartments in Britain in the 19th century had an area similar to the "Khrushchevs", since it was difficult to heat a large room with a fireplace, and the climate in foggy Albion was not hot. Therefore, you can create decor in the spirit of the best traditions of Britain in an ordinary apartment, the main thing is to take into account the specifics of this design direction.
The tree is to be!
In British dwellings, there is never enough wood, moreover, exquisite species (walnut, beech, mahogany, stained oak). The parquet is made of oak, the walls are with wood paneling, the cornices and skirting boards are also made of this material. Large doors are the finishing touch.
Luxury furnishings
Furniture, which is used to decorate houses in the English style, is made of expensive types of wood. There is a lot of furniture, it seems that the room is overcrowded. If it is a dining room, then the center is occupied by a round / oval dining table and chairs. It is customary to place the sofa and armchairs in the center, and not under the wall, as in a modern interior.
Upholstered furniture is especially loved. There is also a lot of it: these are sun beds, and the aforementioned wing chair, a Chesterfield sofa, poufs. Loungers and poufs are upholstered in good-quality leather, textiles with a strict cage or romantic patterns.
Chesterfield is a sofa that has not changed its appearance for over two centuries. The main features of Chester are the diamond-shaped stitch, the armrests and the back, making up a single element. The arms of the armrests can resemble a rolled-up scroll, the legs are small or completely invisible.
"Invisible" walls
Walls can be covered with plain wallpaper, vertical stripes are allowed. The use of wooden panels is characteristic, of which there can be many. However, they should be practically invisible - they are just a background that favorably emphasizes canvases in gilded baguettes or weighty mirrors.
The framing of paintings should obey the "reverse" logic: the more intricate the plot, the more ingenious the frame. "Lush" baguettes will complement the modest drawing.
It's all about the details
And they should be in large numbers. All kinds of vases, souvenirs, ceramic figurines, family photos, plaid blankets or knitted bedspreads, pillows from large to small, family relics, because loyalty to traditions, especially family ones, is important for interior design in the English style. But you need to remember that all accessories must look good and have a certain order. Antiques are welcome: they will turn your home into an old family nest.
Fabric gizmos are presented in abundance. The curtains are certainly chic, consisting of curtains, thin veils and frills. Laces with tassels, large drapery will additionally decorate the curtains.
Pillows are placed on upholstered furniture, as well as window sills. On the tables there are beautiful tablecloths, the beds are covered with canopies.
The interior decoration of the apartments in England excludes bright light. It is better to replace powerful light sources with sconces, floor lamps and table lamps with diffused light.
Modern technology, in order not to destroy the overall style solution, should be hidden in special cabinets or niches. Smart placement of electronics creates the impression of a stop in time: from the noisy 21st century, you seem to be transported to the calm 19th.
Kitchen design
The floors of the kitchen, as well as in other parts of the house, are covered with parquet boards. A practical option is provided - ceramic tiles in the color of natural stone or tiles in a "checkered" pattern, the photo of which is below.
The walls are painted with a monochromatic matte paint in pastel shades. You can stick paper wallpaper or similar to fabric. Some of the wallpaper can be checked or striped. The kitchen apron is faced with light brick-shaped tiles.
The set is made of wood, sometimes decorated with carvings. The table is round, around it are chairs with textile or leather upholstery. The benches will also fit well into the decoration of the kitchen.
Household appliances are only built-in, models in retro style look great. The plumbing is also stylized: the sink is made of ceramic, and the mixer is made of brass or other metal.
Textiles in the dining area are represented by tablecloths, potholders, napkins. The color and pattern of fabrics should overlap with the overall shade of the space.
Accessories are dishes with floral patterns, images of dogs and horses, which are so loved in the British Isles. The shelves are lined with cookbooks, food jars, herbariums, clocks, picturesque miniatures. Bouquets of fresh flowers are on the tables.
British kitchen design is combined with Russian décor elements. The tiled stove, samovar, gzhel will reveal new facets of moderate design.
Bedroom decor
The decoration of bedrooms necessarily includes floral prints and floral motifs. Floral prints are present in the design of furniture, walls and of course textiles. Floral elements are mixed in decor items: such a floral mix is characteristic of the English style.
The Scottish cage is actively used in the decoration of the bedroom. It is also combined with floral motifs, with a stripe, a regular check, and a houndstooth pattern.
The decoration of the walls of the bedroom provides for colorful draperies made of fabric or wood panels.
Victorian chic will fully convey the bed. You should choose a high one, with a large back and a canopy at the head.
But the room shouldn't be empty. Chairs, tables, couches, pedestals - let it all take up free space. The walls should be occupied with shelves with books, lamps, drawings. The English interiors, the photo of which is below, is an example of this kind of furniture.
Bathroom decoration
Tradition requires a combination of natural panels and painted or wallpapered areas. Tile is not entirely appropriate, but if the choice fell on it, then it is better to choose a pattern that imitates classic wallpaper.
The stiffness of the British dictates decorators to make the floors in the bathroom from natural wood. Alternatively, laminate flooring has worked well. Another idea is a black and white "checkerboard" of small tiles on the floor.
The plumbing is very aristocratic. The bathtub must certainly stand on large curved legs. Copper or bronze-colored fittings complement the washbasin, toilet and bidet.
The furniture is made of wood. But, given the humidity of the bathroom, you can replace the material with plastic with a printed pattern.
Decorative little things are placed in this place as well. Large mirror frames, gold-colored towel hooks and hangers, prints, and flower pots are all great ways to decorate a room.
Perhaps some will find the English style in decor old-fashioned, but connoisseurs of the classics will love it. Stylish and discreet, it will create home comfort in your apartments.
Perhaps the main determinants of the English style are restraint, respectability and aristocracy. It is by no means historical, which is inscribed in some dated framework. Rather, it is ethnics, expressing the ordinariness and traditions of the English aristocratic strata.
The interior of this style is discreet, practical, with notes of English settlements, classically symmetrical and harmonious in colors.
A bit of history
In the design of English interiors, the stylistics of baroque, gothic, classics and realism are used, which are united by characteristic features in true English traditions. The most famous styles in England are Victorian and Georgian, which come from the reigns of Queen Victoria and King George (late 17th century - early 18th century).
This period saw the heyday and development of the country. The style is dominated by an abundance of luxurious furnishings and finishes, exquisite decor items and items adorned with precious and rare materials. For example, ivory or mahogany.
Particularly noteworthy is the interior of that time in that there was a colonial gloss in everything, expressed by various decorative and household items imported from other countries: India, America, Africa or Australia. In the setting, they successfully take their places without disturbing the harmony of the interior as a whole. Traditionally, they were protected and tried to pass on to their descendants in a perfectly preserved form.
But the main difference that characterizes the interior design in the English style is the presence of a large number of antique pieces of furniture, decorative elements, and tableware.
When decorating an interior in the spirit of old England, professionals advise using decoration, furniture, accessories, textiles, lighting fixtures inherent only in this style.
Do not use mobile and multifunctional accessories and devices. The design of the interior solution should be refined and solid, protocol restrained and solid in quality.
Using style
Collector. This interior loves to surround itself with various decorative things in the form of antiques, original expensive dishes, figurines made of precious metals and stones. For this, even special places are allocated on the shelf of the fireplace or open cabinet with shelves, so that the collections can be admired.
A lover of reading books in beautiful bindings or manuscripts. Usually, in the English style, a comfortable soft chair is set aside for reading books near an antique fireplace with smoldering logs. In addition, the house just needs to have at least a small library, which, in addition to its direct purpose, can be used as a study or a resting place.
A large cabinet made of solid natural wood is allocated for books; there must certainly be a staircase of a certain size, used for its intended purpose or as an attribute. A large heavy table, comfortable armchairs and a floor lamp with a beautiful shade are also necessary components of the interior.
A connoisseur of exquisite natural wood furniture upholstered in luxurious textiles. The furnishings of this style are the queen of the interior. All items should be matched to each other, because it will serve for a long time.
The owner of a small apartment. In this case, the English style would be a win-win. So he is inherent in some tightness in the situation. Because the apartments in English houses are of a small area, so that in cold weather it would be easier to heat them, since the climatic conditions do not spoil the British with warmth. Therefore, interiors are created with subdued soft lighting, cozy and warm.
Supporter of everything classic. English room design is considered the perfect classic due to its symmetry, harmony and proportion. All items are arranged in their places, everything is clear and no-nonsense.
Style basics
Before you start decorating a room, you should think over the details and take into account the following principles:
- zoning should be specifically designated;
- it is obligatory to use stained-glass windows for window openings and other glass inserts;
- natural materials are used as decoration: wood, stone, etc.;
- there must be a fireplace in tandem with a shelf in the living room, bedroom or library; for lighting, it is better to use sconces, floor lamps or lamps with dim light;
- for textile decoration, it is worth using natural fabric materials, plain, striped, plaid, with a small image of any vegetation;
- used as decor: figurines, porcelain figurines, mirrors, photographs, flowerpots, etc.
To choose any design option, you should use the viewing of catalogs with photos of the English style in the interior.
Features of the layout
The most significant property of the layout is symmetry in everything: in the arrangement of interior items, rooms, and even windows and doors.
In the houses of the British, as a rule, rooms of a small area, but the number of floors can be two or more. A chic staircase inside the house will become not only a stylish decoration, but also a detail dividing the space of the room.
Features of the color scheme
Basically, combinations of the following tones are inherent in the English interior:
- brown, terracotta, dark green interspersed with gold;
- sand, chocolate, beige or dark brown;
In general, finishing in a dark muted color scheme is considered a typical feature of the design of rooms. If the windows of the room face south, then the finishing is done in cold colors (green, blue, blue, gray, etc.), if the windows face north, then in warm colors (chocolate, ocher, sand, etc.).
Interiors in light colors are rarely made out, but this does not contradict the style. The surface color is predominantly white, beige or light gray.
Furniture upholstery should correspond to the style of the walls (in terms of color and applied image). Wood elements can be both light and dark, the main thing is not to upset the balance.
Wall decoration
All materials used in the decoration must be natural. This applies to plaster, wallpaper, paint, or wood surfaces. In addition, you can use several methods to decorate a room in an English manner:
- The lower part of the wall is finished with wood panels, and the top is covered with light-colored paint and matte texture.
- Divide the wall with moldings and paint in one color. Thus, the molding divides it into two parts.
- To increase the height of the ceiling, vertical striped wallpaper is suitable. If the height allows, you can paste over the wall with beautiful wallpaper with the image of monograms or with an ornament.
Ceiling decoration
The most common option is to whitewash or paint the ceiling white.
A stucco cornice around the entire perimeter, matching the color of the ceiling or covered with gilding, will help to create a complete look.
Floor decoration
Parquet, boards or stone tiles are often used as flooring. It is possible to use artificial materials with imitation of natural ones.
In the cozy living room, you can lay laminate or parquet flooring, stone tiles in the kitchen or bathroom. In addition, a handmade carpet will be appropriate in the living room or bedroom.
Photo of the English style in the interior
The house is usually built of red bricks. Moreover, no external wall decoration is provided. This is a fairly durable and beautiful material. And the houses from it in the conditions of the island and mild climate have stood for centuries. This is why the ground floor is built at ground level. The foundations are not high here. And you will not see any porch or terrace at the front door.
And now we go inside ... Just a picture from a magazine! The owners wanted to add both rustic and modern elements to the design.
How do you like?
Very nice atmosphere in the kitchen. The classic look is successfully combined with modern equipment.
In the village, the houses are a little simpler than in the city. Here you can often see dwellings made of stone. An old British country house is usually smaller in size than a town house. And the second floor is often attic. But in the village you can see the roofs made of reed and grass. They look very original and beautiful. Now we go out onto the terrace and admire again.
In ancient times, a roof covered with reeds or grasses spoke of the owner's poverty. But times are changing and today few wealthy homeowners can afford such a roof. Now, the presence of a thatched roof speaks of the wealth of the owner of the house. Incredibly cozy courtyard! Ideal for breakfast.
Usually on the ground floor there is a living room, a kitchen and an office, if any. The bedroom, bathroom and other rooms are located on the next floors. The kitchen used to be small. Today they are trying to make it bigger so that the whole family can fit at the dinner table.
The living room often has a fireplace, which is found in almost every British home. Opposite the fireplace, by tradition, an armchair or sofa is placed. Near it, a tea table, which is covered with a tablecloth, will also be appropriate. In the office, they usually put a table and an armchair, and shelves for books or a wardrobe for the same purpose.
The bedrooms have the usual set of furniture - a bed, a wardrobe and a chest of drawers. In general, in the home of the British there is a minimal set of furniture. There is never anything superfluous in them. Only the most necessary things and items.
Another traditional design element, albeit an outdoor one, is the arrangement of the lawn and flower beds. The lawn is the pride of the owner of the house. It has been cultivated and ennobled for years. But numerous flower beds and flower beds are located both in front of the house and behind it. And this is another English tradition.
Dreams of a solid, comfortable and beautiful home may someday come true. It all depends on how these dreams will be combined with physical and mental efforts.
And if you have such (or somewhat different) house (or apartment), you need to be fully armed and equip your home, finally, as you would like. And in order to know what you want, it is better to familiarize yourself with the interior that others have. In this article I propose to look at the interiors in the English style. The photo below shows a classic living room with a carpet, sofa and armchairs "with ears". A low table in front of the sofa with a top covered with natural leather is a visiting card of the English house. The combination of furniture with thin legs (sofa and armchairs) with more massive and voluminous in one room is also a distinctive feature of the British.
The same "eared" armchairs, but in colorful upholstery, books on the shelves, a twisted forged chandelier, lighting in the form of small floor lamps with fabric shades and, finally, a palm tree by the window - all this is a classic English interior.
The usual comfortable old chair next to the bed, where you can sit before going to bed and look through a book or watch TV. Everything is simple, but looking at this interior, you understand that everything is fine in this house with coziness and arrangement!
In an English house, there are usually large windows decorated with floor-length curtains. This gives the rooms a special elegance.
Small spaces with low ceilings, natural wood paneling, olive-green walls and soft electric and natural lighting create the atmosphere of an English home.
Wooden panels on the walls are preferably made from durable types of wood, which are treated in a special way to prevent mold and bugs.
Semicircular windows, dark olive walls, a large fireplace, massive upholstered furniture and palm trees, as witnesses of the past colonial conquests of the British. Much in the interior, like outlandish plants, appeared in the homes of the British thanks to fearless seafarers who brought all this from their long sea voyages.
Placing upholstered furniture with different upholstery in one room for some reason does not cause a feeling of disunity in the interior, but quite the opposite. There is something elusive and unifying in this setting.
A fireplace or stove that needs to be heated with wood will warm its owners in any frost. And how great it is to come after a slushy and cold street, light the fireplace and sit next to listen to the firewood crackling and feel the warmth go through the room.
Evenings by a lighted fireplace in a narrow circle of the family, what could be better?
Winter evenings will not seem tiresomely long, in such a small room next to your loved ones it is warm and you don't want to go anywhere.
And around the fireplace you can place all the lovely portraits and small paintings.
The chimney is like a home decoration.
The bedroom in an English house is a well-appointed room. The bed is the main piece of furniture, always beautiful and fundamental.
Not only the furniture in the English house is solid, but also other interior items. The British do not fill their home with cheap trinkets, and if they bring a thing into the house, then forever.
The secret of the quality and quality of English furniture lies in the use of natural materials for its manufacture and the skill of furniture makers.
Such a metal bed with a wrought-iron head looks elegant and light. The bright room is filled with sun and fresh air.
Such a bed is covered with a bedspread with ruffles; pillowcases on the pillows and curtains on the windows should be in tune with it.
All English furniture is reliable and of high quality, serving for several generations.
And this girl's bedroom is in soft blue with lots of colored pillows.
Here is the bedroom for the adult family members. Every centimeter of space is used here. But everything is in its place, everything is pleasing to the eye.
Once the canopy over the bed was a testament to the greatness of its owner. Now this addition to the interior of the bedroom is being arranged over their beds by romantic people.
Order in the house - order and in thoughts, success in work, calm and measured life.
They carefully equip not only the bedroom, but also the kitchen. This is a special place in the house where food is prepared, it is always cozy here, it smells delicious, an abundance of sunlight and flowers.
Everything is at hand here, everything is familiar and familiar. And it has always been so, because the conservative British honor their traditions and keep the connection between generations. Wonderful handmade furniture is passed on from grandmother to granddaughter.
English cuisine can be in light colors with obligatory covers on chairs, with fabric curtains on glass cabinet doors, with lace curtains on the windows.
There is always a lot of dishes in English cuisine. English porcelain is renowned for its quality, both antique and modern.
Dishes in England have always been made not only porcelain, earthenware, but also ceramic and metal.
How nice it is to celebrate holidays, for example, New Year and Christmas, in such a safe and beautiful house. Fresh pine or Christmas tree branches, lighted candles, waiting for a miracle.
And here is the tree, in the evening she will gather the whole family in this small living room.
Such New Year's evenings with family will be remembered forever and live in our childhood memories as the best.
To make your fairy-tale house not only cozy and comfortable inside, but also pleasing to the eye outside, it should be surrounded by green spaces.
There will never be too many trees, flowers, climbing plants if they are well cared for. Of course, such a house is more like the abode of gnomes from English fairy tales, but the flowers are real.
Without wonderful plants around this house it would be empty and lonely.
And this, albeit small, but such a sweet home, also looks soundly.
I would like to live in such an old brick house, decorated with a curling trellis rose.
And in front of the house or on the open terrace, put such a swing sofa with a lace cape.
It is easy to breathe on such a sunny terrace among the abundance of plants.
A sofa can be placed not only on the veranda or terrace, but also in the garden in front of the house and admire daisies, cornflowers and asters in moments of relaxation.
The British, like many people on Earth, value nature and love trees and flowers, so they surround their homes with them.
Such a house should have a simple but comfortable interior.
All these houses have their own face, take a closer look, and you will see it too.
Even from the photo one can feel the warmth of human hands, with what love and businesslike everything was done. And poultry only adds color to this rustic idyll.
"My home is my fortress" - so now not only the British say. After all, all people in the world understand that their home is part of the happy existence of a whole family.
There is no need to copy from the British their way of life, their homes and interiors. We are different, but no one forbids us to adopt the experience and learn from other peoples the quality of life, improve our culture of life, equip our homes, relying on the achievements and skills of Europeans.
The basis of English interior design is not only restraint and orderliness, but also reliability and continuity. Many houses with their contents are passed down from generation to generation. Antiques are especially prized. In order for them to retain their original appearance for a long time, people choose products from high-quality and durable materials. If some furniture breaks, then its owner is likely to repair and restore it, but not throw it away.
British design harmoniously combines rigor and high cost. There is no pomp and golden glitter of the Baroque in it, but there are many features that testify to the well-being of the owners.
History of origin
The English style in interiors began to form in the 18-19 centuries. Restrained Englishmen were not particularly carried away by the baroque and rococo, preferring restraint and classics.
The development of the genre was actively promoted by the Romanesque and Gothic styles. They are still found in the castles of the Middle Ages. Also contributed to the development of the direction of the Roman and Greek styles.
The early history of the formation of the English interior can be divided into two main stages - the Georgian style during the reign of King George (1714 - 1830) and the Victorian style (1838 - 1901).
The second period is associated with the reign of Queen Victoria. He combined the classics, colonial style and minor baroque elements. Over time, the colonial style formed as a separate trend against the background of important geographical discoveries for the country.
All directions were formed during the rapid development of the state. Industry developed, people gravitated towards prestige and expensive furnishings. Overseas interior items were popular, especially from rare and expensive materials.
Years and centuries passed, the fashion changed, and the interior of the English house did not undergo cardinal changes. This trend is due to the loyalty of the British to traditions. Therefore, today you can see such dwellings in a slightly modified form.
Style characteristic
The main features of English interior design:
- Zoning of premises. The dwelling is not just divided into different rooms. Most of the rooms are also zoned.
- Rooms can be small, and at the same time, a building can have multiple floors.
- Symmetry is observed. Doors, windows, rooms are symmetrical.
- The windows are large with wooden frames, usually light in color. The British deliberately do not change old wooden windows for new plastic ones in order to remain faithful to traditions and not spoil the appearance of the building's architecture. This is despite the fact that many old-style windows let cold air through.
- The main finishing materials of the English classics in the interior are natural wood, stone, leather, plaster, wallpaper with stripes or floral prints.
- Calm colors without sharp contrasts - pastel colors, brown and its shades, white, green, blue, light red, purple, terracotta. A golden color is also used, but most often it does not prevail.
- An obligatory attribute of the living room is a fireplace. On top of it is a shelf with decor and framed photographs (family values are important).
- Lighting both central and additional (floor lamps, candelabra, lamps). Light is evenly scattered.
- The furniture is dominated by classic. It can also include elements of other European styles - carved decor, Gothic motifs, twisted legs, bronze or brass inserts. Upholstery made of fabric, most often with a small pattern, or leather.
- Mostly natural textiles. Monochrome fabrics and stripes, a cage, with a plant pattern, most often small, are used.
- Decor is used - paintings, photographs in frames, vases, mirrors in old frames, figurines.
- There is no carelessness and chaos in the environment. The arrangement of furniture and decor is carefully thought out.
Is the style popular now, and who will it suit?
The English interior in the apartment does not lose its popularity for a long time. The point is not only that many of its adherents love to observe traditions. From the very first minutes, it by itself will charm you with coziness, impeccable taste and comfort. In such an atmosphere, you want to organize tea parties, spend time by the fireplace with loved ones, read an exciting English detective story, watch the weather change outside the large window.
The English style in the interior of the apartment will distract from the bustle and haste, which is unusual for the British.
All this together makes the direction relevant, since the situation evokes emotions that are sometimes lacking in the modern rhythm of life.
The genre is suitable for those who like the classic setting, symmetry and orderliness of objects. It will also appeal to connoisseurs of high-quality, comfortable and expensive furniture, which is not replete with pretentiousness.
The direction is suitable for collectors, since the setting may provide for the placement of collections of antiques and other items.
It is advisable to equip it for owners of small apartments with small rooms. The area of the premises of the British is usually small. This is due to the desire to heat homes faster and better during the cold season.
