Vote for the best period style

You may choose up to three options. If your preferred style direction isn't on the list, just comment and tell us about it.
Grouping the styles into 10 options wasn't easy because many of them overlap and branch out to different variations.

 

Art Deco, Victorian - Gothic & Renaissance revival imparticular

 

Craftsman

 

Is it the same as arts and crafts?

 

I should think so.

 

Art Nouveau (jewelry, glassware), Art Deco (architecture, ceramics, jewelry), Victorian (jewelry).

Wait...only 3?????????? I'm going to cheat.
Queen Anne, Arts and Crafts (furniture)

 

I could never make up my mind. Each has it's merits. Just call me eclectic, LOL.

 

I'd have added in British Arts and Crafts and Georgian. Neat vote!

 

Arts and Crafts from both sides of the pond. Macintosh to Wright (if you could call his Prairie House furnishings A & C.

 

Victorian for me all the way.

 

Art Nouveau in furniture and metal work , Also Chippendale in furniture , And Victorian style in Glassware and jewellery ,

I like the Victorian use of Black jet stone in there jewellery and some household carvings ,

 

Arts & Crafts from both sides of the Atlantic - just about anything. Art Nouveau for graphics, metalwork and some of the clothes. Mid-century for furniture and jewelry design.

 

I voted for Victorian, A.N, and A.D. They're my favourite styles/groups of styles. I've always been a HUGE fan of Art Deco. Art Noveau not so much, but I do still like it if it's something really fancy. And I love Victorian styling.

 

Baroque is the least beloved one so far. The gustavian style also doesn't have votes and I think that's because most Americans probably aren't very familiar with it.

Personally I found it hard to choose because I like most of these styles, my least favourites being art deco and chippendale.

 

I like plain Georgian oak or arts and crafts

 

Oh, and I forgot, for printed material, Art Deco and Art Nouveau. You can't beat those wonderful Deco travel posters with ocean liners...and Alphonse Mucha's Nouveau designs - YUM!

 

I love those posters too and have quite a few though I don't think I have any that old. More 50s and 60s maybe 70s.

 

My preference is Arts and Crafts. Generally prefer the English/Scottish variant but there is plenty from the US I like. Chose Deco, Art Nouveau, and Empire/Biedermeier from the list. Surprised that no one has mentioned Mid Century Modern. I also like it a lot but you can only have so much stuff, so it tends to get regulated to inventory for the most part. If I ever had a dedicated guest room, I would like to do a funky MCM room.

 

Art Nouveau and Art Deco. The way they play with light. Love Charles Rennie Mackintosh, but my absolute favourite is the Horta house in Brussels:

When I hear Horta, my philistine American brain goes straight to the moving rock pizzas from Star Trek.
