We’ve coupled together two sophisticated home interiors that illustrate how grey decor melds beautifully with the neoclassical style. The first is a chic and sleek, modern meets classic affair. Wall panel molding has been added into the surroundings to trim and accentuate some more contemporary pieces. Gold and copper trims and accessories add shine and glamour to the finish. Home tour number two offers up a more maximalist approach, with plentiful furniture designs, and home style ideas galore. This plethora of beautiful things is set against a wonderful backdrop of traditional ceiling coving, highly decorative boiserie and smart wainscotting.
Our first neoclassical interior design begins in a serene lounge that houses a low profile grey fabric sofa. The seating stretches out in a sleek line along a light herringbone floor. It divides the common living space into two, with one half playing host to the comfortable lounge area and the other reserved for a chic kitchen dining combo.

The modern sofa provides seating in every direction, meaning family and friends can choose to focus their attention into the kitchen area whilst still relaxing back on the couch. The walls of the open plan living space sport traditional style panel molding, painted with a whisper of grey. One especially large section of panel molding frames the flat screen tv.

King of the bedroom decor scheme is a lion art print, which dominates a grey wainscot wall. White bedside table lamps stand out against the grey; these are the Atollo lamp. Cheaper replicas are available on Ebay.
Semi translucent closet doors allow a subtle reveal of the wardrobe contents inside. A flat screen tv has been mounted onto one half of the closet to align the screen at the optimum viewing angle from the bed. A large tinted glass vase sprouts a dried floral arrangement at its side.

Our second tour begins in a lounge that is packed with gorgeous grey home decor, including a striking modern coffee table set at its centre. A unique modern chandelier hangs above the nesting coffee tables, echoing the round shape of the tallest.

A sofa unit spans the back of the light grey couch; its white top matches the crisp white walls in the room, whilst dark wood effect doors give the piece some visual weight.
26 |
The sofa also has integrated bookshelves along one side of it. An individual bookcase climbs the wall on the other side of the room, and more shelves span the top of the tv wall.

Deeply decorative boiserie swags across the window wall. Gold and glass orb dining pendant lights gleam over a table behind the lounge.

Another bedroom houses a cosy bed that is beautifully layered with monochrome striped sheets and pillows, a soft grey comforter and a tasselled chevron throw. A grey shelving stack opposite the foot of the bed includes contrasting wooden cubbies. Unusual treasures and textbooks fill the shelves. Up on the ceiling, stunning coving trims the room like royal icing.

A marble bench seat has been fashioned in the hallway. A tower of grey shelves climb from its side, displaying items that add personality to the home. A bank of white storage cabinets stretch away from the nook.
