Extremely hard to do. If you have a great space, like an apartment in Paris with tall ceilings it will be easier than a regular house. I have some midcentury pieces with Chinese Art Deco rugs and my couch is a jewel tone so I think it can be done, but I wouldn’t say my style is overall midcentury. I love your idea of wallpaper or curtains, like a William morris design??? More on reddit.com

This is eclecticism/mash-up in my eyes, I never heard of "modern Victorian". Maybe it's a thing in the US, but I'd consider it a marketing name moreso than an actual style. Nice floor and chairs, the dining area works well with that sill/bench, but the mirror and the ceiling is a big clash and doesn't work at all imho. More on reddit.com

They would have called it the Parlor back then. More on reddit.com

Well… that could involve a lot of over-decoration with elaborate design features. If you look at pictures of actual Victorian drawing rooms… it’s a lot. There is a LOT happening there for people who are accustomed to more modern taste. For me, it’s too cluttered and claustrophobic. Look at images of “modern Victorian design” and you’ll see a scaled-back version. And realistically, that explosion of stuff was fairly limited to people who could afford to buy it. Single men wouldn’t have had doilies everywhere, and of course not all women were into their homes dripping with red velvet. It’s worth trying to suss out what you specifically like about the aesthetics. Are you into the lacy “romantic” concept? Liking dark, heavy wood? Dreaming of bed curtains? Gothic grandeur? For the most part, furniture is furniture except houses didn’t have closets. You would have had lots of folding/stacking of clothes or using a wardrobe. Not for nothing— my parents hid their TVs for years. One was in a large Chinese cabinet and another in a closet recess. Nothing wrong with disguising the giant black square. More on reddit.com
