Bit of a style crossover here. Mackintosh mixed with something more Classical.
Getting the hang of the vray problems I think. |

I think you are too... but those columns really 'aren't working' for me.
Way too ornate for the Arts and Crafts philosophy. |

Nice lighting Chris. Is the room opened from the camera side? What are Vray settings? |

Combination of styles Spacekdet. Wanted a more classically built room decorated in a Mackintosh style.
vray setting to medium, with the second bounce a lightmap. Room is closed off, but more windows to the left of the camera view illuminate the entire space. |

Always like opposites combined in one scenery, gives room for more thoughts or journeys of phantasy. Will be looking curiously looking forward how this will grow :)
One question out of "town" though, the windows look american style, means you can push upwards the lower part of it. Do they have windows like this in Scotland too ( we in germany don't)? |

Didn't Mackintosh cross over into the Art Nouveau period?
Either way, contrast is good. Unless you are going for a period piece you would expect an ecclectic mix of styles that also include modernist pieces...:D |

Emma, I doubt it's an American style as we've been building them a lot longer. This is a sash window which uses cords and hidden counterweights to allow the lower part to be raised easily. The upper portion can drop down as well. This is a classic wooden window design in the UK, and is still used in many new houses, although modern pvc windows are also used.
I'm not an art historian Splinters, but I think arts and crafts was really the foundation for art nouveau, so it was not so much a crossover as an evolution. It still looks contemporary today, and I'm lucky enough to see it around town in architechture and interior design. |

Art Nouveau was the earlier Fine Art version more or less Chris with both being decorative arts. Arts and Crafts is about more down to earth stuff and MacIntosh was a genius. We live near a William Morris workshop
American architectural style is really European style of course... unless we're talking teepees and beaver lodges <runs away>
