There’s a lot to love about Victorian house interiors. With their ornate
architecture, elegant proportions and intricate detailing, they were
built to be admired, and they’ve stood the test of time, too. One third
of the houses in Britain were built before the First World War, and most
of these are Victorian. Under Queen Victoria’s rule, Britain saw a boom
in new builds in a period of less than 75 years, over 6m houses were
built, and the majority still stand today.

Gothic Revival – The epitome of high Victorian taste, especially
popular after Pugin designed the Houses of Parliament in Gothic style in
the late 1830s. Look for pointed roofs and arches, stained glass
windows, embellishments such as gargoyles and ecclesiastical touches
such as turrets.
