Modern Victorian Interior Design

This modern Victorian interior design reimagines a turn-of-the-century LoHi home with a bold, unconventional approach to color and pattern. Sticking to Wyandot House's original character while embracing unexpected hues, the design pairs classic Victorian-style furniture with moody Pacific Ocean Blue walls, vibrant citron accents, and burnished brass finishes. Custom velvet upholstery featuring a striking Foo-dog motif adapted from paintings by local Denver artist Madeleine O'Connell brings contemporary flair to traditional forms. These daring fabric choices and bright accents brought this historic home back to life with a sophisticated atmosphere perfect for entertaining. The result is a chic design that proves historic homes are far more interesting when they embrace bold, colorful interior design rather than period-appropriate palettes.
