Visually Interesting Conservatory

Jersey Born — Sun, 06 Jun 2021 17:45:42 GMT

There is something about this room that I truly love from the unusual light fixture to the starry ceiling to the Gothic windows, and flooring detail. I could imagine sitting in that room with many others discussing things of great importance in the world.

It is ornate, and visually stimulating, but not my thing. I admire people that step out of the box and decorate with such original ideas.

It is magnificent. elegant, stunning and for me a very big YES!!!!! The ceiling is spectacular and unique, the furnishings the windows, decor all beautiful. I too could easily be very comfortable in this space and embrace my surroundings.

Reminds me of the Whistler Peacock Rooms of the Freer/Sackler Smithsonian in D.C.

@Jersey Born This is just beautiful... I adore it and part of the joy of having this room would be knowing it's uniquely yours...

@Jersey Born It is a beautiful room. I especially like the windows, and blue is my favorite color.

I like this so much I wanted to know more about it. While we can't, unfortunately, post links... anyone interested need only Google the picture to learn an article about this space (and added pictures) appears on the New England home magazine (nehomemag.com) website. The title of the article is Massachusetts Gothic and it appeared in July of 2012... There are also lots of links to Pinterest and elsewhere...

What a spectacular room! I don’t know anything about the rest of the building, but I would want to spend all my time in this place of peace and beauty.

I especially love the window & the two chairs. The rest I could pass on.

Thank you, @stevieb - I didn't know one could Google images, and due to your post, I have now been able to find and admire the incredible room leading up to that marvellous conservatory. How I wish I could enlarge the image of the room below to fully explore all of the details of the gorgeous Gothic bookcase within:

What a majestic and sort of magical room! I can imagine doing a lot of dreaming in this room.

It looks like a magnificent movie set.

Imagine the people who live there!

This room is stunning! My first thought was that this couldn't possibly be in a private home, but further reading shows that it is. For me it has nothing to do with what is in my home or how I would decorate - it's rather a peek inside a gorgeous home with a room that is breathtaking!

OK, I'll say it, way too ornate, crowded with furniture & none of the style (with the exception of the "blue" color) appeals to me. I don't find this home to be relaxing at all. Thank you for sharing.

Thank you so much for the enlargement of that photo and that bookcase, @lolakimono. I find that bookcase breathtakingly beautiful.

@Jersey Born Love it! Will the keys be delivered directly to me, or do I have to pick them up?

Blue is my favorite color and the windows are lovely. I do hope the cleaning staff comes along with all. 😁

I usually would not like all the clutter in this room but, for whatever the reason I LOVE IT 🥰

Enchanting. This room evokes magical fantasies. I could sit in this room, while pondering greater, mysterious things, for an eternity.
