ANCIENT CLASSICS: MY STYLE TOO

About My Art, Architecture, Elegant Decor, Home office decor ideas, Inspiration

I realised how much I appreciate some classical English stately home decor from my trip to Ashridge House in Hertfordshire recently. I was surprised as I thought a lot of my style comes from my Caribbean heritage and London urban living and my immersion in corporate training.

But I discovered how much I love the juxtaposition of earthy stone tones with the bling of gold frames that can be found in some English Stately homes like Ashridge.

The amazing thing about Ashridge house is that it used to be where Henry the VIII and Elizabeth 1st lived. It is also famous for various films like Beauty and the Beast, Malificent, killing Eve and More.

I appreciate Ashridge over other English stately homes because its decor is clean allowing the natural materials of construction and accessories to shine through

We dined out at The Alford Arms a lovely Cosy pub nearby
