The Gothic chic style at a glance
Gothic chic revisits medieval and romantic aesthetics with elegance. Walls are painted black or a very deep gray, dark velvet covers the armchairs and wrought iron shapes the light fixtures. Candelabras and touches of burgundy add drama. Light is scarce and directed, giving the room a mysterious, intimate and surprisingly refined atmosphere.
To adopt it without turning your home into a film set, start with a dark, matte base, then add a few noble materials: velvet, leather and patinated metal. Keep accessories few: an antique mirror, candles and a bouquet of dark flowers.

Gothic chic suits bedrooms, living rooms and dining rooms. It sits close to dark academia and Baroque styles, with a darker, more romantic edge. Dark florals on a velvet cushion are an easy, affordable way to test the mood first.
