A simple way to modernise your period home is by utilising and celebrating these period features,\u00a0whilst\u00a0\u00a0creating contrasts between two different time periods. You may decide to re-think your ceiling colour to contrast and enhance the ornate cornicing, whilst enabling an expression of individuality through choice of colour. You can utilise a classic ceiling rose to give a room a modern touch by contrasting it with a simple ceiling light.\u00a0\u00a0A simple ceiling light allows the detail of the ceiling rose to still be a focus point of the room and avoids history being lost beneath\u00a0\u00a0a\u00a0 modern day feature.<\/p>\n<p><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"size-medium wp-image-196 alignleft\" src=\"http:\/\/pwdp.uk\/rlpm\/wordpress\/wp-content\/uploads\/2018\/09\/sdfghj-300x200.jpg\" alt=\"sdfghj\" width=\"300\" height=\"200\" srcset=\"https:\/\/pwdp.uk\/rlpm\/wordpress\/wp-content\/uploads\/2018\/09\/sdfghj-300x200.jpg 300w, https:\/\/pwdp.uk\/rlpm\/wordpress\/wp-content\/uploads\/2018\/09\/sdfghj-768x512.jpg 768w, https:\/\/pwdp.uk\/rlpm\/wordpress\/wp-content\/uploads\/2018\/09\/sdfghj-1024x682.jpg 1024w, https:\/\/pwdp.uk\/rlpm\/wordpress\/wp-content\/uploads\/2018\/09\/sdfghj-1200x800.jpg 1200w, https:\/\/pwdp.uk\/rlpm\/wordpress\/wp-content\/uploads\/2018\/09\/sdfghj.jpg 1600w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 300px) 85vw, 300px\" \/><\/p>\n<p><strong>Statement Colours &#8211;\u00a0<\/strong>The colour schemes of the Victorian era were dark and gloomy, an idea to keep in touch with the time period is through the use of dark colours and hues on the walls then including a modern twist\u00a0by adding a touch of colour in home furnishings.\u00a0For example you could add colour through simple furnishings like candles and cushions, or you could consider adding a pop of colour to your floor using\u00a0a bold\u00a0rug &#8211;\u00a0why not consider a\u00a0geometric design to give a further modern feel.<\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"size-medium wp-image-193 alignleft\" src=\"http:\/\/pwdp.uk\/rlpm\/wordpress\/wp-content\/uploads\/2018\/09\/dfghnmj-300x200.jpg\" alt=\"dfghnmj,\" width=\"300\" height=\"200\" srcset=\"https:\/\/pwdp.uk\/rlpm\/wordpress\/wp-content\/uploads\/2018\/09\/dfghnmj-300x200.jpg 300w, https:\/\/pwdp.uk\/rlpm\/wordpress\/wp-content\/uploads\/2018\/09\/dfghnmj-768x512.jpg 768w, https:\/\/pwdp.uk\/rlpm\/wordpress\/wp-content\/uploads\/2018\/09\/dfghnmj-1024x683.jpg 1024w, https:\/\/pwdp.uk\/rlpm\/wordpress\/wp-content\/uploads\/2018\/09\/dfghnmj-1200x800.jpg 1200w, https:\/\/pwdp.uk\/rlpm\/wordpress\/wp-content\/uploads\/2018\/09\/dfghnmj.jpg 1620w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 300px) 85vw, 300px\" \/><\/p>\n<p><strong>Making\u00a0An Entrance\u00a0&#8211;\u00a0\u00a0<\/strong>You may wish to\u00a0modernise your home externally to make it stand out in comparison to similar properties on your street.
