The old world style connects us with the traditional artistic historical past where everything was handmade and had a purpose, a meaning for its presence and an energy to share. The old world style is a collage of design styles that spread in the early 18th century, whose influences come from various eastern regions, be it the Mediterranean coast or the Indian subcontinent. But no matter where it originates from, the appearance of ancient architecture and royalty from centuries past will always have its unique charm.
The old world look offers an eclectic interplay between warm and conventional interiors. The furnishings are antique but stately, the rooms are grandiosely opulent but cozy. The old world gates carved with the elements of nature like the rays of the sun and the blooming lotus give us the energy of grounding. Elaborately carved entry arches and solid wood columns with stone bases, the dynamic shift of energy resonates throughout the home.
You love the feel of old wood, the rustic patinas and old hand-carved doors turned into chai tables, the chests of hope on wheels with their eclectic charm and iron straps, each piece has historical charm and purpose. The Chests of Hope bring with them the dreams of the new bride and the blessings of her parents as she begins her new journey with her husband. The Haveli door is brimming with antique bronze carved in gold and lotus, the iron nails piercing through the solid teak wood and bending back, so that the ions attracted to the metals are grounded through the wood. Energy balance design is necessary today in our 21st century, where all electronic devices are accessed remotely and electromagnetic charge wreaks havoc on our health.
Rustic interiors are simple and have an unassuming connection to the past. The feel of the kamasutra carved barn or tribal carved barns is honest, worldly, and evokes a simpler time when we sat together as a family for tea or dinner. Reclaimed woods and repurposed cabinets provide an impressive showcase for creativity. Today’s world is virtual and the connection to the real is lost, the rustic old world style is boldly earthy and obviously real.
