Informality is the basis of this style

This highly colourful style was the vouge between 1910 - 1930. This very personal style requires confidence and panache. It sees home decoration more of an art form, than other styles. The elements must be old, vintage or antique. China, plates, bowls and glassware are used as decoration in the home, more than as utensiles. Fabric paints and dryes are used on furniture in large, exaggerated, abstract motifs and stencils. Color is an intricate and vital apect of the bohemian style.

Clarleston Manor in London, was decorated in the Bohemian Style around 1915, and has now been restored and is open to the public.
