8 by 8 Design History Concept Board Research

The interior design style I' am researching is Empire.  This type of design was started to be used in the 18th century by the Roman Empire. This design is also a design of more straight and simpler designs. Other characsteristics are that it was a very royal style and it may be simple at times but very intricate. Common colors used with this type of interior design is blues, golds, purples, greens and blacks and white. All of these colors used in a vey royal way.

One famous room that was created based on this empire style is Napoleons room at Fontainebleau, which is the picture with the green lounge chair above this.
