My boyfriend is moving in the very near future and I am so excited because I am dying to decorate for him. He always tells me he is into Gothic style but if you saw his apartment now you would never know it; there's hardly anything in there! True bachelor pad, I suppose. If I'm being totally honest, I wouldn't say Gothic was near the top of my design style favorites. I like things to be a little more airy and definitely more brightly colored. After I had to veto a few mugshot artworks (no joke), I decided to find some inspiration for a more contemporary Gothic style that Squeakers would enjoy without sending me running in fear.

This room features the typical elements of Gothic style -- Damask fabric, a gilded mirror, beautiful chandelier, black walls -- while bright pops of color and contemporary furniture shapes make the room feel more updated.

Iron balconies, a black fireplace, and deep punches of red bring a touch of Goth to this airy living room.
How did I do Squeakers, do you like these?
Anyone else planning on trying an updated Gothic look anytime soon?
