Feeling Royal

... as you may already know, my always favourite interior design styles are Arabian - bedouin and  luxurious Arabic, Moroccan, desi (Pakistan and India) and the 60's. Now, it's about a different style i've always stood far away from -- the royal style of European interiors, no matter whether it was about classical originals or any modern interpretations. 
I know it's not correct from a specialist's point of view, but i like to call it 'royal' to myself meaning several interior decorating styles like classicism, baroque, rococo, bourgeois,  neo gothic and even classic country all together. Of course, it's impossible not to admire the artistic beauty of all these styles, but i never considered any of their elements for my home (financial aspect apart 8].
Now, i don't know what's happened, may be... maturing?? Anyway, exactly these brilliant works by some worldwide famous decorators have definitely found a way to my heart! I can imagine myself feeling comfortable, cozy and inspired inside their modern Renaissance spaces! Another deco-stream to keep an eye on! 

↑ I am starting with an interior designed by legendary Mario Buatta, an American interior decorator, who is considered 'a premier interpreter of English country-house classicism' (still i have a feeling, Italy is always present in his designs, do you, too?) and whose works speak to me the most! There'll be more rooms by Mario Buatta down below.
