Hello Magazine has shown these pictures of the newly refurbished quarters in Amelienborg Palace in Copenhagen, for Crown Prince Frederick and Crown Princess Mary. Whilst the first image comes as no surprise, and one can glory in the beauty of the C18th interiors, subsequent images are unexpected, to put it kindly. Whilst I am very much in favour of mixing very modern within neoclassical interiors, with different styles of furniture within that, (so that one removes the museum quality that pervades say Buckingham Palace), these wall effects are just plain ghastly. The third image appears to have a sink and counter at the lower level, which would be fine, but the mural is just bizarre, and why compound the horror by gilding the panelling and the freize?
