Fun Fact: Ex: Maddy's home.The veranda ceiling is painted blue. In the south, those that believed in "haints" (haunts, ghosts, evil spirits) painted their ceilings on their veranda's blue, as spirits were not able to cross water. Painting them blue would ward off evil spirits from harming the house or family inside. 👻
This architecture is familiar to me as I grew up in a small town on the Mississippi Gulf Coast. I don't miss much from that area except front porches, courtyards, pine trees (and the food as we lived very near to New Orleans!). I now live on the west coast of Canada. Quite the change!
Certainly a change in Weather too😅☔ I love your story! 🥰🥰 I am not an expert in American architecture (I'll admit) but find it fascinating. I assume that Charleston & New Orleans have very close architectural styles?
@@dantierandbalogh Unfortunately I never made it to Charleston but yes, I believe the architecture is similar. It's the facinating blend of cultures in the history of New Orleans that created the beautiful architecture (and food). The French Quarter is one of the most romantic places I've ever visited. I haven't been back for a long time so it may have changed. I hope not!
@@dantierandbalogh Charleston & N.O. pretty different architecturally. Charleston was settled, via Virginia, by 2nd & 3rd sons of Royalist West Country gentry who fled or were sent to the colonies while Cromwell and his fanatics were chopping heads 😲😲 in London. Lots of Palladian style with a nod to sub-tropics (verandas). Palladian windows & doors direct from London shops or pattern books. Brick work was used extensively with the brick coming from ship ballast, also direct from London. Furniture was definitely Queen Anne & Chippendale. In addition to those West Countrymen, an influential group of French Huguenots with a bit more staid taste in architecture and decoration also settled in South Carolina. While design was plainer they had the best and most ornate silver plate and tableware. N.O.had been a Spanish city far longer than the French occupation but their numbers had always been smaller. Most notable Spanish influence is the frilly and Baroque iron balusters and railings that's still seen throughout the "French Quarter". Quintessentially Spanish Empire. French influence came with different waves of French settlers. First were those who were uprooted during the French & Indian War (Seven Years War). French Canadians (Acadians/ "Cajuns") and those disposed from Caribbean colonies (Dominica, Trinidad etc) lost to the British during the war. The first group were mostly farmers who settled in the swamps of south Louisiana. No significant architectural impact, but the Caribbean settlers brought heavy tiles for roofs (better hurricane wind protection) and a form of concrete based on oyster shell (for lime component). Thick walls moderated heat gain, withstood termites and storms. These Caribbean "French" and later those that fled the slave revolt in Haiti were often well off planters and merchants and thus had a deeper and stronger impact on building styles and design. Theses settlers established large sugar plantations farther up river but also maintained exquisite pied-à-terre for use during the winter agricultural off season for galas, dances and socializing. Plenty of Paris fashion but definite concessions to sub tropical living. Furniture made of tropical woods as opposed to domestic walnut, cherry or oak in the English settlements. Building wise they used walls of windows with shutters to provide lots of ventilation and shading. Also the kitchen as detached structure (mandatory) due to fire risk. Open, sweeping staircases also functioned as central hot air chimneys to cool the house. So lots of difference between Charleston & N.O.
@@dantierandbalogh It has some edge-of-your-seat moments, but also much beauty, humor, and lovable characters. And the house is gorgeous! And by the way, I really love your many perspectives on interior design! There are so many design sites that just push their own preferences and make people feel like Philistines for liking anything else, but you make the effort to respect every kind of taste out there. There's such a kindness and attention to detail in your work!

Good evening everyone. Never heard of this TV show.😊
Haint blue porch ceiling is a must, with a pretty blue hydrangea if the front porch lighting is right

The Locke and Key set had some fantastic interiors, if you're looking for suggestions.
Thank you! I haven't been brave enough to watch😅 How scary is it? I may attempt it this Halloween👻
