The prominent colours seem to be deep reds and greens aswell as a lot of dark wood. These prominet colours i feel would work well in the set as they give a vibrant back drop to the action. I also think it would bring the set to life as people do tend to associate these colours with the victorian era.
thre also seems to be a strong element of the floral world. This is prominent especially in the crockery. I think that it would be quiet nice to bring that into the set. However I think it might be a good idea to get some dead flowers t put in to the set to add to the creepy and uncanny atmosphere.
It might also work bringing this into the fabric choice. I think there is something somewhat chaotic about floral fabric with the mix of colours and shapes it presents.
On the theme of clutter. While looking through victorian furniture have noticed several small stands or tables which reminded me of something that is in the store.I think it would be great to incorperate this and fill it's shelves with clutter.
I think it would add to the uncanny edge by mixing up a few obviously modern objects with obviously oler ones. again this is something slightly odd and out of place I think some teacups, easily picked up in a charity shop for little money would add alot to the chaotic vibe if scattered and placed half hazardly on the stand.
In terms of the bed I think that it looks too bodern and wouldn't fit the set we are going for, however with a little dressing I think it could look better. I think a bed crown could be constructed with a little work and the curtain fabric we have. i have seen a few and I think that they could look good. It might be worth trying.
So there a few ideas for the decor and general vibe of the set. I think that the victorian idea described in class is something strong and I think audiences always associate the victorian era with a level of macabre and oddness, something that will work well with the uncanny Brief.
