The Victorian era is known for its eclectic revival & interpretation of historic styles & the introduction of cross-cultural influences from the middle east & Asia in furniture, fittings, & Interior decoration. Victorian design is widely viewed as having indulged in a regrettable excess of ornament. The Arts & Crafts movement, the aesthetic movement, Anglo-Japanese style & Art Nouveau style have their beginnings in the late Victorian era. Interior decoration & interior design of the Victorian era are noted for orderliness & ornamentation. A house from this period was idealistically neatly divided in rooms, with public & private space carefully separated. The Parlour was the most important room in a home & was the showcase for the home-owners; where guests were entertained. A bare room was considered to be in poor taste, so every surface was filled with objects that reflected the owner's interests & aspirations. The dining room was the second most important room in the house. The sideboard was most often the focal point of the dining room & very ornately decorated.
