New Orleans style: Creole and shotgun traditional
New Orleans style comes from Creole cottages, shotguns and French Quarter townhouses: high ceilings, tall windows, plaster walls, dark wood, transoms and a layered, slightly bohemian mix of old furniture and art. Color is saturated and the palette is warm.
