How To Dark Academia. A Tour of the Gentleman Wake's Study

A little bonus content here!
We just moved... and I'm still working on the top ten tuck cases video but unfortunately still need more work to bring the new set up to par with the old one... in fact to commemorate the old study I'm posting this tour of the previous set! This had previously only been visible on my Patreon page and thanks to those folks its now up for everyone to view. The new Study is still under construction so hopefully you guys will get to see it soon! Top Ten video is still coming!

    The two things that impress me most would have to be: the fact that it reflects the two of you as one couple, and that you're able to make Victorian style home within the confines of an apartment. I grew up in an actual Victorian style home, and I live in an apartment. I never would have thought about merging both worlds. Well played my friend!

    Big fan of the new and classic Sherlock shows! I think you have nailed the look! I just bought some pillows that would go with your design perfectly! They look much like that pillow you have with the flowers on it except blended into the pattern is two skulls that are actually kind of large but fit in so well that you don't really notice it right off. On the opposite side of the pillow there is a very nice picture of either a bat, raven or skull that are done in the block printing style that was used for publications until the 1950s. They are actually very well made and soft pillows and believe it or not we got them at Krogers/Payless in the Halloween section! Anywho, thanks for sharing your space with us!

I like this kind of videos. you should do a video about yourself, letting us know things like where do you live, for how long you're interested in cards, what drew your attention into cards, these kind of stuff.

    If you're up to DIY a bunch of stuff, it could be easier and cheaper than you think. The frames can be fixed up with carved wood accents you can hot glue to a frame, and with some gold Rustoleum -- boom, fine looking frame. Antique shops are great places to find classic hardbacks and vintage furniture/decor.

    The before and after shots are incredible. Going from an almost sterile environment to a true home feel is very inviting! You could enjoy a coffee while reading something from your well rounded collection or a nice Scotch while watching TV. Question.. how does the gramaphone sound with other types of music? I have a modern twist on a record player. It has a USB port so I can listen to my wife collection of music. Although it lacks the bass of modern speakers, the sounds come out clean and like music that came out from just before boom boxes came out. Yeah.. dated myself there.. lol.

    Good morning Gentleman Wake, hoping everyone is well, beautiful room and a rather unique combination of looks that seem to accent each others ... Being a fan of Gerome I recognized "Markos Botsaris" immediately, I must confess that his rendition of "Diogenes", "Last Prayer of The Christian Martyrs" and "Gladiators" are among my favorites, but his beautiful "Madeleine Juliette" (Dolls) touches me like no other work of art ever has, he captures a sense of purity and innocence that is amazing ... on another note have you ever read Marvels very first graphic novel "The Death of Captain Mar-vel" excellent graphics and a wonderful story ... I know, I'm getting long winded again (I apologize) ... there is much more I would like to say about the collections in your collection, but for now a huge "thumbs up" to the Lady Wake for wonderful sense of expression (oh and yours as well) and as always thanks for sharing this wonderful look behind the scenes
