Get the Ascot Look

The Ascot look is all about understated luxury. Think classic English elegance with a modern twist: deep upholstery, sculptural lighting, and refined accessories that feel sophisticated. It’s not flashy or overdone, but layered and full of character. Whether you’re styling a townhouse living room or a countryside home, these elements bring a sense of refinement that feels timeless.

Libra’s Ascot styling snapshot

• Start with a foundation of rich textures, like velvet or boucle

• Anchor your scheme with sculptural tables in black or metallic tones

• Introduce statement lighting with colour and character

• Add decorative details with equestrian-inspired sculptures for personality

• Keep accessories pared back but purposeful

A velvet foundation: the Wicklow Sofa

At the heart of the Ascot look sits the Wicklow 2-Seater Sofa in Brown Velvet. Its deep tones and soft texture create a natural focal point, offering both comfort and elegance. This piece pairs beautifully with warm neutral walls, layered with cushions in muted greens, creams, or terracotta to tie into the season.

Sculptural Surfaces: Belvedere Tables

Tables in the Ascot style are both functional and design statements. The Belvedere Black Nesting Coffee Tables and Belvedere Black Nesting Side Tables ground a room with their bold black bases and reflective tops. Their versatile nesting design allows for flexible arrangements, while their sculptural form complements both modern and traditional interiors. Style with stacked books, a single vase, or a pair of candles to complete the look.

Elegant lighting with personality

Lighting is another essential for this Ascot look. The Aubrey Green Ceramic Table Lamp adds an elegant dash of colour without overwhelming the scheme. Its ceramic base feels timeless yet modern, while the soft shade creates an inviting glow. Place on a console, side table, or in pairs for balanced symmetry beside the sofa.

Character in the details: animal sculptures

No Ascot-inspired home is complete without decorative touches that add personality and character. Horse sculptures, in particular, tie beautifully into the heritage of Ascot. The Bay Horse Head Sculpture makes a dignified statement on a console or mantel, while the Nuzzling Bay Horse Head Sculpture introduces a softer, more emotive touch that works well on shelving or side tables. These equestrian-inspired pieces not only reflect Ascot’s racing heritage but also bring style and depth to your interiors.

Bringing the look together

The Ascot style is about bringing together classic furniture with contemporary accents, rich textures paired with sculptural details, and accessories that spark interest without clutter. With the Wicklow Sofa, Belvedere Tables, Aubrey Lamp, and equestrian horse sculptures, you can recreate this sophisticated aesthetic in your own home. The result is a room that’s refined and classy.
