Hello everyone!
I'm not from the UK, but and I'm writing a coursework and really need some help. The theme of my coursework is "The favourite architectural and interior era of the British people when they choosing their own houses."
According to information found on the Internet, the most popular are Georgian, Victorian, Edwardian, and interwar/modern period (Arts&Crafts and Art Deco).
So, I need to take a poll. If you were not limited by money, architectural and interior style of what era would you choose? (It would be nice if you chose of the above). House and interior (it may be different, of course). You can tell why you have chosen this option.
So, I really hope you understood my bad English, and that you will not refuse to help me. If you have any questions, please ask. I will try to explain in more detail. Well, thank you for your attention.

My preference is 'modern-comfortable' not to be confused with 'modern-stark' or 'modern-uncomfortable'.

Definitely Georgian. I love the fashion and architecture from that period, it was very extravagant. I also love the classical influence that can be clearly seen in the architecture, true to the basic principles of proportion and symmetry. The Victorian era by comparison was far more reserved.

Georgian is my favourite architecture as well.
