The Gustavian Set Part III

Step into a Swedish royal bathroom, complete with pristine porcelain, elegant gold trim, and lotions and potions all the way from Paris!

Real-life Gustavian bathrooms were rather bleak, like most 18th-century bathrooms, so I took a little inspiration from the 19th century instead.

This set includes:

Washing pitcher

Traveling vanity

Toilet

Soap dish

Sink

Vase of lupins

Lotions and potions

Ceiling light

Delft tile wallpaper

Gustavian bathroom wallpaper

Mosaic floor tiles

All items come in matching pastel swatches. The sink requires The Vampires Pack, all other items are base game compatible. You can find all items in-game by searching GUSTAVIAN.

The set is in Early access, and you can find it here

The set will be public on the 1.8.2026

Round 1, Match 78 — Gustavian vs. Mosscore

The Gustavian style is a form of Swedish Neoclassicism that flourished during the reign of King Gustav III, from approximately 1772 until his death in 1792, with its influence extending into the early 19th century. It is a restrained and refined interpretation of the French Neoclassical and Louis XVI styles, adapted for the Swedish climate and sensibilities. The style is defined by its elegant furniture, light and airy interiors, and a muted color palette designed to maximize light during Sweden's long, dark winters. It combines aristocratic sophistication with rustic simplicity, and remains highly influential in interior design today. Gustavian furniture uses graceful lines and delicate proportions. Pieces often feature straight, fluted or tapered legs, inspired by ancient Greek and Roman design. Surfaces are typically painted, rather than showing expensive wood grains, and often have a distressed or scraped finish that reveals layers of paint underneath. Carved details are common but used with restraint, including motifs like ribbons, medallions, swags, and laurel wreaths. Gilded accents are used sparingly. A defining feature of the style is its light and airy color scheme. This was a practical choice, designed to reflect as much natural light as possible and brighten interiors during the long, dark Scandinavian winters. The palette consists of soft, muted colors, including shades of pale grey, powdery blue, creamy white, soft yellow, and muted green. Floors were often left as light-colored, bare wood, and walls were painted in simple, solid colors or featured delicate patterns.

vs.

Mosscore is an aesthetic that focuses on forest and moss related things and objects. The main focus is dark, mossy forests and sometimes things like fungi and liverworts are prevalent. The main colour scheme is mostly various, usually dark, shades of green, browns and other natural hues, and light/bright colours almost never pop up. Man made objects in this aesthetic include, but are not limited to, shacks, huts and cabins. Mosscore fashion is similar to Dark Academia and Cryptidcore, but with a comfier twist (eg, plaid pants and a skirt with oxfords and a large dark green sweater and rolled down socks.) The look is associated with forests, studying, and chaos.

🏛️Living again the best neoclassical dream in Sweden - 📌 The great hall of Gunnebo Slott. This space stands out for its stately elegance, and for the richness in its walls and sculptures. This ones were made by Giocchino Frulli in 1786 and in this case the over door is an allegory to farming; the boiseries had all the attention by the main architect, remembering us to some Parisian private Hôtels. 🎵 Piano Concerto No. 22 in E♭ major, K. 482, 3rd movement - W.A.
