A majestic style of the 17th–18th centuries, symbolizing absolute power and grandeur. Architecture is based on dynamic symmetrical compositions — domes, columns, and curved staircases. Interiors feature lavish stucco moldings, gilded frames, and massive furniture upholstered in heavy fabrics like velvet, brocade, and silk. The color palette is rich — gold, burgundy, emerald. Baroque plays with contrasts of light and shadow, grand scales, and creates a theatrical, magnificent, and dramatic impression.
