Dark academia

Dark academia is an aesthetic and cultural style inspired by a love of classic literature, Gothic architecture, and scholarly pursuits with a mysterious, often melancholic edge. It celebrates the romanticized aspects of academia, particularly those tied to the humanities, and is influenced by a sense of intellectual curiosity, classic philosophy, and a hint of the macabre. Think dimly lit libraries, vintage clothing, handwritten notes, and a fascination with art, poetry, and the quest for knowledge—all wrapped in shades of sepia, black, and earth tones.
