In post-1991 Macedonia, Barok furniture came to represent affluence and success during a period of transition to a new market economy. This furniture marked the beginning of a larger Baroque style that influenced not only interior decorations in people's homes but also architecture and public spaces.

Investigating how Baroque has come to signify larger social processes and transformations in the current rebrandin. |
