The vibe in the neutral living room is decidedly calm and composed—“a clean, ethereal moment,” The space has glamour or visual interest, from the fluted plaster fireplace surround and the sculptural cocktail table in hammered brass to the abstract, neo-Expressionist-style triptych by that spans the wall behind the midcentury-like curved sofa in sumptuous gray velour.

Art deco — that familiar style of art, architecture and design with a sometimes-wacky blend of historic and futuristic influences — is still beloved. And if trend forecasters are to be believed, we are ripe for a full-scale art deco revival. After all, in some ways 2021 feels a lot like 1920.

The Characteristics of Art Deco

Heavy geometric influences.

Triangular shapes.

Zigzags.

Trapezoidal shapes.

Straight and smooth lines.

Loud, vibrant, and even kitschy colors.

Sunburst or sunrise motifs.

Entertaining spaces have traditionally received the greatest amount of design attention in the home, but now our private quarters are taking on a whole new level of importance. Bedrooms are being transformed into high-design home sanctuaries, with furnishings selected not only to offer a good night’s sleep but also to serve as calming cocoons for escape.

The approach is holistic and collaborative in that architecture and interior design must work together seamlessly. We always begin by selecting references—whether from historical precents, lifestyle imagery or art. The work is grounded in and influenced by these points of view, which we then elaborate on and translate to create ownership of the client.

“It’s all about the mix, where something traditional doesn’t feel dated, and something modern doesn’t feel futuristic. It feels practical and real.”
