Decorator Showcase 2018:

"Good Vibes! - Meditations On Family"

Christopher Stark Photography

I love the movies. This house inspired me to think of 1930s Screwball Romantic Comedies. Something rarely seen in such films are kitchens, so I thought for the back of the house I would turn up the Technicolor and trade it in for contemporary digital cinema. If the house is a Romantic Screwball Comedy, then this is a G Rated Family Film. I used furniture from Coup D'Etat to create a living area that is modern and comfortable as a space to lounge about. I wanted brightness and charm for this space and have integrated decorative objects that are the perfect fit for this objective. The large open space tells the story of a family's journey through a day: Up in the morning for a healthy breakfast. A meditation and stretch to keep mind and body grounded. Ending in the open seating area to lounge about to tell stories of the day before enjoying some Netflix, or a good book. If this room was a movie, it would be Rated G, but this is interior design so I thought it should be Rated IS, for Ian Stallings.
