This week's décor inspiration is the work of Parisian architect & interior designer, Jean-Louis Deniot, whose style can be best described as new or cool classical, and who often references the designs of Adolph Loos for "exactness", Dorothy Draper for "the theatrical side to her design", Renzo Mongiardino for his "collector's spirit", and Peter Marino for "couture-style luxury".
. . . ever since we begun decorating our place, have been collecting inspiration photos of gallery walls, as well as frames of varying shades and colours, but always seem to be drawn to black, white & gold; it is always fascinating to how other walls have come together, to examine the parts that make up the whole, and not only is this wall, above, in decorative-arts dealers laurence and patrick seguin’s beautifully assembled, but it also happens to be the ground floor of a 17th-century mansion in le marais, in paris . . .
isn’t this room astonishing? designed by catherine kwong for the san francisco decorator showcase, and inspired by mick & bianca jagger in the ’70’s, it is the very definition of ornate austerity
