Island Road

The design inspiration in this soft contemporary home came from the warm oranges, reds, and yellows from the movie Indochine based in 1930-50 and the vintage interior styles of films from the mid-1960’s, where color is strong and kept to the furnishings. The homeowners had a love of elegance, art deco, antiques, and Hmong culture hence the gold, black, warm woods, and ethnic influences. Can’t you see Marlene Dietrich or Hedy Lamarr flowing down the curved stairs in a sumptuous gown?
