Luxury, Tamed! - NY Times
Kips Bay Decorator Show House was a tribute to Albert Hadley, the Tennessee-born minimalist who provided a balance for the English country house-style maximalism of his partner, Sister Parish. Check out some on the luscious photos of eclectic interior decorating at it's best:Liza Cousins and Natasha Bergreen's softer design incorporated used athletic equipment and a sofa from Ms. Bergreen's aunt.
Combining a very traditional bed with a beautiful lilac fabric, makes the bed a perfect fit in this modern room.
The wallpaper in Jamie Drake's room was handpainted by Alpha Workshops. It's wonderful when you can fit a sofa that long in your room. Every furniture piece and color complements each other exquisitely.
William T. Georgis's panic room anticipated impending global catastrophe with a twirling disco ball, automatic weapons (reproductions, of course) and a Russ Meyer movie.
An homage to the "Bocca della Verità " (The Mouth of Truth) in Rome, John Ike's room is a challenge to "be your truest self" in bed, he said. The bales of hay he used as side tables were "just an idea."

Hi, This is Ilies.

I hope hearing from you soon.
thank you again and good luck.
These were pretty fun! Don't know how I've gotten this far without including hay bales or a disco ball in my interiors. Takes a client with some serious pluck to let you include some of these whimsical elements. On the other hand -- my husband had a surfboard leaning in the corner of his kitchen when we met. Who knew he was ahead of his time with interior design?
