The Paris apartment of Hubert de Givenchy, featured in AD in 1978, included a wide-ranging mix of furnitureincluding a large cabinet and writing desk by Andr-Charles Boulle.

Hannah Martin, ADs senior design editor, is rooting for the Louis XIV writing desk to make a rebound. In Hubert de Givenchys Paris apartment, published by AD in 1978, a stunning desk and cabinet by Andr-Charles Boulle, cabinetmaker to Louis XIV, mix in with slick black lacquered finishes, low-lying furniture, and mirrored surfaces, she says. I love this particularly 70s brand of eclecticism and would like to see more interiors that play with French antiques from this era. A woman after my own heart!

Patrick Meles bedroom at the 2024 Kips Bay Decorator Show House in New York, featuring its modern take on an old-school style: patterned wall-to-wall carpeting.

AD, September/October 1972

For Madeline OMalley, ADs market director, its all about patterned wall-to-wall carpet. Theres something that feels very creativity-within-constraint about it, she says. Like a controlled splashiness. And the idea is fresh in her mind, thanks to Patrick Mele's room at the 2024 Kips Bay Decorator Show House in New York, with its snazzy floral carpet by Mele for Aronsons. I cant stop thinking about the concept, says OMalley, who adds that the style is poised for a comeback. One trippy example can be found on the cover of ADs September/October 1972 issue, in a bedroom designed by Stephen Chase of Arthur Elrod Associates.

AD, June 1980

Draped fabric can give a wall texture and interest, says Alison Levasseur, ADs global interiors and garden editor. Take note from this room featured in AD September 1977 that a draped fabric can be used in combination with a wallpaper or paint, she advises.

And thats not all: Shutters indoors are chic! she adds. I adore this Brunschwig & Fils floral bedroom on the cover of AD from June 1980. The white shutters are the perfect charming window treatment for this stylish California ranch. Theres also charm in some of the rooms softer accessories: Im crazy for the gingham cat and dog pillows too! Things that make you happy never go out of fashion.

What Not to Miss at the Inaugural Design Miami Los Angeles - Architectural Digest

In the beginning, it was personal for Bo Sundius and his wife, Hisako Ichiki, partners of the La Canada, Californiabased architecture firm Bunch Design. In 2012, when they designed their first in-law suite, or granny flat, it was in their own backyard, and it was for Sundiuss father, who had Alzheimers disease. A 720-square-foot one-bedroom they dubbed the Elysian Cottage, the accessory dwelling unit, or ADU, allowed Sundius to help care for his father.

A few years later, in 2017, when California enacted new laws that helped promote the construction of ADUs as a solution to the states housing shortage, Sundius and Ichiki embraced the design of in-law suites as a key component of their practice. It was a prophetic decision because ADUs have since boomed in popularity: 23,000 permits were issued in California in 2022, more than quadruple the number in 2017. In-law suites can generate much-needed rental income, but they can also enable intergenerational living, housing parents who can age in place and help with childcare or adult children who arent yet financially independent or have disabilities. As Sundius says: In-law relationships are always better when they have their own kitchen.

The Elysian CottageBunch Designs name for the granny flat, or in-law suite, they devised for their own homeuses tricks like lowered walls to create an open, airy feeling.

For Sundius and Ichiko, the process of designing a granny flat poses an intriguing challenge: How do you make something small feel large?, as Sundius puts it. (In Los Angeles, ADUs are typically limited to 1,200 square feet.) For one, by running clerestory windows across nearly the full span of the structure. People look to the corners to assess how big a space is, and if those corners have windows, you blur the edges and create a space that feels inherently light, he says.

For interior bedroom walls, Sundius and Ichiki achieve a similar effect by stopping them short of the ceiling, which is usually vaulted, creating a similar sensation of airiness. And they typically site the ADU so that it offers views not of the main house but of a palm tree in the backyard or the mountains beyond. Any time youre recalibrating your eyesight from near to far, youre getting a sense of distance, says Sundius. And so we can make these small spaces feel much larger than they are.

To create privacy and/or separation, Sundius and Ichiko rely on a couple tricks: using a staircase in a split-level unit as a screen between the kitchen and living room, for instance. Or designing one and a quarter baths: a toilet and sink in one bathroom, which can be used by guests, and a sink, shower, and tub in a second bathroom, a private space for residents.

Just as Sundius and Ichiko designed an ADU for Sundiuss father, many of their clients were also embracing the intergenerational concept. One homeowners parents sold their Long Island home and used part of the proceeds to build an ADU in the backyard of their daughters Hollywood house, ultimately splitting their time there and with their son in Hawaii; another clients parents made a similar move from New York City to the backyard of their sons property in Los Feliz. Such projects can result in design by committee, with the architects responding to the (sometimes) differing opinions of the homeowners and their in-laws. But the move has clear benefits, including the fact that elder care is no longer a bicoastal conundrum.

Housing a senior resident, of course, requires an accessible design. For Cathy Purple Cherry of Annapolis, Marylandbased Purple Cherry Architects, the mother of an adult son on the Autism spectrum and sibling of a brother with Down syndrome, accessibility underpins all her work. When designing an in-law suite for aging parents, creating an accessible path is essential: doors with widths of two feet ten inches that are wheelchair accessible, for instance, and showers that are flush to the floor. I know it wants to be sexy, Cherry says of the swank ADU designs that populate Instagram. But the underlying details of designing a space where a loved one can live their final yearsthose are anything but.

Why the 'Granny Flat' Is the Next Big Home Amenity - Architectural Digest

Doors will soon be open to the 49th edition of the Kips Bay Decorator Show House New York, where the work of 24 top designers and architects is on marvelous display tomorrow through May 28. This year, the show house inhabits a 12,000-square-foot, 1904 neo-Georgian town house located at 125 East 65th Street. The particularly lovelyand unusually widebuilding was designed by architect Charles A. Platt, whose clients included Astors and Roosevelts.

The ticketed event is among the premier design events of the year and a fundraiser for the Kips Bay Boys & Girls Club, whose mission is to provide educational and developmental programs to more than 10,000 children. The show houses have raised over $30 million to date, and its made possible thanks to a number of generous sponsorsnamely, for 2024, Artistic Tile, Benjamin Moore, Bokara, Christopher William, Cosentino, Dedar Milano, E. Braun & Co, Franois & Co., JennAir, I&G Construction Group, Kohler, Kravet Inc, Made Goods, Marc Phillips, New York Design Center, Phillip Jeffries, Pooky Lighting, Rug & Kilim Showroom, Sanderson, Silver Lining, Susans Jewelry, the Shade Store, and Vaughan.

For participating designers of the Kips Bay Decorator Show House New York, the carte blanche assignment is a chance to express their current musings. Show house interiors are meant to be liveable and a reflection of your work, but theyre also meant to have a bit of fantasy, says Karen Williams of St. Charles New York, who designed the homes copper-infused kitchen.

Don't miss the AD PRO-exclusive workshopPhoto Finish: How to Showcase Your Project

In classic show house fashion, that sense of whimsy and fantasy comes to major fruition in the homes jewel-box-size spacesstairwells, hallways, and other pass-throughs go all-out in star treatment. Coming through the front door of the Kips Bay Decorator Show House New York, guests are greeted by Bennett Leifer Interiors Reframed Foyer, a completely carpeted space, in collaboration with Edward Fields Carpet Makers. Not only are the walls, floors, and ceiling carpetedso are a niche and door casings. Swati Goorha Designs wraps the homes main stairwell in a galactic world that transitions from dark to light as guests work their way upstairs, and on the top floor is a moody, water-inspired hallway by Huma Sulaiman called Dream Machine. A custom Phillip Jeffries wall covering reminiscent of the midnight sky and clouds wraps the room, giving just enough shimmer to reflect the spaces star players: two sculptural pendant lights by Jeremy Anderson.

The dark and dreamy spaces make way to light, bright, breathable takes throughout the home. Upon reaching the second-floor landing, guests are greeted by two stunning artworks by Raphaela Vogel, a set of ethereal resin urn shapes cast from architectural details on a building in Berlin. The works are part of Lucinda Loya Interiors Enchanted Roots foyer, which is covered in a neutral wallpaper drafted from 80 images of 18th-century etchings that were combined to form the scenic view of upstate New York. The design is a collaboration with Flavor Paperand it took over six weeks of digital work to achieve. Elsewhere, the Le Fumoir Fminin lounge by show house first-timer Workshop/APD evokes a sense of calm, courtesy of plaster-coated waved foam panels, and Jeremiah Brent Design offers a quiet moment for work and respite in his study, an ode to Hathor, the Egyptian goddess of beauty.

But this year, it was the show houses bedrooms that stole our hearts. In Patrick Meles On a Clear Day bedroom, crisp white architectural surrounds developed with Bories & Shearron draw attention to the wall-to-wall floral carpet by Mele for Aronsons (now available to shop) and the canopy bed fabricated in a corresponding floral print by Schumacher. My hope is for the room to feel strong, glamorous, fresh, clear, and vibrant: timeless, yet of this time, says Mele, who dedicated the incredibly chic space to the inspiring women in his life. The femme influences continue in Shawn Hendersons Steel Sanctuary, designed with Yves Saint Laurent muse Betty Catroux in mind. Sculptural steel furnishingsstatement case goods by Paul Evans and the Campana Brothers among themare seductively sophisticated against the soft pink walls and upholstered ceiling, trimmed with a fringe crown detailing. And nearby, in the Cotswolds Retreat by Mikel Welch Designs, limewash-inspired walls crafted with Benjamin Moores Rainy Afternoon and Intrigue (and a TikTok tutorial) grounds the cozy retreat complete with unicorn tapestry and a vintage hand-carved Wretling sofa by Lawton Mull.

Elsewhere, color and pattern pack a punch. In A Dining Room of Ones Own by Kit Kemp Design Studio, walls are covered by an ornate tapestry, designed by Kemp for G P & J Baker. Something pulls you in at every turn, including hand-embroidered flower faces on the back of wing chairs, a childrens clock by Maarten Baas, and a series of contemporary pieces sourced from Maison Gerard. In the Wine Lounge + Garden Level Corridor by Beth Diana Smith Interior Design, a textural wall covering from Kravet serves as a buzzy backdrop to a series of bright, contemporary artworks and wine bottles. A knockout area rug by Stark Carpet and fixtures by Vaughan Lighting also punctuate the space.

And, finally, theres nothing like a bathroom in full glam mode. Kohlers new Heritage Green plumbing fixtures make a statement in bathrooms throughout the home. The centerpiece of Vanessa Deleons Smoke & Mirrors setting is a clawfoot Kohler bathtub in a decadent green, further enhanced with Artistic Tile mosaic flooring in a geometric pattern that summons the spirit of Art Deco. And in Benjamin Vandivers bathroom, the minty Aspen Green fixtures fit right in with the interiors collected aesthetic, dotted with artworks, pottery, and antique pieces from Vandivers personal collection.

SKITTLES LITTLES: Don't Just Taste The Rainbow Live In It With New Space Designed By Interior Decorator Dani Klaric - Culturess

ONE sought-after interior decorator shared her top tricks for designing a space on a budget without sacrificing style.

Her techniques can help transform your home into ultra luxe for less - much less.

2

Sarah Swatez, founder of Sarah Elizabeth Design, bills herself as being a "top New Jersey interior designer."

She explained in a blog post that she wants to help people get "real clear" on where they should spend and where they should save when designing their homes.

"Over the course of a decade plus designing homes in New Jersey and beyond, weve developed methods in the way we choose furniture and decor for homes and want to share the reasons why, and how, you can implement the same methods," she wrote.

For young professionals - or anyone else - who "craves an elevated design," she knows just how to mix luxury items with "budget-appropriate" furniture.

One of her biggest tips for sticking to a budget is saving on rugs in high-traffic areas such as the living room and mudroom.

"We like Revival and Ruggable for higher-end looking and seriously washable rugs, with some great patterns," she said.

Swatez added that you don't have to break the bank when picking out accent furniture.

"Accent furniture is by no means an afterthought, yet we have found many great looking metal side tables and drink stands, and even marble coffee tables, at West Elm and CB2," she said.

For example, West Elm sells a 44-inch Santa Rosa Rectangle coffee table for $349.

Available in a driftwood finish, the table boasts a "unique" cross base to complement the streamlined top.

It is also described as giving a "high-end design at a great price."

The furniture features a natural wood grain and is extra durable.

Swatez also shared ways to save money on decorative items.

"There are such great ceramic and glass vases, candles, and candle holders, and objects out there to style your entry console, coffee table, or kids' rooms," she said.

"For kids' rooms, there seem to be endless fun and even handmade wall art and decor out there from Crate and Kids and even Etsy," she continued.

"This can also include cotton or linen throw blankets for the arm of your sofas during the warmer months."

Bed frames and headboards can also be budget-friendly buys if you know where to look.

She recommended shopping at mid-priced furniture retailers like Lulu and Georgia, Crate and Barrel, and One Kings Lane for upholstered beds.

Interior designer JudyHoang shared her furniture tips with The U.S. Sun.

Swatez noted that she considers her clients' lifestyles when making design choices, saying many of them are "busy professionals."

For homes with children and/or pets, she likes to incorporate "durable fabrics" and "floor coverings" into the overall look.

She explained that "this can mean investing in custom items like a sofa with a washable velvet" or a "washable pattern rug."

The expert also recommended purchasing pieces with patterns that can "hide stains."

In September, Skittles announced its "littlest" innovation with Skittles Littles, a teeny, tiny version of its candy that it promises is more "poppable" than before.

"Expanding our portfolio with Skittles Littles allows us to create even more pleasantly perplexing experiences and inspire moments of everyday happiness for fans," Ro Cheng, the marketing director at Mars, shared at the time. "We can't wait for our fans to experience this tiny treat and Taste the Rainbow in a whole new way." Now, not only can fans eat the teensy candies, they can live in an equally adorable micro-apartment inspired by Skittles Littles. For free. For an entire year.

To honor this new candy addition, Skittles partnered with interior decorator Dani Klari, known for her love of maximalist design, to transform a micro-apartment in New York City into a "rainbow-filled masterpiece." And rather than just keep it all for themselves, Skittles is giving the apartment to one very lucky fan to live in rent-free for an entire year.

The Skittles Littles Living apartment feels like a small escape from reality with the rainbow colors and maximalist decor, Klari shared. Living in a small space doesnt mean you have to think small when it comes to style. I had so much fun transforming the Skittles Littles Living apartment with bold colors and funky furniture.

According to Skittles, the apartment is 353 square feet and is located in Manhattans first micro-unit building, Carmel Place. While its square footage may not be huge, its style is.

In the bathroom, the new tenant will find polka-dotted floors mixed with delightful cloud wallpaper and a trippy shower curtain for added color. The fun flows into the kitchen, made up of rainbow-hued cabinets paired with some surprisingly subdued granite countertops. This opens up into the living room, where a bright green entertainment center faces a deep purple sofa, surrounded by plenty of Skittles-inspired art.

"Micro in size but maximized in aesthetic and functionality, the apartment makes the most out of every nook and cranny," Skittles added about the home.

Skittles Is Giving Fans the Chance to Live in This Colorful Micro-Apartment Rent-Free for a Year - Yahoo Lifestyle Australia

LED light strips give Bilal the ick because they tend to look cheap, when that is not the desired effect. They do not look expensive, they dont look high-end, they dont feel like elevated decor, he says. They literally just feel like you ordered an LED strip off Amazon and stuck it to your wall. And thats exactly what it is.

Vivien of Posh Pennies is particularly averse to battery-operated sconces, detesting the fact that they require remotes and batteries, and that they eventually stop getting used because they require recharging. If youre serious about where you want your light, then get it wired, pop in a smart bulb, put it on a schedule, and call it a day! So worth it, the interior design blogger and YouTuber explains. Bilal agrees that smart light bulbs are a much better alternative, especially if youre looking for the ability to easily change the mood of a room with lighting.

As sharing interior design on social media gains more and more traction, and we become accustomed to seeing beautiful rooms on the reg, it can be tempting to focus only on what looks good onscreen. Imani Keal, a design blogger who specializes in renter-friendly decor and DIY, often wonders whats going on beyond the frame of a quirky DIY space she sees on TikTok. They sometimes dont show the project in the context of the rest of the room or apartment, and its often because that project only looks good from one angle or as a vignette, she explains.

Its important to make sure a fun project actually works with the rest of your living space, rather than just conforming to the latest trend. The purpose of creating a beautiful space is so that it looks and feels warm and welcoming in real life and on the internet, not just in five-second clips, she adds. Garrett Le Chic fully agrees. As an interior designer, hes all about making updates to your home that are consistent with its architecture.

Renovating to change the style of your house in the long term doesnt always make the most sense because it just requires a lot more effort, a lot more money, a lot more work than is really necessary, he says. When, if you took the core elements, the backbone of what the architectural style of your house is, and you apply that, it works better in the long term.

Theres nothing like a good knickknack or piece of art to really liven up a room. With so many affordable online and brick-and-mortar home-goods stores, its easier than ever to find what you need to add in a space. This is both a blessing as a curse, as it means that now more than ever, theres a plethora of mass-produced items with no personality taking up space and collecting dust over time.

On the subject of word art, Phoenix has one question: Who is buying this? He continues, I know the Live, Love, Laugh signs of the early 2000s have faded out, but now its like very weird quotes on boards that people are spending between 10 and 20 dollars on. The amount of staged homes that Ive seen from real estate agents that have those too.
