THE ORIGINAL Shiny silver wallpaper
with a black-and-white trellis pattern sets
a high-contrast backdrop for this loft. A
daybed with a graphic mix of designs
calls to mind the daring sensibilities of ’60s
designer David Hicks, known for using
pattern and sharp contrast to create
glamour with a barbed edge.
THE UPDATE While designers like Hicks
and the creator of this space used contrast
to build a sense of rhythm,
today’s look relies on crisp
lines and angles. Moving away
from a monochrome palette
and blending warm metals
with cool softens the look while
maintaining plenty of fl ash.

Silver, copper, and gold
spotlight geometry’s glam side.
